V36 2008 350Gt Sedan Steering Shake While Braking?

[The Max]

XS is cross-drilled. No need to go that far. You're not driving a V8 Supercar around the track. Besides which, cross-drilling adds another point of weakness, in which you get fracturing at the holes.

Just go slotted only (T3).

Thanks for the advice tony, i know you said u went through rocket, is there a SAU sponsor or someone reputable to buy them through and what sort of price would i be looking at ?  Ive measured the disc, but would prob want some sort of return policy rather than just going cheap of ebay

So how big are they? If they are the 330, then there is a very limited choice of discs that fit. If they are 320, then a much wider choice.

If they were the same spec on a USDM Infiniti, it'll be available in Australia as well. That's how DBA operate since they manufacture them here.

Nearly available....

DBA have them in the catalogue now, but not quite in production. I have an order in with Brakes Direct in QLD for DBA 4000 T3. On contacting DBA directly, I was told that they had nothing suitable... Apparently Brakes Direct have been following up with DBA for years and the penny finally dropped that these are a standard G35/G37 disc too and so it now becomes viable.

If you're ordering by specifying the vehicle, sure. But, if you do the homework by matching the specs from the workshop manual to what you find in their Aus or US catalogues, it's never a struggle.

Never mind. I see what you mean. I was curious, so I figured I'd trawl through the USDM catalogue and of all the discs reported in it, they're all the 320mm spec for a G35 of that vintage, irrespective of Sport, AWD or base model sedan.

Not even a single 350Z variant has 330mm and this is from their current catalogue on their website (admittedly, dated 2016).

I shall go back to eating my humble pie.

They exist!! Even look to be the correct size!!

Timing could have been a little better as the car was at the mechanics being serviced last Monday...
