Default New Akebono 14" Big Brake Kit for 03-08 350Z, Kits Start at $1495

These 14" 370Z kits are now ready for 03-08 350Z, 03-07 G35 Coupes, and 03-06 G35 Sedans. Brackets have been tested, and they fit perfect. Stock Brake Lines, or upgraded SS lines will work on these systems. More options for Rotors and Pads as they become available. For those guys who are planning on painting their calipers a different color, it's cheaper to buy the Infiniti Rear Setup, same calipers, just cheaper for some reason: Akebono Infiniti Setup

In the Media, Akebono Kit in Modified Magazine:



Need to check and make sure they will fit your rims, no problem, you can use our wheel fitment Template:

Rear Wheel Fitment Template

CZP Akebono Nissan 03-08 350Z / Infiniti G35 03-06 Sedan, 03-07 Coupe Front Bracket Adapters: $195

This is awesome! Can anyone give an objective comparison of this kit to a Stoptech kit? This kit is about half the price so even if it comes close that's pretty cool.

We are actually going to be tracking a Akebono setup on a 350Z in a few weeks here, so we'll see how well they hold up to Stotpech and other Big Brake Kits.

If these hold up decently at the track, this is the setup I'll be getting...

when you guys test this, are you gonna post the results in this thread or make a new one in the "Brakes and Suspension" forum?

gotta love a good economy of scale. hopefully this proves worthy.

I haven't see anything on the market yet, but they are coming soon. We will have 2pc rotors ready here in about 2 weeks

I just noticed there aren't any adaptor plates pictured for the rear, are they not required?
