Arizona Z Car big brake setup - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Searched, no bueno.

Anyone have anything from them? I'm looking at their Wilwood brake setup front and rear. They offer a rear add on mechanical parking brake caliper that mounts next to the wilwood... kinda odd. I was gonna just do a z32 rear setup but may try this out if anyone has any input on their stuff. Heard they make quality parts for the S30 but haven't seen any reviews on here for S chassis stuff.

Looks like that website was designed 10 years ago

haha I know, right? but if the parts are legit, its a good price for a full setup.. front 6 pot and rear 4 pot setup with rotors, pads, stainless lines, etc.

He doesn't offer the parking brake setup for s chassis, solid guy and makes excellent parts but his forte is the s30 chassis

BoostyMcZface · 06-17-2016, 09:56 AM

Ah, shit. I saw he offered it but it didn't say for what specific platform. Guess I'll have to stick with z32 rear and drum set up

I'll give him a call regardless. Maybe he'll have one soon. Hear great things from the s30 dudes though

MadMan88 · 06-17-2016, 10:09 AM

Yeah I have gone through him for both my fathers and I's s30 he just doesn't support the 240sx like he does the s30 worth a shot though I contacted him around October last year for the big break set up for my previous s14 and he told me he doesn't offer it for the 240sx just s30 but times change never hurts to try.

I just talked to him, sounds like a nice guy. Anyway, the rears you can get with an extra part that allows you to use the caliper as the parking brake, just like stock. So I'm going that route, the rear hats are going to be a couple weeks so I'll be ordering the front and rear set once they come in

MadMan88 · 06-17-2016, 12:29 PM

Good to know glad it worked out for you, do a review once you get them I'm sure people will appreciate it.

BoostyMcZface · 06-17-2016, 12:55 PM

Yeah definitely man. Could be a sweet option considering stuff like stoptech is more for just the front than the entire AZC kit goes for. Lol I'll also be doing a review on MCA suspensions new coilovers. Haven't seen anyone really run MCA here either

Mr.Chris · 07-10-2016, 04:29 PM

Let us know how the brakes work for you. I might try the rear brakes from AZC on my car if they work

BoostyMcZface · 07-14-2016, 07:38 AM

will do man, they should be on the car next month.

Just throwing this out there:
I have the 12" Arizona Z-car brakes both front and rear and the rears are overkill. I have a proportioning valve installed to dial the brakes down and have the valve practically closed to prevent the rear from locking up. Eventually I will be putting the stock brakes back on so I can have a parking brake again.
