Very interested in getting an Infiniti kit, with blue painted calipers and Nissan logo for the Z32. Do you have pics by chance? What does the Nissan logo look like???

I don't have any pics, I will have more pics once we get more custom ones done. The Nissan Logo will look like the Logo on the 370Z Calipers now, if you want a custom logo, we can also do that, $50 extra.

Sounds good. I'll want it just like the 370Z has. On your site there is no option to pick the Infiniti variant for the cheaper price. Whats the difference in price when going Infiniti? Can I also get upgraded pads with my order instead of the regular pads?

Not sure what you mean, all the Infiniti kits are going to be cheaper then the Nissan Kits. The Powder Coating is going to be the same price for whatever kit you choose. Upgraded Pads are Extra.

Well since I will want them in blue, I would want to just buy the Infiniti set instead of the regular Nissan set + the $350 paiting fee... So if I get upgraded pads do you credit some of it for not getting the OEM pads?

Thanks!

Default New brakes for my ride!

Hello fellow Z members,

I was recently on vacation and visited Concept Z Performance in Phoenix, AZ.

I met Coz, David and another third helpful person(I did not get his name).

They are very professional and helpful. They helped me load the parts(They were very heavy).

Upon our arrival home, I scheduled an install at Corner3 Garage in Lake Forest, CA.

The install went smoothly. Ex Nissan master technician Steve had the brakes without any problems.

The brakes were bled with Motul fluid and test driven.

The real test drive was heading back to Oceanside during rush hour.

The brakes worked without any problems. I felt that I was putting less pressure to the brake pedal with the quicker braking.

The rear brake dust covers were trimmed off.

There are no brake squeeks. I have not heard any unsual noises. This is from blasting down the 5 fwy from Camp Pendleton to the stop and go traffic in Oceanside.

Here are some pictures:

This an excellent BBK.

Thank you very much to Concept Z Performance and Corner3 Garage.

Thank you for your time,
Lboy06.

Coz, is there anything special/custom about the rotors that come with the kit? Will any 14"/13.8" rotor compatible with the 370z work?

The reason I ask is, I'm in Australia and want to save the cost of shipping heavy rotors when I can buy it locally. And also, I want to have the option of selecting other rotors when mine get worn out rather than forced to buy a certain one.

Couple of quick questions for ya:

Do you know if the kit will interfere with 18x9.5 +15/18x10.5 +15 Enkei RPF1's?

Will all wheels that fit on 370zs (with the sports package) fit on the kit? That is, if I can be sure that the enkeis fit on a 370z, does that mean the wheels will definitely fit a 350z with the akebonos? Or is there something different when the kits when fitted onto a 350z that may reduce wheel clearance more than on a 370z?

Are the akebono decals for sale?

And how much would shipping of the no rotor kit (G35-41000-AKI03NR) cost to Canberra, Australia 2615?
How much extra is shipping if you include rotors?

You can use any Rotors that are specifically made for the 370Z and G37 Sport Models only. If any wheels you put on a 370Z w/ the Akebono Kit fit, then they will also fit a 350Z w/ the Akebono Kit. I can't confirm fitment of any wheels, different offsets, sizes, etc, template is your best friend

We do not sell the Akebono Decals, they are only provided on the calipers when you powder coat them. Check your PM for shipping price.

Default Getting a Set Soon!

Props to Concept Z for this wonderful upgrade. Any word on the 40th anniversary red calipers? And for those owners who got their calipers powder coated by Concept Z, how is the quality? How are your piston seals after the powder coat? Are the letters perfectly straight?

Sorry, I have selective OCD.
