Ooo, I like that candy apple red for a powdercoat....

Tell me when you're off your brake (see what I did there?) Mike ...

Mike · 06-01-2010, 04:12 PM

sent you a pm, since I'm not an advertiser here anymore.

Wish I had saw this thread earlier I really want blue calipers with a white nissan logo! I'll be contacting you soon mike!

Mike · 03-15-2011, 07:41 AM

right now I have several people waiting from this and the G37 forum, so its a couple months for exchange. if you want to send yours, I can turn them in two days.

abgyak · 03-15-2011, 10:19 AM

2 days? hmm so a week to send it to u... 2 days to get it powdercoated and another week to send it back to me... wow thats 16 days or nearly 3 weeks without the Z... btw how much does it cost to do all 4 calipers? & is there any option to get new sets of calipers instead of sending mine to you?

Mike · 03-15-2011, 03:55 PM

I didn't notice your location, I can't do exchange either with that distance. I did send a set of Z06 calipers to Dubai once, and it cost 400 dollars, plus the guy decided to keep them and not send the cores back and I was out of the only set of Z06 calipers I had.

Best bet would be to buy a set from a US vendor, like Z1 or even used and have them shipped directly to me, let me coat them and then send them on to you.

BIG PROPS to Mike. I got to put these on today and they look amazing and even better on the car! Thanks to the guys at Z1 for taking very good care in putting them on too. I hounded them kinda making sure no nicks or scratch's etc and they went on perfect!

First pic had the flash on : ) looked kinda cool.

They really are niiiice.

Sick man.

What rotors are those?

Any photos with wheels on?

birdmanx1 · 04-23-2011, 09:06 PM

That looks fantastic Daisuke, curious to see how it'll look with the stock rims. I was planning on getting mine powdercoating the same color but was convinced to think twice about the extra effort to keep white calipers clean - seeing your set, I'll definitely get those done once I go with darker rim colors; that would make for a nice contrast. Cheers.

Thanks! Z1 2-piece rotors : )

I have stock wheels, but did not take a photo yet. I am going to wash the car tomorrow and will try to get pics in daylight.

yeah man, people said it might be a pain, but i went with low dust pads just to help. But i saw some other calipers Mike did years ago and they still look really good.

I know i cant wait for my new wheels either. Contrast is what im going for. Gloss black wheels, pearl white Pin stripe

annnnd

Wohoo, you went all the way man, the right way I should add. I saw your big 'ol sweet tires and that's going to turn out

I'm already in the long line for the pics
