How To Install Z1 Motorsports Big Brake Kit For Q50/Q60

[@SebastianMirek]

I needed to buy spacers for my q60 premium, which surprised me, since I have the 19in wheels.

great video

[@spawnandbatman6975]

Do they sell a bigger dust shield? Just for a clean install

[@Ghost.q50]

Yes they do, it was an option you can add when you order from Z1 motorsports

[@HighTideChris]

did you take the hub off to install it?

[@MikeJohnson-ej4oc]

Also, any specific reason why you went with the Z1 kit, and not the Akebono ones? I know there is a slight price difference, but they should have similar clearance for wheels. Thanks.

[@Ghost.q50]

It was mainly just price because I heard they have same build quality and yes they should have same wheel clearance

[@GyalkaQ50]

They’re the same Z1 just put the emblem on it

[@MikeJohnson-ej4oc]

Did you have to buy those copper washers as extras from the website?

[@Ghost.q50]

No they came with the big brake kit

[@Jay2lit.223]

How many banjo bolt did you get from z1

[@Ghost.q50]

I don’t remember tbh but I just know it was enough for the install

[@BabyUnicorns2000]

Why did you not upgrades to ss brake lines as well?

[@Ghost.q50]

I probably should’ve since they were only an extra $100 but I just didn’t feel I needed it

[@BabyUnicorns2000]

@Ghost.q50 the oem rubber lines tend to expand and give a soft pedal feel after a little hard breaking. They are well worth the little bit of time and money.

[@osirisgomez9365]

What are the wheel specs you have? I own the brake kit for my q60, but i have to run spacers for the OEM wheel.

[@Ghost.q50]

My wheels are 20x 8.5 +35 in front and rears are 20x 9.5 +35

[@sa-iu1cc]

@@Ghost.q50what are the tire widths?

[@jordez1]

Great video, can i use oem akebono brake pads all around instead the ones offered by Z1? Thx

[@itsdevv5706]

Should be able to if they fit. A fit is all that matters not brand

[@pikaghosts3436]

Does this work on the Q50 luxe?

[@iansoulless]

Is there anyway to stop the squealing 🤣

[@Ghost.q50]

Unfortunately no that’s one thing I’m dealing with every morning😂

[@edjyz_]

Did you use the same break lines you already have in the car?
