Will they fit????

I was looking on the stillen website, and it says that the rear brakes for the altima fit the new SE-R sentra, so my questions is (maybe Reverend-D can answer this)....will the front brakes fit? I know it is a long shot, but if they do then that means that the new big brake kit would fit? I doubt it will work, but if the rears fit maybe the fronts will asl well. I also realize tht there have been mistakes before on stillens site, but like I said, I was just wondering.

I've looked at the se-r brakes and they seem like the same as my 95 SE. It would be a matter of seeing if everything lines up.

One way to see how close they are is by comparing Nissan part#'s. It's a good place to start.

how much is the new big brake kit ?

close to a G...I was just curious because the only other option is Black Hornets upgrade witch is like 3Gs....hopefully reverend d sees this can can compare some part number and what not....I am pretty sure the wheel spacing is the same for the lugs, I was just concerned with caliper mounting issues....

sounds like a good idea, at least

From what I can tell, the calipers look identical. But it's all in the bolt pattern to see if they'll fit.

Let me know if you find anything on this. I'd be interested too. I heard the g20 rear brakes were bigger, but when I checked them out, they were almost identical. Bummer.

I think the sentra, g-20 and altima rotors are all the same, because almost every upgrade I have seen says it will work for all three....but I am still interested to know about the new SE-R I will have to take a closer look at one next time I see one...also if it fits the SE-R will it fit the regular sentra too?

sorry if this has already been answered, but are there any big brake upgrades made for the altima? I don't want to do custom but I will if I have to. What is the minimum rim size necessary on a kit (if there is one)?

The only upgrade is avialable from the where blackhornet works (I think). The upgrade set is like 3Gs I think. And it will be hard to do a custom job as far as I know.

i have heard the rotors fit, but that wouldn't be the problem....the caliper would need to be mounted the same way, otherwise you would run into problems

Next time I have a SE-R in my lift I will take measurments for ya. As for off the top of my head...no clue. That would be neat to check out but last time I had an SE-R on my lift I didnt think anything was special about the brakes, front or rear.
