An Akebono Big Brake Kit for a V35, V37, 350Z or 370Z - kit includes front & rear Akebono calipers (4 pot / 2 pot), alloy caliper mounting brackets & bolts (required for V35 / 350Z), front & rear slotted stoptech rotors, front & rear stoptech street pads with plenty of life, front & rear EBC Yellowstuff track pads with plenty of life, and front & rear braided brake lines. The calipers are red powder-coated with Nissan badging (they are also available with Infinity badging - but mine are Nissan). New replacement price on these components is around $2500 - (BBK with street pads $2000 delivered, Yellowstuff F&R pads $400, Braided lines $120). I only got to use these brakes at Malalla once, but they were fantastic, allowing much later braking and no fade at all after 6 or more hot laps. Note that the front calipers have had a very small amount of alloy removed to fit under stock 18" rims, and the bare area was then repainted with red high-temp brake pain. These brakes also look fantastic on the car - the rotors are massive. I am after $1500 for the lot, plus shipping.

A pair of hydraulic struts for a 350GT (actually they are 350Z ones but also fit a 350GT) - $50 plus postage. They are about 6 months old, and include all parts needed to install. Installation takes a couple of minutes per side.

A single Whiteline front lower control arm to shock bush (not a pair, just 1 bush to fit 1 side of the car - long story) - part number is W52992 (but only half the kit...) $20 plus postage

Not sure what a GT8 is - if the bonnet hinges are the same as a 350GT coupe they should fit. The struts attach to one of the hinge bolts on the bonnet, and the other end has a ball-headed bolt that replaces one of the front guard mounting bolts on each side. I can get you the extended strut length if you want to measure it on your car.

    • Yeah ok, it'll be expensive. But it is what it is.  How do you plan to use the car? Any track work? 
    • I do have their “Nissanie Motorsports Co.” vin plates, but I am curious if anyone would have more info on them. Like how many cars they’ve imported and whatnot
    • Been a long while since i have updated this money pit lol.  Have had a few tune related issues with the car, first blowing the frost plug out the back of the head and then blowing the headgasket 3 months later, which has now been retuned and sorted. Done a few little changes along the way as well, i wasn't happy with the wheel and brake setup, so start of last year i managed to get myself a set of r35 brakes and nismo lmgt4 18x10.5 +15 Upgraded to now running a Precision Gen 2 6870 with a 1.15ar, to be honest felt more like a downgrade as the car feels much lazier around town compared to the Gen2 6466 previously. 0761719E-5683-43F7-BD3B-4BD94335DFF4.mov
