Caliper Details for US Z
Is anyone with a stock US model Z and the factory Akebono sports brakes able to fill in the attached form and send it back to me please.
I just require it because I want to see if they differ from the Australian market Z, so I can further see if I can get the Work Meister S13P wheels custom made for my Z. Would appreciate it alot, thanks. |

also as mentioned by cooltoy, just go to your local dealer and get the part #
compare that to like . . . any other Z and you'll see its the same you keep starting threads on this **** and everyone's telling you the same thing youre stuck because of your dumbass local work distributor telling you they're different but they're wrong they look the same, they're described as the same by the article i linked you do, and logically, nissan wouldn't make some bigass caliper that no one's ever seen before just for australia AND the work wheels come in four difference disk types so all you have to do is get the T-disk with max brake clearance, that clear even ******* GTR brakes |

Ok sorry, only why is that it is 2 different Work wheels distributors here in AUS have now told me it isn't possible.
One of them gave me that Caliper form. And I have asked Nissan today about this, hopefully they will get back to me about it. |

I did the ******* work linking you to the Work size chart and walking you through the fitment options. shouldn't have wasted my time, ****.
WALK INTO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND GET A PART NUMBER. When they show you one thats identical to US/JAPAN Z's, go to your dealers and punch them in the face. Then report them to Work and get their distribution dealers revoked for incompetency |

Well, would ya look at that:
41001-1EA4A - LH (Red) 41011-1EA4A - RH (Red) 41011-1EA1B - LH (Grey) 41001-1EA1B - RH (Grey) Like we've been saying for a few weeks now: THEY ARE THE SAME. You could've found all this information on Google. Jeeez I wanted to edit this in: Your Work "dealers" are incompetent and obviously didn't contact Work Wheels. |

I am actually beginning to think that if they did indeed contact Work Japan, that Work Japan just blindly said it won't fit the AU market because they have no info on the brakes here and did not care if they do or do not fit for us?? Because I doubt all 3 dealers are trying to do the dodge? |
