first of all, it's unlikely that racing brake will produce a unique setup for an old car that they don't even have front rotors for. it's even less likely for a cobbled together setup from several different cars. our best bet is to get their existing parts to work together in a new way to work for us. if there are minimal changes, they may start marketing it as a 300zx kit (which will obviously work on our cars).
fyi, the two piece rotors with a DIH parking brake use a cast iron hat so the weight savings is minimal.

but we're not retaining z32 rotors, we're replacing them with a new setup. you are saying use a z32 rotor so it doesn't matter if you use the STI or z32 caliper since they both work on the same rotor. we basically want a two piece version of the z32 rotor. there is no z32 hat yet so they would have to produce one. as i said, that's pretty unlikely so we should try to use something else. you started talking about STi parts so maybe i got off track.
the STi disc is too big to use with either caliper on a nissan so we can use the cobra disc since it's the right size for the z32 caliper or evo disc with the brembo caliper.
the only issues we need to cover are if a hat they produce (STi or otherwise) will give us the right offset and inner diameter and depth for the parking brake

isn't swapping the stock z32 rotor the point of this discussion?
whatever, i'm on my way home, i'll im you.
