300ZX BBK Installed "PICS"
What do you guys think of the color? My friends say they look like Brembo's from a distance.

It was alot of work, I stayed up till 4am last night.
I still have some clearance issues with the left side .
I had to buy longer studs, wheel spacers and a whole bunch of bolts and washers.

OH and there is a trick to get that dust sheild off after spending an hr on the first one I figured all I had to do was Bang on it left to right break it loose and get some metal cutters and cut one end and bend it off it took like 5 min . You can get the reloc brackets from Jeff and the SS lines from MaTT Blemco Here's a link to some GD's you will find most of the things needed here if not ask Jeff or MAttBlem, I'm not to familiar with some of the setups I did this one with Jeff's brackets and Matt's SS lines I had to drill holes to match factory specs cause no one has the rings to buy from,,, Jeff has a set but he's currently trying to find a machine shop to machine them.
