Is Anyone else rocking the 300zx calipers? What are your thoughts? comment down below👍🏻
ERICSDIYGARAGE you need to use Infiniti M30 90-92 rotors(4x114.3) . No drilling required.
@@omaricato7488 that's what I'm currently using 👍🏻
Just got my set today 😄
for looks they do just fine but they do lack breaking power at least with my setup
Im having the ZX rotors machined to the diameter of the fit so I get the most out of the calipers
cheap upgrade. Works great when used with the correct brake master cylinder and a right sized disc. Just doing things is something different than knowing and doing things. Make it once and make it right.
Yeah if you’re trying to push twice the pistons with the same master you’re gonna have a bad time.
About to finish my turbo 02 p11 build and I can definitely say some of your videos have helped with reassembling the vehicle, I haven’t ever posted vids on here but I think this build will impress, can’t wait to show her to the world!
thanks for watching! I would love to make mine turbo 😭
Eric I’d love to have you on ig so you can see her. Ig: yamauchigarage808
ERICSDIYGARAGE pm me I have some links and people in the sr20 game stateside that would love to help you on your journey
Good looking out!! I just purchased the same paint different color.. I love the color you choose. Knowing that the pain doesn't fold up I'm going to return it and search for a higher quality caliper paint! Thanks Bro keep up the good work.. you got a new subscriber!
Thank you I appreciate your feedback and I hope you can find a better paint so that they look nicer for a longer time 👌
Thanks for making this video bro! Was stuck on seeing if I wanted to use these calipers in my p10 but seems like a lot of work for nothing but basically for the looks , ima just stick with the p11 brake upgrade ! Thanks !
thanks for watching! the p11 breaks do feel better than these calipers 😭
You can run p2m rotors for the swap they are drilled for a 4 lug and 5 lug so they would fit plus did you upgrade you master that could be a reason they are week
the issue is not the bolt pattern it's the size you have to shave around 5mm on the 300zx rotor to clear the caliper, the weakness could be because of the master but I have a feeling its because the pistons have to travel futher out to push the pads to the rotor since I'm using a 22mm rotor compared to what I should be using which is 26mm.
Did u also swap out the brake Master Cylinder aswell ? That might b the problem
Eric, what about the Rear brakes upgrade? Did you noticed any difference? Im planning to do the same on my b15 se
the rear feels like its doing most of the work, its a low budget upgrade that I would recommend
I'm in for those 300zx calipers.
Eric, whats your feedback on the Rear brakes upgrade?
its feels like its doing most of the work, its a good solid upgrade
Did you rebuild the calipers, that would be a good video.
what diameter is the disc?
this was 22mmx10.75mm
@@ERICSDIYGARAGE un this video you say , " the shock calipers brakes better" pr iam wrong? In comparison whit the shock, why break sistema is better ?
Dang that sucks :( I feel like the stock brakes are fine since the car is so slow 😭
haha true they are slow 😆 probably better of going with better pads for better braking on the stock calipers.
I think Hawk makes some P11 pads...either that or go B15 Brembo but I read that you should upgrade the rear calipers if you do the B15 fronts or else it’ll feel weak/weird. C’s Performance sells the rear upgrade kit but it’s $$$
from what I have read you need the front brembos with the rear spec v rotors that are 11in. which you can fit by using a maxima bracket that pushes the stock p11 Caliper 1 inch out. 11.4 vs 11 is not much to justify the cost in my opinion 🤔
ERICSDIYGARAGE hmm I thought the maxima bracket was for the rear and the front B15 Brembos bolt right up to the P11 hub. Not sure on the rotors though. There’s so many threads on this swap that sometimes it’s easier to just try something out and figure it out on your own 😪
@@sk83rboi777 yeah the front is a direct fit but to make the rear 11 in rotor work you need the maxima bracket for the rear sorry If I'm confusing you lol
Thinking about these wheels for my p11 with the same setup. Are you running any spacers to clear the calipers?
no spacers need they clear with more than enough space🤘
@@ERICSDIYGARAGE thanks, much appreciated 🙏
I believe they are +25, the front pokes out a little bit the rear is a little bit tucked in almost flush but could use maybe like a 15 millimeter spacer but I would need stiffer Springs because it would rub along
5 lug swap coming soon ? 👨🔧
I can't find the front wheel hubs for my car anywhere, best bet is finding them in the salvage yard and it's been challenging so right now that's all that I need 🤦🏻♂️
@@ERICSDIYGARAGE pretty sure a32 maxima ones fit with a few other changes. Join "NZPPCC - NZ PRIMERA PULSAR CAR CLUB" P11s are really popular over here and you'll find everything you need 🤙
I'm looking for 1989-94 maxima hubs because they have the same output cv axle shaft size and number of teeth on the hubs. I think I would need new cv axles to make the a32 work but I'll definitely check them out thanks for letting me know 👍🏻
Interesting about the Infiniti m30 brake rotor.
I heard that the 2008 sentra rotor also works its a better option 280 by 24mm 4x114
@@ERICSDIYGARAGE dang even more sweet I have a Infiniti m30 maybe I could use a Sentra rotor also when I plan to do a z32 brake caliper swap
Bigger brake master cylinder and you will be ok
Or you could switch your hubs out to install 5 lug hubs.
300zx rotors still wouldn't fit without shaving them down to the same size as these rotors
@@ERICSDIYGARAGE Oh ok. I was thinking since you were using 300ZX calipers they would. Might be able to size the thickness you need and piece them together. I need to do an upgrade on my 300ZX since I put 20 inch wheels on.
sell me them cali purz man
