problem with floatin rotors and akebono

Or if you get really lucky that a GTR owner is upgrading his brakes and sell you the OEM setup for cheap, do a conversion. Consider how expensive it is to ship these rotors from USA.

Good luck either way!

In my opinion, Any good aftermarket BBK, like AP RACING will be better than GTR OEM brakes and cheaper probably. I have some time In a 2020 gtr nismo, and a lot of owners changed the brakes to a aftermarket BBK like Alcon(for tracking purposes)

The thing is that here in Europe modify the car is a pain in the ***, any mod, even if it's simple like a wheelspacer equals a +300$ fine + a car inspection that you need to pass X year to check if the car is stock.

I have to think about it because as i said, changing the front braking system equals a problems, but one option i have, and i'm thinking seriously is to go AP Radical 1 calipers for the fronts, the list of available pads and discs is vastly expanded.ç

thank you

Stillen and a few other places here in the states used to sell the AP Radical II BBK kits. But something happened a few years back and AP is no longer selling their BBK kits here for the Z. I was looking into them for myself. Think the only BBK kit left for the Z is the Brembo and the Wilwood kits here in the states.

Not arguing, just clarifying my thoughts...

Key point was if you could have it for cheap. For the same price, I would obviously go with the few reputable aftermarket BBK setups. Used OEM GTR brakes are still much cheaper than reputable aftermarket BBK, full setup to full setup, in the US market at least.

I assume the brake bias is still ok....long time ago an AP rep said bias would be wrong, but nowadays there are a few cars running around with that setup, one is a euro member that tracks and is turbo’d, so I guess the bias is ok....I don’t know....

I think judging the sufficiency against the GTR is tough, they are 5-600hp pigs after all. For use on a Z34, OEM GTR hardwares would be more than sufficient...easily few hundred pounds less, 2-300 hp less....
