Question Question about 350z brakes and a few others . .

Non brembo 350z brake calipers:

I have read that the only thing that you need to do is drill a bigger whole and get shorter bolts.

Would you guys recommend this upgrade?

Would I also need a 300zx BMC? - probably for a better pedal feel.

On a side note:

Would a 1000 lbs engine crane (cherry picker) be good enough to pull a SR20 or KA24 or a VG30 (from 300zx 6 cyl) ? ?


Thanks guys,

RickY

1 ton is 2000lbs if your motor weights more then 2000lbs then you shouldnt own that car...

lol
anyway yea depending on the v-6 should not be over 700-800lbs with tranny thats not even half of the hoists capacity

just make sure the chains can hold the weight. with my SR i used a seatbelt it worked fine i think SR with tranny is like 500lbs or so
