Message In part with my turbo builder/owner of Turbo Concepts, we will be offering a 12.75" big brake kit. We have redesigned our brackets to to accept the 350z track rotor ONLY for ease if replacement of the rotor is needed. With our Brackets, the rotor is almost dead center with the middle of the caliper. You will also have FULL pad contact from the oem nissan caliper. Other brake kits do not do this. That is the biggest advantage over any other kit by far.

The rotors are made by Powerstop. These are not some cheap "brembo" knockoffs. They are very thick and if warped or damaged, they do have enough metal to be turned over a few times, unlike other cheap rotors. They are 12.75" in diameter (350z track rotor). With our Setup, the rotor is almost dead center with the middle of the caliper.

As for fitment...modification in most cases is needed for the brackets to fit. Our tolerences are very close, so once the bracket is mounted, it is very very secure. Here is a link to the areas that may need to be modified. La-Z-Link This is the most extreme level of modification i have seen/done myself. Please keep that in mind. Stock wheels will not work. As for measurements, the bracket moves the caliper 1 inch forward and 3mm's toward the wheel. A hubcentric spacer/longer studs could be used if the the wheel doesnt clear.

As for pricing ....complete kits are $450 shipped. Complete kits consist of the front adapter brackets, hardware, and a set of drilled/slotted Powerstop 350z Track rotors. You can get a bracket set including hardware for $200 shipped. Then source your own track rotors. Everything is in stock and ready to ship.
These prices in my opinion are very competitive and actually cheaper than most other "kits". Im not looking to get rich of these. Just give everyone a better alternative. Last but not least, the brackets are made right here in Michigan (not china)

If you have any questions feel free to email me at delsoltnr@yahoo.com or call me at 517-937-4769
