Just wondering if it would be possible to fit the front disc's, pads and calipers from a 300zx twin turbo onto the IS without too much work being involved. Reason I ask is because I have a set at home which if they will fit with a relative amount of ease, I may as well use as a decent upgrade . . . . . . .


If not then I will at some point be putting them up for sale (once they have been removed of course :lolSmile

If you take them off I got a guy who can make you some steel brackets similar to the figs ones that some use or failing that I know that almost finished is running 350z brembos on his I'm sure I could sweet talk him into letting me at his car to get the brackets copied.....

you might need an RCA spacer to stop it hitting the hub knuckle by the way. I did with the LS400 4-pots and 315mm disks.
