There we go!! I was looking around on info that I "don't know" about this car. Ok, so what is the difference between the Brembo brakes, and these brakes? Are they in-house big brakes for the G? I currently own a '08 Mitsu Evo 10 GSR and Brembo's are standard on this car so it's a bit of a pain at times with finding wheels that fit over the calipers without the use of spacers. But anyway, back to the topic at hand... Can you clarify the difference?

Yeah, Akebonos are the "in-house" big brake for the G37.

Infiniti used to put the Brembos on the MT versions of the G35 but no more.

Alright. Thank you! I was starting to wonder for a second. No reply to a guy with a low-post count? I see..lol I have over 1000 posts on the Evoxforums so I'm not new to the forum base at all. Well thanks again for the response. I'll be lurking around for a while and just reading and learning. I hate to post something that has already been answered elsewhere in this forum.

Do you mind posting a pic of your car with 370z base wheels?

Just for future reference, these are the 2003-04 18" G35 rims with brembo brakes.

Here are some pics.





wow... thanks for the pic. almost make a new thread to ask this question.
now time to get some G35 rims for drift use
