Deleted info about new factory calipers, scroll to Update below for that info.
Once you locate the calipers you can get the rotors & lines at rockauto.com
Rear rotors Centric C-tek CENTRIC Part # 12142101 ($31 each)
Front rotors CENTRIC Part # 12142100 ($44 each)
PosiQuiet Ceramic Front CENTRIC Part # 10513460 ($38 set)
PosiQuiet Ceramic Rear CENTRIC Part # 10513470 ($30 set)
As far as lines, that will depend on Sedan or Coupe so you'd have to look those up on your own, but should be about $70 for the F&R sets and about twice that for Stainless lines.
So your grand total would be
$850 or less for calipers
$150 rotors
$70 pads
$70 lines
So about $1200 for a paint ready BBK, everything included.
Obviously pad & rotor upgrades will add to the bottom line but still a good deal! ***UPDATE***
Used rebuilt calipers have become extremely scarce but getting brand new calipers directly from Infiniti parts still keeps the costs low and the calipers will be fully painted and ready to install.
Here's the part #s and the place is www.discountinfinitiparts.com (you must state that your vehicle is equipped w/ sport brakes such as a G37 S coupe, if you list your VIN# you may be sent the calipers that came on your vehicle, and you don't want them, lol).
41001JL02A Front right caliper
41011JL02A Front left
44001JL02A Rear Right
44011JL02A Rear Left
Also the brake hardware kits can be ordered from www.rockauto.com (these are just over $6 a kit, about $80 less than Infiniti prices) *****YOU ONLY NEED ONE HARDWARE KIT FOR THE FRONT AND ONE FOR THE REAR***** ALSO SOME PADS INCLUDE THE HARDWARE KIT SO VERIFY WHEN YOU ORDER (IF POSSIBLE)
Front kit Centric # 11742053
Rear kit Centric # 11742054
And you don't NEED new brake lines, just shorter banjo bolts, here's the size you need~ 17mm m10 1.0 banjo bolt and these are tough to find, here's the one source that I know carries them https://conceptzperformance.com/Cart...n.php?II=13378
If you want SS lines rockauto has the best deal on those too, and these DO have the banjo bolts that will work, if you go w/ another brand of SS line I'm not sure on the banjos.
Stoptech SS lines
Front Centric # 95042012
Rear Centric # 95042503
So going w/ brand new calipers but not needing new lines should keep the total to less than $1100.
And once you get it all together and ready, here's a great DIY link to get them installed http://www.370zcoupe.com/install-ake...z-or-350z.html The only error in this link is the bleeding sequence is wrong, it should be~passenger rear, driver front, driver rear then lastly passenger front. If you have aftermarket wheels and aren't sure if they will clear the new Big calipers, here's a link to templates you can use on your current wheels to see if they'll work, or maybe just need a small spacer~ https://www.myg37.com/forums/brakes-...templates.html
@blnewt , need some help buy few parts for my G37x would be down to chat via email or insta ?
Thanks for the info everyone, I was able to install the Akebonos on my coupe easy peasy.
Just want to share a few thoughts:
It's been said that this can be done for around $1200 all in. Nope. Not anymore. Cost me over $1600 and I didn't even upgrade the lines or pads (just used Akebono ASP pads). I'll admit the sales tax here in WA state is getting pretty steep, but a nicer set of rotors and lines would have put me at $2K easy.
I have seen auto magazine tests of Akebono and non-Akebono G37's, the stopping power was similar. However, I think the G37's they tested had dual piston calipers. My 2014 coupe had single piston calipers all the way around. The difference between those and these new Akebonos is significant. I guess Nissan installed several different versions of brakes on these cars, and I think the single pistons may have been the weakest.
Check out this caliper clearance, I didn't even check if they'd clear (figured I'd put OEM wheels back on if needed) but good golly it's a red hair of clearance!
I have all new rubber brake lines for a 2011 G37 Sport AKEBONO calipers, but they didnt come with a Banjo Bolt - Can i use my banjo bolts from my 08 G35?

AFAIK the banjos are specific to the calipers. The big brakes need the short banjos, the small brakes need the long ones.
They are real. I paid $130 for them on Jegs before they jacked up the price. Reman Akebonos, all new hardware. powdercoated red. Think I paid $200ish total, including the rears
I found a non-prime seller that had them for $150 (the rears) but don't need to jump right now. On the other hand, I have Z1 2 piece, steel lines, and Hawk HPS5 pads for the front.
Amazon just went to $169 shipped on the rears - Powerstop S6182. No idea how long that deal will last - the fronts I got were back at $263 within days.
Saw these on rockauto. Intrigued since one of my rears are sticking; mechanic mentioned pins last time. New England salt, probably need new calipers, pads and rotors anyway. Unfortunately, seems like they won't clear my stock G37x 17 wheels. Good luck!
I think my powerstop remanned red powdercoated were about $300 from Amazon. Bought months apart because of the weird way Amazon's pricing algorithm works - when inventory builds up the price drops for a short while.
Got the Z26 (carbon pad) kit w/ slotted and drilled rotors for $600 on rockauto last year, includes all hardware except banjo bolts (got from Z1). Not the cheapest but imo best looking.
Their drilled and slotted rotors aren't the best against rust prevention. Plus drilled and slotted aren't the best for street use. Blanks are. But they do make the best pads for our cars though in their Z2 series, in my humble opinion.
