Project Mu has their Piston Upgrade kit out for the Akebono brakes.
 

?????????????? - ??????????????

Check out their Z34 kit which is the 370Z kit. S/ST models are same as Sport model here in the States.

I'm not sure why link shows up broken like that, but the link itself works.

It's because this website serves pages using the Latin-1 character set and cannot display the characters properly.

What exactly do these pistons do better than stock?

anyone have any experience with these?

Interesting

I assume being Ti they wouldnt transfer heat from the pad to the fluid as much. no? more durable and a tad lighter maybe?

its an intersting thing to add if your getting your calipers taken apert for powdercoating....

not being able to read japanese, I just see a small thing saying you go from 148 grams to 51 grams, so I assume its just weight savings. I would much rather they make a solid piston to absorb more heat. Thats the common piston upgrade for corvettes and such.

Here is the English link:

Project Mu Co., Ltd. - UPGRADE PISTON KIT

they are aluminum not titanium like i thought. hmmmmm

For those of us not fluent in international trade relations/currency... What are we looking at in terms of cost for these?

Front: 30k Yen ~ $XXX

Rear: 18k Yen ~ $XXX


Do any vendors on here carry these? Or can get these... Might as well if you're going to be taking them apart anyways right? :tup:

360 and 220. all you have to do is type in 30000 yen to USD in google and it solves it for you.

Not worth it IMO.

Even if I send the calipers to you for a PC job? They'll be shinyer than the old ones... :rofl2:

That is a ripoff at those prices

I'd be more than happy to install them for anyone:tup:

Interesting... Maybe a good alternative if one were to rebuild their caliper for whatever reason.
