YEA!! some belated b-day gifts i bought myself, brembos and ss lines!!
hey guys,
well as some of ya know, i did purchase a set of track brembos for my car and i also ordered some ss lines.
anyways:
brembos: came off a track model, 2 k miles on it, wrecked...poor car, porr guy(my friend) mommy and daddy bought him a e46 m3 instead
lines:
"Stainless steel braided teflon brake lines improve braking performance by eliminating expansion of the stock brake hose under hard braking. Our high quality stainless steel braided teflon hose from TechnaFit come with a blue cover to prolong life of the hose for street use, the cover prevents dirt from getting into the stainless steel braid which can rub against the teflon liner causing the hose to fail.
The Techna Fit brake lines for the 350Z are also built to OEM specs, with blocks separating the front brake lines into 3 sections just like the OEM brake lines, which reduces flex and torque on the lines under suspension travel. Cheaper brake lines that use a single line with brackets in place of the blocks. "
build quality of the lines are the best i have seen.
edit: i bought the lines from www.splparts.com first the lines were out of stock so they had them drop shipped at no extra charge. i said fine, then they shipped them to the wrong addy, i wasnt mad because they were so nice to inform me of the problem, and they said they would 2nd day them to me at no charge. recieved them and am very happy with them. splparts has some good prices and products

hey daytona,
congrats on the brembos! The fronts are easya s hell to install. The rears might give you some trouble.
1. Make sure you get the rear caliper bolts from your friend. The stock bolts which mount the caliper to teh suspension won't fit.
2. Depending on how " OEM" you want the car to look, you will have to order/scavage the rear rotor dust shield. Because the rear brembo's are larger in diameter, so is the dust shield.
If you don't want an "OEM" look, just get some tinms snips and cut off the lip.
Any questions just PM me.
