the s15 brakes w/ rims<a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/aw-cgi/ebayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=601886524&r=0&t=0" target='_blank'>http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymot....r=0&t=0</a>. &nbsp; Not sure if these fit and what mods would be needed if they don't. &nbsp;Also are these four piston calipers?

s15 silvia K's brakes = z23 brakes.

Save your self some cash and just buy the z23 brake upgrade. Also be vary wary of buying &quot;JDM&quot; parts for sellers out side the US. There are boat loads of shanks that will take your money and run.

Yah, those are 4 pistons, that is crazy expensive though, especially when you look at the rust and shit, those have been sitting on a junker for a while. Would take some work to get them back to perfect condition..

Actually, IIRC, the s15 brakes are slightly different that z32 which is even worse b/c they you will have a helluva time finding pads and rotors. &nbsp;uuninja is right - just go z32!

You may be right, I think that the s14 K's used the same as the z23 I just ASSumed that the s15 would be the same. But if you are after stoping power z32's will be cheaper, proven and parts/pads are really availible.

####, unless it's for show points, JDM is meaningless. Good stuff can be made anywhere. And, as everybody's saying, just get the z32 brake setup
