JDM Lover Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 As I have had no luck selling my JDM Nismo, I'm toying with the idea of stripping some of the Nismo/expensive bits and putting them on my roadster version T, then selling the Nismo with standard OEM stuff back on it at a lower price. Swapping the wheels, Nimso exhaust is simple enough. But the real issue is the Brembo's - can anyone advise me if it is possible to put the Brembo's onto the version T and put the OEM standard brakes onto the version S without too many complications? Cheers folks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers folks Yes you can. The only issue you will have is the dust guards which sit behind the disc, the JDM version is much smaller so will need to be removed to accept the bigger disc.

So what parts from the Brembo brake kit would be carried over to the other Z? Calipers are obvious, but are the rotors the same size? If not, I would change those over as well. One more thing - are the caliper brackets different between the Brembo brakes and the standard 350Z brakes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexx Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 My advice would be to give Phil a call to chat about it Easier than trying to sort it out via posts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcash5 Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 To do the conversion you need, calipers, rear bolts, discs pads hoses and an adaptors for the hoses Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blacka01 Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 First dibs on the Nismo exhaust if you're selling! Can collect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDM Lover Posted November 10, 2008 Author Share Posted November 10, 2008 Thanks guys, especially Big Phil for the helpful advice - if the Nismo doesnt sell in the next 2 weeks, I'll be stripping all the goodies out and putting them on my roadster. Sorry the exhaust won't be up for sale, unless you buy the whole car that is! Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
