FDF Raceshop - Nissan 350Z / Infiniti G35 High Clearance Wilwood Front Caliper Bracket

Our 350Z / G35 Wilwood front caliper bracket is a high angle clearance brake kit, built to run a Wilwood Forged Dynalite 4-piston caliper (120-13840) on the front of your Z33 or V35 in place of the heavy factory caliper. The Dynalite is a more compact 4 piston caliper, which opens up 2" of clearance between the caliper and your coilover. That clearance is what lets you run more steering angle, up to 10 degrees more lock before the caliper contacts the coilover compared to the factory setup. On top of the angle gain, it also gives you a stronger initial bite and cuts a serious amount of unsprung weight off each corner. Drifting needs brakes that bite hard and hold up to repeated use, but not the kind of long-duration heat capacity a road racer needs, so a compact 4-piston caliper on a lighter rotor is the right tool for the job.

Key Features:

• More Steering Angle: The Dynalite's compact body pulls the caliper in and away from the coilover, opening up to 10 degrees more steering angle than the factory caliper allows before it runs into the coilover, especially valuable for cars running angle kits or wider spring setups.
• Improved Braking: Four pistons and a fresh set of Wilwood pads give a firmer pedal and better bite than the factory single-piston sliding caliper.
• Significant Weight Savings: Factory caliper, rotor and pads weigh 17.2 kg (37.9 lbs) per side. The Wilwood setup with bracket, caliper, rotor and pads comes in at 10.0 kg (22.06 lbs) per side. That is a saving of 7.2 kg (15.9 lbs) per side, or 14.4 kg (31.7 lbs) across both fronts, most of it unsprung and rotating mass.
• Bolt-On Install: Bracket mounts to the factory knuckle in the OEM caliper location, no cutting or welding.
• Caliper Options: Order the brackets on their own if you already have calipers, or have us include the Wilwood Forged Dynalite calipers.
• Durable & Reliable: CNC machined in-house from high-strength alloy for long-term reliability.

Fitment: Nissan 350Z (Z33) and Infiniti G35 (V35) front. Requires 2003-2004 350Z base model (non-Brembo) front rotors, 11.625" (295 mm) diameter. Nissan moved to a larger front rotor after 2004, so 2005+ non-Brembo cars, all Brembo cars and G35s will need to run the 2003-2004 350Z base rotor, which is cheap and easy to source.

Compatible Caliper: Wilwood Forged Dynalite (Part #120-13840 | 4-Piston, 1.38" Pistons, 1.00" Rotor)

Important Note: If purchasing the caliper individually, you must tap the hole using an M10 x 1.0 spiral flute thread tap prior to installation or buy 1/8NPT to M10 X 1.00 Adaptor. Please refer to the Installation Manual for detailed instructions.

Note: Sold as a pair (left and right).
