2010 G37 Coupe non sport, Akebono brake swap.

Hey guys. I have a 10 G coupe non sport. Was wondering what I need to do a Akebono swap for it? I have access to both front and rear calipers and pads off a crashed Sport model. Besides dust shields, what else do I need? Someone told me I needed the calipers mounting bracket. I was going to install the larger Sport rotors also. Any suggestion would be great appreciated.

No extra hardware required for 07 sedans/08 coupes and up other than the kit, sports pads and sports rotors. Good luck! Post pics.

You might need new wheels, not sure if the non-S wheels will clear the calipers. If they're 19s they should, the 18s I'm not sure. Same thing may apply for your spare tire. I know the non-S sedans' spare won't clear the Akebonos.

Yeah I'm planning on doing either a Vossen 20in combo or Rohana. So the wheels shouldn't be a problem but good point on the spare. Hadn't thought of that.
