CF736's 2017 Nissan 370z Journal

CF736

Today was the day for the Sport Brake Upgrade. Here is my parts list for today’s event:

Sport Brake Calipers
Centric Slotted Rotors
Hawk HP Plus Brake Pads
Z1 Stainless Steels Brake Lines
Stillen Front Brake Cooling Kit
Motul RBF 660 Brake Fluid

So, the upgrade was pretty straight forward I guess. It was the first time I have done this upgrade on a Z. I’ve done brakes jobs on other vehicles before so I had a little experience.

I installed the new Stillen Front Brake Cooling mounts on the spindles since I had the front assemblies tore down anyway. I did not run the ducting yet for the cooling kit though. That will be a project for another weekend.

I was very concerned about the stock front wheels fitting over those Sport Calipers but thankfully they fit.

I feel I can track the car now for my current skill level (beginner). I am excited and nervous about my first track day.

I didn’t upload any photos as I’m sure everyone has seen enough sport Brake upgrades already.
