The prices I saw is like $860 for front and rear, so how much would people just buying the fronts pay?
 
Just to reiterate, for gen1 owners - at $860 for front and rears (would that be calipers/rotors/pads/ hardware kit ?) will not complete the setup. Still need the gen2 rear knuckles (~600 for a pair, not sure prices had gone up), new bolts and tc6 balljoint adapter. Hope that will clear up some final pricing.

Gen1 - Front will mount directly tho (given Caliper/Pad/Rotors)

As for Gen2 going BBK, all direct fitting.

if i was to get all these things i would have to get someone that would be willing to install them. I always end up dealing with people that seem afraid to change stuff in the FX. They prob def be scared specially with turbocad6 balljoint adapter. But we shall see i will start buying these parts this fall just in time to get them installed by winter or spring. I hope they clear 18' stocks.

Funny, I spoke to three shops about the shift kit install and they absolutely refused to do the job. Finding the right shop(s) is the key......
 
the rear rotors won't work with the fx parking brake, you'd need fx50 rear rotors, and you will still need fx50 rear knuckles & the ball joint adapter kit...

Alright thanks for the info turbo. I might save up a little more and just buy everything new.

Turbo, his fx is 09+. Jmess should be good with his current rear knuckle and ball-joint. Just the rotors aren't compatible, no?
 
I knew I was fine with the rear nuckle and ball joint. Just wasn't sure if the rotors/calipers were the same.
Wish there was a group buy going on :wub:
 
Already ordered it from Fred Beans... I'm an authorized dealer.
The only difference is the Logo. My Calipers will be marked with Infiniti logo.
Ordered calipers and rotors with pads and all the stuff but only for the front wheels. Kit comes in approx 10 days. I'll post a diy with pics!
 
hey nick, I deal with fred beans too but they do infiniti? must be a pretty recent addition in the past few years?, I know they do many other makes, there my main supplier for gm ford & chrysler as well as some other german & jap cars, but never knew they even did infiniti...

also, nick, please read the rules as far as avatars bro, yours is not good...
 
Oh, sorry for the Avatar, I'll post my car then)) (already done)

About Fred Beans: I ordered it as a Nissan/Infiniti part!
I'll check the order stats today. If you're interested, I can give you the part numbers I ordered!

Before this order we also didn't know that we are able to buy Infiniti.
Now it seems that we do can! And it's great =))
