Nathan,

Also check to make sure that the crossover tube does not interfere with
the stock wheel.  The right side crossover tube I purchased from the
local Nissan dealer would fit properly, but it interfered with the
wheel.  The correct tube for the roadster must cross from the outside to
the inside at the top beyond the end of the caliper in the area where
the rotor is exposed.  If the tube bends around the caliper body, it
will interfere with the stock wheel.
