2010 G37xS Anniversary Edition
Hi guys, I recently bought a 2010 Infiniti G37xS Sedan Anniversary Edition. Comparing it to other G37 Sport Models, I noticed that the car has the normal brakes, not the Grey Akebono Brakes. Which models have the Akebono Brakes? Sport coupes, sport sedans? Didn't the Anniversary Edition Sedan have the Akebono Brakes installed? Did they not install these on the AWD models?
Are the Akebono Brakes better in stopping or just for looks? I like the look of the calipers. What do I need to have the Akebono Brakes installed? Calipers, Pads, Rotors, etc? How much are they? |
The rear wheel drive "S" sport models come with the sport brakes, suspension, staggered summer tires and faster-ratio steering. AWD "x" models, including xS, do not. With both the S and the xS you get the paddle shifters, sports seats, different facias (depending on the year) and 18" wheels. And yes, the Akebono's stop the car faster (although the standard brakes do fine).

if you get the sport package with AWD cars, whether it's sedan or coupe, you get the akebono brakes I have a 2011 xS coupe with sport package, and I have the akebonos |

Only xS coupes 2011 and after I believe get the sport package with brakes, suspension etc. Sedans still do not have that with the xS. |

Only when you are stopping repeatedly (like on a track) where your brakes can overheat do bigger and better brakes help prevent brake fade and allow you to stop faster. |
