Does anybody know if the Brembo Brake system that comes with the 2004 Sentra SE-R V-spec can be fitted into a S-chassis car ?

O ... sorry I think only Canadian V-spec have the option with Brembo Brakes , right ?

I think it'd be super cool if they did... BUT if you were going to do that, it'd probably be cheaper (or maybe more readily available?) to slap some R34 Brembos on your car. ... actually... I'm not sure if R34 GTRs ever came with Brembos. I faintly remember them, though.
In any case, I don't know if the R34 brembos'd even fit! I assume it would, since the R32 and Z32 and S14 4 pot calipers all bolt straight up (supposedly) to our cars...

As for the Sentra Spec-R brembos... you may as well try to put some V35 (G35) or Z33 brembos on our cars... they're probably significantly larger than the SE-R's.

Z33, g35 coupe and R34 all use the same badass brembo calipers. (12,8 inch if i remember right not 100% sure though)

I know they all use the same looking calipers, but my main concern is how the two holes on the calipers and the spindles line up. Cuz I think only the RWD nissan has the same calipers mounting bolt pattern but the FWD.

My guess: they'll fit (if the wheels clear).
Pretty sure we'll have to guess for now, since no one here has an 04 Spec V (or do they???).

I've heard of Maximas using z32 brakes, so you can't say FWD and RWD caliper brackets are different.

The interesting thing, though.... is that large diameter 4 lug rotors will be "more" available.
