The following procedures for removing the fan clutch gives the factory recommended loosening and tightening directions for the fan hub nut. However, it has been our experience that certain aftermarket parts manufacturers have changed this to enable use of universal fit parts. We recommend trying the factory direction first, then, if the nut doesn’t seem to be moving, reverse the direction. Placing too much load on the water pump snout will break it.

The installation of the StopTech 350Z Rear Brake Upgrade requires extensive trimming of the splash guard/dust shield and filing or grinding of one of the caliper mounting lugs. The use of a powered cutoff wheel is likely necessary to trim the splash guard.
Only a qualified and experienced technician should perform this part of the installation as the use of power tools can cause serious injury if proper safety precautions are not taken. If you are unsure in your ability to make these modifications, please seek the help of a qualified technician.
Hand Brake Limitation
The emergency/parking brake can not be used as an active braking device such as hand brake turns or drifting competition. The aluminum hat portion that acts as the brake drum will hold the car in any parking situation and work for a single emergency stop, but will not stand up to use as a supplement to regular braking.
STEP 1 – Raise Vehicle and remove wheels. Apply Parking brake and block front wheels. Break loose the lug nuts on both rear wheels before jacking up the car. Refer to the Owners Manual for correct location for jacking up the vehicle. Jack up the vehicle and secure on a pair of jack stands. Never leave any vehicle supported with only a jack – always use jack-stands. After securing the vehicle at a convenient height, remove the rear wheels.
Note: If you remove the bottom lug nut last while holding the bottom of the tire, it will lessen the chances of the wheel tilting on it’s own and make removal easier. Right rear corner with wheel removed.
STEP 2 – Disconnect Stock Brake Line
WARNING – Brake fluid will damage most painted surfaces. Immediately clean spilled brake fluid from any painted surfaces.
NOTE – Be sure the cap is securely installed on the master cylinder. If the cap is loose or removed, it is likely more fluid will drip.
Place a drip tray or several rags directly below the inboard brake line connection. If the area around the brake line connection to the chassis and strut is dirty, clean with brake cleaner or appropriate cleaning agent.
