Decided to install my Evo 9 Brembo BBK today on my 2002 Nissan Maxima. It cost me around $500 bucks to do the full setup. The brackets fit great and have full rotor-to-pad coverage.

Part’s Used:

• 2003-2007 Mitsubishi Evolution 8 / 9 Brembo Front Brake Calipers
  • Part Number for OEM Left/Driver Front: 4605A435
  • Part Number for OEM Right/Passenger Front: 4605A436
• CGR Adapters (Paid $140)
  • Make sure to use Loctite on all bolts. I personally used Loctite Threadlocker Blue 242.
  • Important Note: Original kit came with 60MM bolts. I ended up needed 65MM bolts for proper fitment and tightening. 
• 12.6″ 6thgen Nissan Maxima Drilled/Slotted Rotors
• Goodridge Stainless Steel Brake Lines
• Project Mu NS 400 (PMU-PS4F906)

You need to ensure the bleeder valve sit upwards. Some people make the mistake of putting them on the wrong sides.

You can see the better rotor-to-pad coverage on the Brembo’s versus the 300ZX BBK. Much better fitment.
