sam350z2013 Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Hi, Just wondering do these brembos look damaged / missing something? as planning to get these for my import with non brembos and wanted to know if I need buy anything in particular to fit them. Thank you for any advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Well, you'll want the front calipers too for a start Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almeida1234 Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Can't really tell by those pics, but if I was you I will strip them down and rebuilt them while they are off. Give them a lick of paint too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fairladyz2013 Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Looks like the brake pipes are broken? But someone might be able to correct me... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jp606 Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Can't really tell from pictures. I'd be inclined to rebuild them. Install some braided hoses whilst you are there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMballistic Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Looks like the brake pipes are broken? But someone might be able to correct me... Nah should just glue back together ok. Seriously though as Almeida said I'd get a service kit for them whilst they're off and have them rebuilt for peace of mind & resprayed for aesthetics. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88sam88 Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Looks like the brake pipes are broken? But someone might be able to correct me... I thought this initially, looking at the pics as the pipes look like they've been cut/snapped off? 😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just cut straight through the brake pipes rather than faff around trying to undo them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jumping350 Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Yeah they are a nightmare, could get some braided ones now though. When I got my fog light I talked him through it on the phone so I got both connectors I needed he was ready to hack right through the loom before I called Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BulletMagnet Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 You could PM ZMANALEX and see if he has any reconditioned Brembos in stock, for peace of mind. Unless theses are super dirt cheap that is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samsniss350z Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 I'd go along with Bullet Magnet as Alex had quite a few sets of reconned Brembo's in a variety of colours and they came with a guarantee. If you're not confident in refurbishing them I'd send them away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnH Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Abbey probably still have my old set with about 20k miles on them, if they still have them you're welcome to have them as long as you make a sensible offer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sam350z2013 Posted May 31, 2014 Author Share Posted May 31, 2014 thanks for all the replies..managed to get them for a cheap price. Anyone here done the brembo conversion before, was it difficult ? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZMANALEX Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 If swapping from JDM to Brembo you will require lines, pads, rotors and a hardware fitting kit. Alex. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
