You need 350Z brembo rotors, I believe they are 12.8"

realized the same thing after the fact, it will be interesting to see if its a mistake or it actually is swapped. BTW trying to work on that DIY for the ported runners for you.

As what was posted in the other thread (see quote) you asked in, No. They have to be the 350 rotors
