What are you guys paying for Brembos? I have a set of D2s on the front of my Stagea - cost about NZ$2k but I think there is a group buy on this site run by R31Nismoid.

Would rather pay 2k and no import var tax than 800 and half of car value in import tax.....

Hey guys..

Just digging this up as I need some clarification.

For those who have performed the Z33 / V35 Brembo caliper upgrade, did you upgrade the brake lines as well?

Obviously upgrade lines is preferable but can I get away with the standard lines?

Cheers guys.

Found it:

Stoptech stainless steel braided lines

Purchased from Concept Z performance

Designed for G35 sedan 03-06, coupe 03-07 (I think they were for G35X if they make different ones for those models)

Part Number for front and rear set G35-950.42004_950.42503

Fitted to M35 ARX with 350Z Brembo's - straight fit, no drama's, no cable ties; was able to use supplied bracket mount

Cost me $150 plus postage (2 years ago) for the set

So those have 3 parts not 2? The G35X was the awd one, so they should bolt on, just like you described.

Maltech wanted $700 the set back when I fitted mine... Thanks for that Adam, we should get a group buy started on them.

What do you mean by 3 parts Scotty? They are full replacement - single braided line from solid line to caliper. I'll take some pics over the weekend some time.

I guess I could organise group buy, however seeing that I already have a set there is not really anything in it for me...unless you want to organise front and rear sway bars for me Dale?

    • The question then becomes - was there any fluid coming from that hole before you did the rebuild ?    You may not have noticed, of course.   Depending on how you did the rebuild, the possibility has to be considered that somehow (cleaning ?)  fluid entered that hole and is now being 'forced'  out by small movements of the proportioning valve.   From the factory, there's actually a small rubber plug in that hole but with age and under-bonnet heat it's quite common for it to 'go missing'.  That rubber plug is designed to allow the venting process but also to prevent 'stuff' getting to the area (prevent corrosion, etc).   The plug is also not available as a spare part AFAIA. Personally I wouldn't race and buy a new master just yet but keep an eye on the area to see if the 'leak' continues.   If you're concerned about brake fluid damaging nearby paintwork, cable tie a piece of suitable absorbant material over the hole and remove/monitor occasionally.    Operation of the proportioning valve and the brake master itself won't be affected, but also keep an eye on brake fluid level, of course. In terms of a new master, the genuine part is getting expensive, unfortunately.  Amayama is showing AUD900+.   I was searching recently and there's an aftermarket part available from Japan made by 'Parts Assist': https://zenmarket.jp/en/yahoo.aspx?q=BNR32%2bBM50&p=1 Whether it's any good I have no idea, although in my experience Japanese aftermarket stuff is pretty good quality-wise.   The above site allows overseas buyers to purchase stuff more easily from Japan but there are fees and shipping costs, of course.   The original Japanese seller page is here: https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p1197401228 Copper/Nickel is fine but I still prefer bundy tube and it's also cheaper.
