G37 / FX50 Akebono Brake Retrofit

[Viperi]

i got a set. i didn;t open it up yet but from the picutre here on page 7, there are 2 adapters and 8 bolts

 

[J3FF3R$0N]

the bolts are for the bolting the hub to the knuckle, they are longer than the existing bolts

Does anybody have the measures for the Adapters? I try to order a pair, but my CNC guy say that it is very important to have the right measures and the angle or it will heavily used on just one point which isn't safety for driving such a vehicle. I screw down the bold and try to get the measures, but i don't sure about it. Can someone double-check the result of my measurement? Thanks Sec
Can PM the Picture of my measure!

From reading another thread, the stock spare wont work on our akebonos right? whats a good alternative?

If you could get the spare from an FX50., it will work.

^:plus1: Jeff (J3FF3R$0N) is using a FX50 spare for his setup.

^ So where does he put his spare? I understand the spare wheel well is so tiny.

It still fits in the spare well.

You could carry a spacer around with you and use the stock spare to make it cheaper

Andrew, I'll sell you a set of Iciba V2 15mm spacers at a great price if that will work.

Ok, i finally got the exactly angle and sizes for the Adapters to work with the FX50 knuckles. If someone else here in Europe needs the Adapters to build up the FX50 Brakes on the FX35/45 let me know!

Is there any place/person still selling a front BBK kit?

I've had my FX for years and the brakes have been OK, but now I am pulling a boat around and could use a little extra help...

 

[herostar]

No replies? Still wondering...

 

[la_fx35]

The front is direct bolt on. You can find them on eBay or https://conceptzperformance.com/search.php?search=bbk

I believe circle infiniti sells the four calipers but also sell them separate . That's where I'm going to probably get all four akebono calipers once these brakes are def toast. I know I will need to do my brakes bc these are squeaking

I've got a 2nd set of Akebono calipers (fronts/rears) going for sale once I dig them out of the garage.

 

[ocal21]

How much?

Ok boys there is a g37xs parting out locally and everything is for sale.

- From what I gathered, fronts are direct swap. What else from the G would I have to take off, bolts? Pins? Or will my Fx stuff work. I can't seem to see many pics or links anymore.

- As for the rear, I am confused, I need pictures. Can I just take more stuff off the parting car to make it all fit without any custom adapters and such?
