Brake Disc + Pads for my 07 V36 Skyline

Hey guys,

So my daily is due for its major service and one of the things that was listed is I need to change the brake discs.

I was just wondering what are my options out there.

I don't race my car, nor do I race in streets, I just use it from A to B. So I don't need high performance discs/pads.

I also don't want to fork out over $1k for OEM.

My car is a sedan btw.

Try Brakes Direct in QLD.

Brakes that fit V36 sedan with single piston calipers.

They have the front and rear discs plus pads. Can do OEM or something a bit better.

I was looking at eBay, it seems like they have a lot for v35, but I'm assuming it won't work with my v36??

The V35 brakes are completely different... The 3.5 and early 3.7 V36 sedan has a weird sized huge (330mm) single piston brakes that were not used on many other Nissan's.  From MY 2010 they were replaced with a slightly smaller (320mm) and thinner disc, with dual piston calipers. These smaller brakes are much more common.

Really no point trying to economise on the brakes when they are so important, and not even really that expensive for the slightly upgraded parts.

These are the brakes you are looking for....

    • I did a skidpan night at SMSP this week, it was much cheaper than $350. But yeah, you need to slap an LSD in that thing.  I put an OS Giken in the 370Z and it's f**king MARVELOUS even compared to Nissan's viscous LSD. So you're saying it's free now that it's a housing estate? 😂
    • Nah, the car seems to run exactly as it did prior, in saying this it does "seem" to be better down low, like more eager to rev, but that may be 100% placebo effect from intake noise But, I'm not worried about it at all, in the end it is a fairly low compression NA engine that has a well shrouded intake,  if it is getting hotter IAT I cannot notice anything negative performance wise from the seat of my pants thrashing it about on the street or sitting in traffic, so meh, car now now makes induction noise so I'm happy
    • Do you have an IAT sensor? It's worth checking it to see. You may be suprised how little gap you actually need to flood your engine with hot air. (I tape up my airbox for a reason) :p
    • @KinkstaahKrinkle paint the "silver" alloy, not the red filter frame Engine bay heat won't be a issue worth worrying about as the silver alloy blocks it off on 3 sides, as for the top, the bonnet seals most of it and the big OEM CAI intake snorkel is still fitted in its original position  I will head into Clark's Rubber when I have some time to grab some pinch weld to tidy up the alloy after I paint it As for performance, I honestly wasn't expecting any, the only reason I got it is because the intake noise sounds cool to my old ears when I'm feeding it the beans Sometimes it's the silly things you do in in life that gives the most fun, and I do love anything that makes cool car noises In other news: I survived 4 nights at sea with Jackie not throwing me over board, holidays are continuing now as we are currently chilling at the Beachcomber in Toukley, after taking the coast roads from Sydney in the MX5, top down all the way, Toukley is where I spent a good deal of my youth holidaying during the summer months, there's lots of reminiscing going on,  and lots of beaches and old houses to visit Next on the list is to head to Batemans Bay for a few days, but we will take the Commodore out to stretch its legs, then Commodore hasn't really moved for months
    • There’s probably people who’d like to do it and then when it comes to putting their hands in their pockets they’ll all disappear into the shadows
