Brakes aren't complex. If the R35 has those brembos, it can't be that hard to get around to retrofitting them to a Z34. It sure may be costly but that's not what I'm asking. If it's a matter of just buying a spindle, bearing, caliper, rotor and pads, that's not that bad. No offence to Z owners, but 95% of them slam their Zs, put Tomei's on, and CR2Ps.

If I wanted some great brakes for the price, I'd stick with the Akebonos and put better rotors and pads on, maybe even an aftermarket BBK designed for the Z, but that's not what I'm asking. I'm asking, what needs to be done to get the swap done? Can the ABS unit from the R35 be swapped onto the Z if the Z ABS pump can't keep up? Does it need a brake master? Do the lines need to be completely redone with large tubing?
