http://www.fourproducts.com/ makes a brake cooler kit and is wanting to make one for the 350Z with brembos.

He needs someone to to volunteer their car to do some test fitting once he has a prototype. I've already supplied him with some used brembo brake pads.

This is a great product that will lower brake pad temps by up to 120 degrees and also help them cool down twice as fast as normal.

If anyone lives around or near Glendale CA and would like to test fit the brake cooler, PM me or email Joe at jrd@fourproducts.com

 

oh and you'd need to have 18 inch wheels so he can make sure it clears the wheel

 

How about 06 regular size brakes?

 

he's only making them for the brembos to my knowlege

but if there was a big enough demand, he might consider it if people emailed him

the brembos have been the same always, but the 2003-2005 and 2006 standard brake sizes are different. I'm not sure if he'd think it's worth the effort when the Z is going to be changing again in 2008

 

Well i'm willing to be a guiney pig. The stock 06' brakes are pretty big, I think the rotor is the same size as the 03-05 brembos.

 

it has less to do with rotor size and more to do with caliper design/size and brakepad size as far as what Joe is going to be concerned with, not just the clearance between the rotor/caliper to the wheel

shoot him an email and see if he'd be interested

Just a side note, the 2006 standard rotors are actually a bit smaller than the brembos though - especially the rears.
Front 12.6" x 1.10"
Rear 12.1" x .63 "

Brembos are:
Front 12.8" x 1.18"
Rear 12.7" x .87"

 

You say potato I say throttle body, same thing. lol

 

I will do it....

 

Darnit, are you stealing my thunder? j/k

 

I will be back in Cali on the 12th. I have 18inch Nismo wheels, so that is no problem

 

I saw these in person at the Motorsports autocross, talked to the guy about them.

He can do the brembos because they have an open slot in the top side (where you load the pads in), something the non brembos dont have.

I live in Burbank, I own a Track Model 350Z with brembos and the rays 18" wheels. Willing to be a guiney pig... do i get a free set of brake coolers?

 

USN HM 350Z and Speed_Force_350, shoot Joe an email or if you want, just PM me your contact info and I'll relay it over to him

I have no idea when his prototype will be ready. I just mailed out the brake pads today and he'll get them on thursday.
