Yes... Several others and myself have done this set up. You need an adapter, look up CZP Akebono BBK. The 40th Anniversary 370z came with red calipers.

Akebono brakes were introduced for the 350Z more than 2 years ago. Search here for "Akebono."

Dave you mean 370z right? The last year of the 350 was 2008 and 4pot 350's were all Brembo's. So 2 years would be.... 2009.

Dave... I know, I have a set of Akebono's . Just the way you posted could possibly imply that Akebono's came OEM on a 350z.
