RL Calipers Fit behind 05 TL 17" rims!

Waiting for fluid to do full flush and then these will be on the car, this was a test fit to be sure the wheels cleared.


Thanks for the brackets to Civicdrivr!


Yup. Brackets that make it possible to attach the calipers.

Disks are EBC 13" '05 350Z Nismo.

11.4 vs 15.1 including the bracket RL vs stock.

OEM rotor is long gone but the Z rotor is bigger & wider so I am sure it is heavier

Calipers cleaned, seals checked EBC red stuff installed.



Russell Stainless Lines ready.



ATE TYPE 200 Brake Fluid is all that is holding up my install.





Brake fluid has landed!

Calipers new fluid & SS Lines are in, feels great!










Russell, it says CL/TL on the box.



That is possible.

Including the pads and fluid flush I have less than 650 into this. The calipers came with usable pads and the fluid was clean but I chose to do it.

The SS lines were also a choice, I got them on sale for 98.00 delivered. The Goodrich were out of stock but available for 10.00 more and the rep said the difference was indistinguishable (I was willing to wait for them, they would have made $ yet he said it was not necessary, there was no difference).

The pads can take up to 1k miles to fully seat yet the brakes feel much better. I am very happy with my results.
