Red brake calipers
 

Hey guys my 2012 z got the sport black callipers,i really want them red,so whats the best way to go ??? Do i buy new ones in red or do i get these powder coated?????

Powder coated... Message "Mike" here on the forum

I can do them for you. Its 350 plus 75 shipping to Canada. Premium members get a 50 discount.

So what do i have to do? Just take them off and send them in??? What about all the seals

yeah, I take care of removing and reinstalling the seals, All you have to do is remove the brake pads and clips that hold them.

Send them to Mike. I just did this and it is the best way to go. It seemed crazy to send parts of my car to Georgia all the way from Vancouver but i like things done right and Mike exceeded expectations. Plus he's a pilot. If you can't trust a pilot then what is the world coming to. :rofl2:

clearly you didn't watch FLIGHT.

:wtf2:

:icon18:

Mike... is your real first name "Denzel"?

denzel was a badass. If he managed that drunk n high i wonder how well he pilots sober lol

No, and you could tell that whole movie was all fantasy right when the captain did the walkaround inspection in the pouring rain, that would never happen.

That and having hot flight attendants.

:icon18: true who does pre-flight inspections?:ugh2: LOL



I have been on a couple flights with some hot flight attendants :tup:

If I were you I would perchase new red ones and sell me the ones you have now for a good price....:tiphat:

I'm senior on a smaller airplane so I can fly nicer trips. Most of the flight attendants I fly with, we call area codes. Thats because their seniority is in the 3 digits, while we have over 15000 flight attendants total. Some have been flying at the airline longer than I've been alive! (I'm 47).

How much can i get for my sport calipers they got about 5000 ks on them

if you end up selling them instead of painting I'm interested.

It depends on how much i can get for them if its worthed i would

I'm looking four some red sport calipers,

Why don't you just buy some Infiniti calipers and take a nice drive down to Mike and have them powdercoated. :driving:

Why infinity ????

cheapest

Thats probly what I'll end up doing...

Well i dont want cheap brakes lol

The akebono brakes are the same only diff is one has Nissan and the other has Infinity... If im not mistaken,

Yes, exact same, the infiniti ones are cheaper for some reason.

Look: Z1 Akebono Sport Brake Upgrade Package

Can i not just buy the red calipers

Yes you can buy them but they are about $230 more then the infinity ones

you can. they are more expensive than the infiniti ones, but the same price as the stock ones I think. Z1 charges 225 more on the brake package for the stock or red over infiniti.

You could but go to Mikes site and you'll see the difference in quality and color choices. Worth it in my opinion but ymmv.

THEPOWDERCOATER.COM

thanks!

You can buy the red ones from Z1 for 225 more than the infiniti ones, or as a premium member, pay me 300 more (50 discount for premiums!) and get a much nicer finish.

So basically $75 more?

I'll be going through this process myself in the future, do you think I can ship only the callipers to you straight from Z1 while I get the rest of the stuff shipped to me?

I think I'd be interested in orange calipers, sorta like the GT-R colour but not exactly.

Mike i will send you all 4 calipers once i get the car back out of storage in the next month or so ok

yes, I do all of Z1's powdercoating, so we ship stuff between each other all the time. If you order through them, they will ship them to me for coating, I ship back to them, and then they ship to you. Usually, you buy the infinti ones from them and then pay me for coating, but sometimes you can just package it all with them also.

I think these would look good with red calipers and black wheels what do you guys think ???
