Why do that when you can spend half as much on the fake covers that say Brembo

Obviously it was a joke, but if you are already out of your price range I wouldn't suggest bidding any higher than you already have. Good luck.

With 3 days left, I suspect the price will be a LOT higher.

He doesn't mention it, but I believe you need the hoses that go with them to use them on a regular 350Z.

A good set of brembos usually go for $1500-2000, so a deal could be had... also you do need the brembo lines on a non-brembo car - most people usually just upgrade to SS lines when they do the swap (I did - used stoptech SS lines).

Also - make sure you have all the bolts/hardware, as I think it is the rear bolts are different on the brembo cars vs. non brembo.

Those rear rotors look basty, I guess just rust from sitting?

I don't trust sleezebay though.

Just a word of advice... If you see an auction that you are interested in don't post it on this web site (unless it's your own auction.) All your going to do is drive the price up.
