AK, it looks like Niko's (myfirstz) car. I know Niko got his wheels at Forged and lived semi near by so it's possible it's his car. Maybe he'll stop in here.

Hey AK,

Its my car. I'm gonna take more pics and post later. Yea, the guys @ Forged did an awesome job. A special thanks to Kerry who worked overtime to ensure the job was done properly and thoroughly! Thanks to Sharif too who stayed late to tune my car (UpRev Reflash) for Import Face Off this weekend in Montgomery AL. I plan to drag her and the BBK should help me stop, no problems! I'll post the Dyno numbers up later. Right now, I'm working. Well, supposedly working

Very nice! Seems like the MSRP is quite a bit more than the 350Z kits. I have the 13.1" with four pot calipers on the front and 12.9" two pot calipers on my 350Z and the MSRP was quite a bit less. That being said the StopTechs you just installed are huge.

MSRP is higher mostly because it's a larger front rotor, and a 6 piston caliper. If they offered a smaller setup for the 370Z, it would be on par with the kit you bought for your 350Z.

Thanks Sharif, that is what I thought about the front brakes. Does StopTech offer a smaller front brake kit for the 370Z, like a four piston 14" setup?

Yes. You can get either a 4-piston w/14" rotor or 6-piston w/15" rotor for the front.

Thanks. I figured as much, but I couldn't find anything on StopTech's website about a BBK for the 370Z.

The 370z StopTech BBK options are as follows:



It's pretty cut and dry. The sport brakes apply to any model w/ the sport package.

Hope this helps

It does indeed help. Unfortunately it means that StopTech is out for me as I wont be able to run an 18" wheel up front. AP Racing it is.
