alright i have to update this because this seems to be a reference thread for people. i did the swap and ran into a few issues. i have the pads hanging off the rotor as well like black s13 so thats confirmed. I will post pictures for everyone when I am ready to. also, these brakes DO NOT I repeat DO NOT clear steel wheels. I have stock steelies and they drag all the way around. I ground down the inside part of the wheel where it drags (very slightly its a beefy spot) and then I ground down the caliper over 1/16th and it still drags for me. DO NOT do this swap unless you have alloys. They drag from the flat all the way to the front on me and it sucks. Im going to deal with the thumping dragging until my rims come in this week and I pray i have no more problems with this. I used brackets and calipers from a 94 maxima and altima rotors. Another thing to consider is I purchased everything new/rebuilt from autozone. The brake pad retaining clips from the stock brakes appeared to function when I bent them but I believe they were a real bitch to get in and i think they are dragging on the rotors because the new ones are alot thicker and I will be getting new ones tonight to replace them from autozone. I will update with pics from the digicam and more later so people can see a real idea of what this swap is truly like.
