Larger rotors?

MTL370z · 04-21-2011, 02:41 AM

Does anyone recall seeing a site/company that sold brackets which allow the Akebono calipers to accommodate larger rotors?

Don't think it's possible.

I remember seeing a site that was selling various BBK's for our cars as well this bracket kit for the Akebonos. Hmmm...maybe I'm just crazy....Anyone else?

Try to contact Z1, they sell all kinds of Akebono OEM products.

I don't see why this couldn't be done. I did this in my Z32. I got Z33 track rotors and with a brack moved the calipers. Worked great since the calipers were great just the size of the rotors didn't provide the braking torque i needed.

I checked their site, they don't have anything listed. I specifically remember seeing pictures of the bracket kit along side the other BBK's they were selling. Why oh why didn't I bookmark!
