The rotors that I had ordered don't set back on the hub far enough, so the caliper can not be bolted to the nuckle and fit over the rotor. I picked up the rotors from advance auto and I had to special order them for a 90 300zx. Did they just send me the wrong rotor or do I need to look for another year. From what I understand the 26mm calipers were on the N/A 89 and 90 300zx.
Also, I picked up my new Z32 master cylinder, but I need the small flare that goes in one of the lines. Does anyone know where I can pick this up? The importnut write up for the 300zx swap said to cut the flare out of the stock master cylinder, but I returned mine for the core before I realized I needed the part.

from my understanding, the difference between the disc for the calipers is the thickness of the disc, not how is being fitted on the car. I think you might have the wrong hub. I will definitely call advance auto first, and confirm you have receive the correct disc, and go from there. BTW, if you can post some pictures, that would help too, I just got the brakes n 5lug conversion done like 2 weeks ago. I will try to post some pictures later.
