Yeah you should definitely post which rotors and calipers by part number, and whether or not there is front and rear, this way no one makes a mistake and buys the wrong ones.

I am looking to start pricing pieces. If by the time I put everything thing together I have only saved a few hundred, I would rather spend that money on a kit, such as Stop Tech, that has tech support, warranty, etc.. My 2¢

I would have to agree with you on that. Items like warranty and support,etc ARE worth some extra $, but it all depends on how much is saved.

Default parts list

Removed since some morons are ungrateful like the post below!!!

I hope you meant to say 4 pot. I don't think anyone interested in this kit wants anything less than a 4 pot kit. Some are hoping for a 6 pot.

+1 Thanks for doing this. Sign me up. We just need a list of part numbers for the rest of the kit.

So I'm a "moron" for pointing out what I had hoped was a simple typo. I guess I'm a moron for questioning that you are in fact building a big brake kit with 2 pistons calipers. My bad.

Welcome to the MIS-Information highway!

Looking forward to seeing the Zinc plated aluminum brackets!

I'm doing the bracket, not a kit. I guess I could look into this. But I have no experience with this and would need assistance. I can locate all of the pieces and sell them, but that defeats the purpose of this project. If I do it, I'm charging for it. Still interested? LOL!

Yes. But I want the brackets first. Make sure I'm on that list for the brackets please.

For me:

We do need a list of part numbers.

What part numbers ar needed for the 350zbrakes (6pot front, 4 pot rear) and then the same but 4 pot front? Any ideas? I guess I could buy a set and reverse engineer it, but I'm cheap.

There was a parts list here but he took it off. I'm not exactly why he felt so offended by EnthuZ's post
