"High Performance Brake Systems Available for the 2003 350Z

Torrance, Ca. . . . StopTech LLC announces a series of brake upgrade kits for the 2003 Nissan 350Z as the latest addition to its line of Balanced Brake upgrades. StopTech has released two front-upgrade systems and a four-wheel upgrade for the 350Z. StopTech offers a 332x32mm front upgrade that works with the stock 7-spoke 17-inch wheel. For customers with the 18-inch performance wheels or the 18-inch Track wheels StopTech has a 355x32 front kit. Each front kit includes floating directional rotors with 7075 T6 billet Aluminum directional hats, front DOT compliant stainless steel brake lines and four piston ST40 calipers with high performance brake pads. Each front kit is balanced with the stock rear system to provide optimum stopping distances and better pedal modulation than other upgrades.

The four wheel brake system includes a pair of 355x32mm front and a pair of 355x32mm rear, high performance AeroRotors® with directional billet aluminum hats, four, four piston StopTech ST40 calipers, caliper adapter brackets, high performance brake pads and stainless steel DOT compliant braided brake lines for front and rear. The StopTech 350Z four-wheel kit is a direct bolt on replacement of the stock system and is compatible with the OE drum parking brake and vehicle’s master cylinder.

The two-piece StopTech AeroRotor® assembly includes a floating hat system that resists coning during heating and cooling cycles. The patent pending directional hats induces more airflow over the outer surface of the rotors, providing additional cooling, improving overall system performance, and extending pad life.

The ST40 Caliper features a patented bridge that makes the caliper up to two times stiffer than similar designs.

The StopTech Nissan 350Z balanced brake upgrade maintains optimum front to rear brake torque balance and is compatible with the stock master cylinder. StopTech achieves optimum front to rear balance by sizing the caliper pistons specifically for the 350Z versus other systems that use off the shelf calipers designed for different platforms. Benefits of balanced brake systems are shorter stopping distances, better brake pedal modulation and less pedal travel

The retail price for the Nissan 350Z 4 wheel Brake System: $4995. The retail price for the Nissan 332 350Z upgrade is $1995. The retail price for the front only 355 350Z upgrade is $2595."

Note that that is for all four wheels. Compare that to the Brembo front brakes only upgrade. As aftermarket stuff goes, that isn't that out of the norm.

BTW, I not really that knowledgable on brands for suspension upgrades, but I'd say if I did, that Tein System (on the Streetsports.com website)with the EDFC (Electronic Dampening Force Controller) would be pretty sweet to have if it worked well. Probably work great to get rid of that bouncing problem some of you guys complain about, while still having the ability to tighten things up at will.

Monkey Man, are those wheel specific controls (or even axle specific), or do you adjust all wheels at the same rate.

I thought you might offer slotted and drilled rotors for that price.

Jesus!!! Glad I bought a track model. Noticed no brake fade at all with nearly 700 track miles on the car so far!! Even with passengers aboard.

Their AeroRotor is "available in standard, drilled or slotted finish."

and it's a no-cost option to the 350z kit

what are our stock rotor sizes for non track models? can we get braded brake lines only? can we get better calipers for our stock rotors? I would much rather use stock rotors because they are cheeper to get as an off the shelf item.
