Anyway,
I am a custom powdercoater specializing in brake calipers. I've done over 1250 sets in the last 5 years. I do all of the disassembly and reassembly of them, so you don't have to do anything but transfer your hardware over and install. I currently have one set of Akebono calipers available for exchange.

My pricing is 300 for premium members, and 350 for everyone else, plus 30 shipping and a 600 refundable core charge if you want to do the exchange.

I haven't yet recreated the AE version, but that would be no problem at all. Most people want 'Akebono' instead of 'Nissan' on them, but I can do whatever you want. Even getting ready to do a custom set for Z1 with their logo on them.

Mike those look great. Keep me posted on the availabilty. I currently want the red capipers with the black Akebono logo. I have a flawless set of calipers ready for exchange from my 90 Nismo with only 3,000 miles on it. Just shoot me a PM.

If anyone else besides Mike can help me out just let me know!

Tyler, got your PM, thanks. It looks as if Mike the powdercoater has a set ready for exchange that he can powdercoat red for you like you want, and then ship him out your calipers (cores). This is probably your best option. Good luck

About the same price or just a touch more $ than the regular gray ones.

I saw in some Japanese blogs that some Fairlady Z34 owners are buying the red calipers for their car from Nissan. However, I think powdercoating is the most cost effective way to get red calipers.



Good luck OP

Of course, Mike. No problem, If and when I can make a recommendation to someone and point them in the right direction to a person or place that is better suited (than we are) for what they need or want... I have no problem at all doing so. (Just like in this situation here).

LOL. In fact... I probably lose money and sells all the time by doing things like this, but I feel it is the right thing to do, and I would appreciate it if I was in the same situation looking for help with something.
