Default 2006 350z Brembo

I just picked up 4 Brembo calipers to upgrade my 2006 Enthusiast. They were used but got a great deal. 4 piston front and 2 piston rear. I just ordered Goodridge SS lines and I know I needed new rear bolts for the calipers due to a different bolt thread. They are on order as well.
My question is on the rotors...I have 18 inch OEM rims. Can I use a 14 inch rotor in the front and 13 in the rear. I am looking for a one piece rotors. Price doesn't matter but I need them drilled and slotted. I just want to fill the inside of the rim. My stock rotors are 13 front 12 rear...
Any link to the rotors would be greatly appreciated!

If they are OEM brembos you can't use larger rotors without caliper relocation brackets.

Yea they are the stock ones...I was told that...so I guess the 13 front and 12.5 rear will do...

Any links for a one piece rotor with the black e-coating on them???

Caliper position is fixed. You cannot swap 13 for 14 or 14 to 13 inch rotors. It will not fit.

Street racing? Who are you Vin Diesel? You have a lot to learn.

ibtl.

You don't need brembo or ss lines for street racing. Hell you'd be better off with the 03-05 single piston calipers. Less rotating mass. Just saying op. If you're hardcore about street racing then consider non-brembos.

Like mentioned, you can't go with bigger rotor sizes without modifications.
Do a google search for replacement rotors.

I recommend getting a rebuild kit to replace old seals and gaskets for the calipers.

The Z wasn't made for street racing.. I think you'd be best fitted in an RSX.

Not really. I agree with thekinn. RSX should be what you're standing by. and one of the things we knows is..... It's not how you stand by your car... it's how you race it.
