Back To Topic,

Now i have two options,

1- wait And look around for Z's Rear Brakes,(this will take time = not going to Track)
2- take a dayoff from work and fabricate an Adapter Plate For Rear Evo Brakes,
--------->
Regards,

Ali

EDIT :

Another FYI 300Zx/R32/R33 Have the same pads/caliper...my friend done 300zx brakes swap front and R33 Rear brakes....and when want to change pads he order 300zx pads....so project RDM is 150% Right....
No one is doubting your friend's car. No one cares either. Swinging your dick over someone else's car on a web board is ghey. Very, very ghey. You might as well put your tongue in his ass and film it for us. So he has an LS7, I saw a guy down the street who has a Ferrari. Shall I make a video of it to try and impress a bunch of faceless people on a web board I'll never meet, or even care to? Nope. Pointless.

Secondly, you seem to miss a very crucial point in brakes. Do some research. Bigger brakes do indeed reduce braking distance and braking fade over a long span, but the brakes themselves are considerably heavier, therefore increasing rotating mass at the hub. The brakes have to work harder to stop the car due to their own weight. So therefore going up to a larger rotor/caliper is in fact a step sideways, not forward. You gain the ability for better heat dissipation and long term fade control, but you're throwing more weight to he car, affecting the initial balance. Next, the first and primary concern for optimum braking is traction, so if your tires are shit or if they're not able to keep up with the braking ability of the car, larger brakes will be even worse. If you can lock the pedal up and make the car skid to a stop, the brakes are more than sufficient. You need better tires to keep up. Finally, the bias you're running has thrown the car off due to the front brakes being bigger than needed, especially using the OE master cylinder. What you deem as needing an upgrade really isn't the issue, your OE rear brakes aren't too small for your application, the fronts are too big. Switch the master cylinder out and I'm betting you'll realize you don't need anything else.

As far as the R32/R33 brakes, you have the make the distinction, not ALL model Skylines use the Sumitomo calipers. The BNR32 does as do the GTS-T models, but lesser models don't. Same for R33, the BNR33 used Brembos, I don't recall the ones that use the Sumitomos but it's a only a few in the range.
