Sure it's possible w/ enough $$. First you'd need to be sure you can get rotors in the proper thickness that has the 5x114.3 bolt pattern. You'd then have to custom build a bracket to mount the caliper centered on the rotor w/ the proper spacing to get full pad coverage (but nothing more).

Unless you just stumbled upon some SRT Brembos for a bargain there's much easier ways to get the BBK. AFAIK the Hyundai Genesis & Camaro Brembos are an easier fit for OEM Infiniti rotors. The Wilwood bolt on BBK is an awesome 6pot/4 pot setup that I'd get before trying to retrofit the other Brembos

Your serious, genesis breaks are an easier fit for our cars ?

I'm just annoyed lately I'd just like a BBK on my car but haven't been able to find the proper items like lines and mainly calipers .....

Has anyone done a BBK on an AWD coupe ?

If you have trouble sourcing parts then why not get oem bolt on Akebono from the vendors?? They include evening you need to make it work. And yes Akebono bbk can be installed on all awd rwd coups and sedans.

Just get the OEM kit. Trying to put Dodge brakes on an Infiniti is a waste of time.

+1 on the OEM Sport brakes. 4 pots up front and 2 pots in the back with 14 inch rotors is a pretty decently good brake kit. They feel great.

Way not just get oem akebonos unless you have those calipers laying around (would still probably go with OEM)?

Genesis Brembos are easier than SRT Brembos because the Genesis has the same bolt pattern as our Gs (5x114.3). If you want a Akebono BBK just check this thread, you can get a new setup for about $1200 to your door.

As far as the template, just print it out (making sure to get the proper 1" scale) tape it to a cardboard backer and fit inside your current wheel, if you have any contact when rotating around the rim you'll need spacing (or a new wheel) to properly clear. FWIW SRT Brembos have clearance just as bad or worse than Akebonos. That Wilwood kit has better clearance since it's a longer/narrower 6 pot.
