    Why? The stock brakes are already 12.5".....plenty of stopping power....

    for non ser and base ser I'm sure it would work just fine, you'd likely need only a spacer for the caliper, even then I doubt it since nissan uses a standard bolt spacing for many of the fwd models. BUT the 07+ SER + Spec V are 5 lug so you'll need new rotors. the SpecV also uses a larger + thicker rotor than the old specV, You could probably shave the pad to regain the extra 2mm needed for clearance but you would 100% need a spacer to step the caliper out enough to clear the oem rotor. If you want to upgrade and not shave the pads, the rotor the REAR rotors from a 350Z brembo would be a good candidate as it's the right size. You'll still need a custom spacer to mount the brembo caliper though.

    If your interested in trying let me know. I have a contact and can get the brembos calipers brand new, fully loaded w/ pads for roughly $215ea
