They use the same brakes. I just looked in my Nissan Fast program.

yup I'm in Taiwan right now, but the Cefiro I've been driving (white/black 2.0) has the crappiest brakes... well makes me realize why I changed mine on my Maxima...

It depends on the Cefiro. Check out this post here on another Maxima forum from a person who also owns a Cefiro in NZ, http://maximaracing.org/viewtopic.ph...ight=a32#13279.

Hey Malik,

VQ20 do uses the same caliper as A32 Maxima/I30. I have VQ30DE Cefiro Calipoer off the Cefiro which is Dual Piston and they are the same as R32/R33 Skyline. If you wanna go that route

I believe we have One on each Caliper on the USDM A32 Maxima/I30. The VQ30 Cefiro Caliper fits on our car like OEM using the stock rotor and no adaptor needed. However, finding the correct Brake Pad is the tough job... haha.. so I always keep one spare set of 'em brake pads available.
