Lockjaw Posted October 11, 2002 Share Posted October 11, 2002 All I see is a red X. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z-TARD Posted October 11, 2002 Share Posted October 11, 2002 I also get the red "X", but I went to the link on your post and was able to see the picture. Looks pretty good , and its probably easier than pulling one off of a Maxima. I'll probably end up fabricating one similar to it in the near future.

Lockjaw Posted October 11, 2002 Share Posted October 11, 2002 Yeah, and while you are emailing, how about fabbing me up a set and sending them to me. What kind of money would it take? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A. G. Olphart Posted October 13, 2002 Share Posted October 13, 2002 Your brackets seem to be rotated about 90 degrees from the maxima drawing... Is this to make them a slide on piece held in place by 3 bolts? How does the altered position work out with the plumbing and emergency brake cables? I,too, would appreciate a drawing- something like these may have a place on my 240. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted October 13, 2002 Share Posted October 13, 2002 a.g., the brackets are actually rotated 45° from the maxima bracket. i rotated it to have more material to weld to. also it is closer to the ebrake cable. "Is this to make them a slide on piece held in place by 3 bolts?" yes it does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted October 14, 2002 Share Posted October 14, 2002 John... Thanx for the 3 diagrams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted October 14, 2002 Share Posted October 14, 2002 How is everyone hooking the e-brake on the Zx calipers? I like the look the the fabricated bracket that was posted. My only concern is getting a functional ebrake hooked up. I am not all that crazy about the 240sx conversion, seeing how I have all the parts for the zx conversion on my junk car.

Dan Baldwin Posted October 14, 2002 Share Posted October 14, 2002 It would be good to see the backside of this. Is there just one weld bead, or is there some overlap and another weld on the backside? i.e., is any bending taken by the one weld bead? 3 bolts instead of 4 would make for a lot more convenience in installation, and replacing wheel studs (I had to get creative the other day to sneak a wheel stud in with the Maxima brackets). BUT, Nissan engineers designed the part to be attached with 4 bolts, and to completely encircle the hub. There may be a very good reason for that. Not saying the design isn't adequate, just that these things MUST be considered and some analysis done, IMO.
