Rebranded stoptechs. Just get ST’s Trophy kit if you like the brand.

If you're at this price point, you're close on the AP Racing kit I have available (just over $4000 for the fronts if you piece together the parts, much more info in my thread)

I looked into these prior to making my kit, and had some talks with Nismo to confirm more info and here's what I have:

  • What is the piston material?
  • Aluminum
  • Do the NISMO Calipers have dust boots?
  • Yes
  • Do these bolt up to stock rotor offsets, or will they need to accompanying Aerorotors?
  • Offset difference is around 1mm, should be able to bolt up Calipers with his existing 2pc rotor setup.


From the aluminum pistons and having dust boots, I view them more as street calipers. Plus, have been familiar with the caliper body these use from their ST60/40 kits, which have been around for ages.
If you don't need "Nismo" on them, the AP Racing CP9668 and CP9660 calipers are a big improvement for track use. Much lighter, can fit more pad, and hold up to higher temps.
cv129, danegrey, Rusty and 2 others like this.
