Will 06 Brakes work on our 02-05 Z's?
What will need to be changed?
Is it simply a matter of swapping the calipers and rotors?
Or do you think we'll need to swap the whole axle?
I want the OEM larger brakes!

Are the calipers going to be bigger too or just the rotors? I have not heard of any detailed specs on them, just heard they are bigger for '06 on the non Brembo'd models.

That's what I'm wondering, I'm wondering if our calipers will clear the larger diameter rotors.
I'm HOPING they do....cheap brake upgrade!

They are basicly the same brakes as the Maxima / Altima SE-R

The new G's got bigger 2 piston brakes - I did a double take the first time I saw them - I read that the pads are the same as the M45 - so ODDS ARE the calipers and rotors were lifted also but that is not a guarantee
Is that what is going on the new Z's also??

Anything else involved?

For the bigger rotors you will have to change the caliper too...
There is a guy who put the 2pot off the G35 2005 on his 2003...
He is having some issues... I have been going back and forth with him about everything to try and figure things out...
I think you need to use the new brake booster off the 2005 G35 or 2006 350z

BTW, do you know what kind of issues? I would assume loss of braking power...without changing to the updated booster.
