R33 or R34 Brembo brakes question
Will the R33 or R34 Brembo Brake fit (bolt on) the 350z? I can get the front and rear calipers for cheap since my friends are in Thailand right now. Any inrterest. I can get at least 3-4 sets.

From what I have been told, brembo does not use the same oem spec caliper on more than one application

true,
example... B15 Sentra brembo's use different piston sizes etc... There was a user on a maxima forum who put the B15 brembo's on, he found that the brakes were smaller then his OE brakes...
you always want to use something that is tuned for the car.. .example.. stop tech brake calipers which have the proper piston sizes to ballance out the 350z best... etc etc...
They are both very different.
Neither caliper, R33 or R34, will bolt directly to the 350Z mounting points.
Not to mention that the piston diameters are also different.
I had a customer a few weeks ago that had R34 calipers and was trying to use them with OEM Brembo Track Model discs. He was insistent that it was a direct bolt on, and when he found out it wasn't he was still insistent on making his own brackets. He finally gave up...sold his parts on e-bay...and bought the 13.1" 4-piston Gran Turismo Kit.
Funny ending to the story...I got the call yesterday from the guy who bought the parts off of e-bay. He's trying to put them on a G35.
