Disassembly and Assembly of Brake Caliper AssemblyNFS000PK
NOTE:
Do not remove torque member, pads, shims, shim covers, and pad retainers when disassembling and assem-
bling cylinder body assembly.
DISASSEMBLY
1. Remove sliding pin bolt, and then remove cylinder body from torque member.
CAUTION:
Do not drop pads, shims, shim cover and pad retainers from torque member.
2. Remove sliding pin boot from torque member.
3. Remove retaining ring from cylinder body using a flat-bladed
screwdriver as shown in the figure.
4. Place a wooden block as shown in the figure, and blow air from
union bolt mounting hole to remove piston and piston boot.
CAUTION:
Do not get fingers caught in the piston.
5. Remove piston seal from cylinder body using a flat-bladed
screwdriver.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage a cylinder inner wall.
INSPECTION AFTER DISASSEMBLY
Cylinder Body
Check the inner wall of cylinder for corrosion, wear, and damage. If a malfunction is detected, replace cylinder
body.
CAUTION:
Clean cylinder body using new brake fluid. Never use mineral oils such as gasoline or kerosene.
Torque Member
Check torque member for wear, cracks, and damage. Replace if there are.
Piston
Check the piston surface for corrosion, wear, and damage. If a malfunction is detected, replace applicable
part.

CAUTION:
A piston sliding surface is plated. Do not polish with sandpaper.
Sliding Pin Bolt, Sliding Pin Boot
Check sliding pin bolt and sliding pin boot for wear, damage, and cracks. Replace if there are.
ASSEMBLY
1. Apply polyglycol ether based lubricant to piston seal, and install
them to cylinder body.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse piston seal.
2. Apply rubber grease to piston boot. Cover the piston end with
the piston boot, and then install cylinder side lip on the piston
boot securely into the groove on cylinder body.
CAUTION:

DISC ROTOR INSPECTION
Visual Inspection
Check surface of disc rotor for uneven wear, cracks, and serious damage. Replace if there are.
Runout Inspection
1. Fix disc rotor to wheel hub using wheel nuts (2 or more posi-
tions).
2. Inspect runout using dial gauge. [Measured at 10 mm (0.39 in)
inside disc edge.]
NOTE:
Before measuring, make sure that wheel bearing axial end play
is within the specification. Refer to RAX-5, "
WHEEL BEARING
INSPECTION" .
3. When runout exceeds limit value, displace mounting positions of
disc rotor by one hole. And then find a position of the minimum value for runout.
4. Replace disc rotor if it is outside repair limit after performing the above operation.
Thickness Inspection
Check the thickness of the disc rotor using a micrometer. Replace
disc rotor if the thickness is under the wear limit.
BRAKE BURNISHING PROCEDURE
Burnish contact surfaces between disc rotors and pads according to following procedure after refinishing or
replacing rotors, after replacing pads, or if a soft pedal occurs at very low mileage.
CAUTION:
Be careful of vehicle speed because the brake does not operate easily until pad and disc rotor are
securely fitted.
Only perform this procedure under safe road and traffic conditions. Use extreme caution.
1. Drive the vehicle on a straight, flat road.
2. Depress brake pedal with the power to stop vehicle within 3 to 5 seconds until the vehicle stops.
3. Drive without depressing brake for a few minutes to cool the brake.
4. Repeat steps 1 to 3 until pad and disc rotor are securely fitted. Runout limit : 0.055 mm (0.0022 in)
(With it attached to the vehicle)

Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
NFS000PY
The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along
with a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain
types of collision. This system includes seat belt switch inputs and dual stage front air bag modules. The SRS
system uses the seat belt switches to determine the front air bag deployment, and may only deploy one front
air bag, depending on the severity of a collision and whether the front occupants are belted or unbelted.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SRS and SB section of this Service Man-
ual.
WAR NING :
To avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death
in the event of a collision which would result in air bag inflation, all maintenance must be per-
formed by an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.
Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to per-
sonal injury caused by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air
Bag Module, see the SRS section.
Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or
harness connectors.
Precautions for Procedures without Cowl Top CoverNFS000PZ
When performing the procedure after removing cowl top cover, cover
the lower end of windshield with urethane, etc.
Precautions for Brake SystemNFS000Q0
Recommended fluid is brake fluid “DOT 3”.
Never reuse drained brake fluid.
Be careful not to splash brake fluid on painted surface of body. If brake fluid is splashed on painted sur-
faces of body immediately wipe off then with cloth and then wash it away with water.
Never use mineral oils such as gasoline or kerosene. They will ruin rubber parts of the hydraulic system.
Use a flare nut wrench when removing flare nuts, and use a flare
nut torque wrench when tighten brake tube flare nuts.
When installing brake tubes, be sure to check torque.
Brake system is an important safety part. If a brake fluid leak is
detected, always disassemble the affected part. If a malfunction
is detected, replace part with a new one.
Before working, turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect con-
nectors of ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) or the bat-
tery cable from the negative terminal.
WAR NING :
Clean brake pads and shoes with a waste cloth, then wipe with
a dust collector.
