s13 Going q45 breaks & z32 ebrake on a budget.. help?

What tools needed?

Straight bolt on?

And whould I need to bleed breaks?

I'm on a tight budget and if I don't get it figured out, guess I'll have to take my coupe to limitless.. what's the ball park on the full break swap? Q calipers, q rotors (to be redrilled), z32 ebrake set...

Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance!!!

Google and search button is your friend....Why are you doing a big BRAKE, (not break), swap anyway? Do you have a stock motor?

Several different sized sockets + wrenches will help you out.

Yes.

Yes.

If you're 4 lug, you'll need to redrill all rotors.

Brake swaps are time consuming if you do it on your own. So expect shops to rape you on price due to their hourly rates.

Double thanks for the correction.. I'm slowly getting my stock13 ready for a swap, I don't really have anything in mind yet.. but most likely something n/a, so maybe an ls.. Its going to be my daily for now and these stock brakes just don't cut it for me in this city traffic and cutting coners.. and if anybody is wondering why so soon? Well, I'm using the worn out pads as an excuse lol

Yikes, just got a quote of 300 for labor.. smh! guess I'm off to oreillys!
