It's perplexing that the information is so hard to find. 92 S13 with stock brakes. Non ABS. 5 lug swapped with conversion hubs only. Specifically which S14 5 lug rotors fit with the s13 calipers and pads?

It's clear its non abs 5 lug models, abs have larger diameter and thickness rotors. So any non abs 5 lug rotor?

Man you are lost I'll spoon feed you s13 s14 abs and non-abs rotors are all the same only difference the holes. So that mean you can run abs rotors on your non-abs car just going to have an extra hole for abs sensor. Make sure you also get the right amount of holes for your lug nuts too...

Funny bc I read a specific wrote up on zilvia where the guy installed s14 rotors on his 5 lug s13 and the diameter and thickness were slightly difference hence the rotors did not fit. And when I say s13 I'm referring to 97 kouki with abs is where his rotors were sourced from. A mix of this type of information has led to my confussion reguarding the front rotors. I definitely don't need to be spoon fed after just rebuilding the back half of my s chassis in a week and a half.

Sounds like u need s14 non abs rotors?? If u have friends with spare ones lying around try em out, make it a community puzzle!

Drift_86 · 12-16-2015, 01:32 PM

Listen, they are the same.

GirthBrooks · 12-16-2015, 01:35 PM

Ok, thank you for the clarification drift86

Next time post this in the correct spot. This does not need its own thread, look in the stickies for chat for the answer to where you should post.
