problem with floatin rotors and akebono

Rusty

DO NOT grind on your calipers. Only bad things will happen.

Looks like the rotor outside diameter is ok. But the hat is wrong. So you got the wrong rotors.

Next question. Did your Z come with the 'bono's already on?

yes, in europe all the Z come with akebonos.

it looks like the hat is too big and needs to be 10mm smaller, right now we are in contact so let's see if we can get a new set with the problem fixed. Right now i think there's no brands selling full floating rotors for the Z, i don't know if it's because the Akebono caliper or because it's not worth.
If Floating won't work we gonna try Fixed rotors.

by the way i haven't showed my Z, it's this little boy:

Ok, you got the wrong rotors. No questions asked. Did you get the 2 piece rotors for the rear too?

No, only fronts , rear will stay oem.

yes, but theoretically the rotors i got were for 370z, probably they failed when designing the hat, my opinion is that they designed the hat with an AP caliper, wich it have more space in the bottom(like most of the calipers heh)
anyway, the problem is solved.
cheers

You might have gotten the rotors that was met for the AP calipers from the big brake kit. We can no longer get the AP BBK here.
