ozzinc Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 I have the 85 to 88 maxima caliper and the maxima bracket no.# 44155-04S10 and 81 to 82 280zx rotor, but it seems like a need a spacer to go in between the caliper and the caliper bracket so the rotor is centered in the caliper, im wondering if i have the wrong combination. 72 240z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
260zShooter Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 those are not the correct brackets. You need the ones from an even earlier Maxima like 80-84 modle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSM Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 You can use them but they need to be modified pretty extensively. Search, around the site there are many write ups on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozzinc Posted April 13, 2009 Author Share Posted April 13, 2009 problem solved, I just used a thick washer to center the rotor in between the caliper and everything is fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1NONLYZ Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Any chance you could post a picture or send me one directly? I have the same brackets, calipers & rotors. I can't find the other bent style brackets. There are several sets of the flat brackets in the salvage yard but none of the bent style.

Dat260 Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Here are two models. There is another one but I do not have a picture of it. Cheers, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1NONLYZ Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 It sounds like ozzinc used the "flat" brackets with washers for spacing & the 82-83 calipers. I would like to know/see how he did this. Everything I have read says that you have to use the other brackets, like the ones Dat260 posted pics of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dat260 Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 A member here used the flat bracket but had to shave some material off the bracket to be able to install and center the caliper. Search for it he gives diamension of material remove for the processe. Cheers, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrangeCrush Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I have the 85 to 88 maxima caliper and the maxima bracket no.# 44155-04S10 and 81 to 82 280zx rotor, but it seems like a need a spacer to go in between the caliper and the caliper bracket so the rotor is centered in the caliper, im wondering if i have the wrong combination. 72 240z The part number 44155-04S10, is for the earlier Maxima brackets (the offset ones), not the 85-88 flat type (sold on ebay for $35 a pair that require $75 in machine work). The ZX rotors for 81 and 82 are not the same. So what does ozzinc really have? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
