Brake Disc + Pads for my 07 V36 Skyline

Hey guys,

So my daily is due for its major service and one of the things that was listed is I need to change the brake discs.

I was just wondering what are my options out there.

I don't race my car, nor do I race in streets, I just use it from A to B. So I don't need high performance discs/pads.

I also don't want to fork out over $1k for OEM.

My car is a sedan btw.

Try Brakes Direct in QLD.

Brakes that fit V36 sedan with single piston calipers.

They have the front and rear discs plus pads. Can do OEM or something a bit better.

I was looking at eBay, it seems like they have a lot for v35, but I'm assuming it won't work with my v36??

The V35 brakes are completely different... The 3.5 and early 3.7 V36 sedan has a weird sized huge (330mm) single piston brakes that were not used on many other Nissan's.  From MY 2010 they were replaced with a slightly smaller (320mm) and thinner disc, with dual piston calipers. These smaller brakes are much more common.

Really no point trying to economise on the brakes when they are so important, and not even really that expensive for the slightly upgraded parts.

These are the brakes you are looking for....

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
