Calipers/lines/pads/rotors/brake fluid will run you about $300

I did a write up on this... Piecing it myself. But if you buy them all at once at a junkyard you'll save a ton of money. But not everyone has the liberty and luck to find a z32 at the wrecking yard with good parts in tact.

I was one of the lucky ones that found a 90 NA Z32 and got the whole suspension/pumpkin/MAF/Brake MC and wheels with good rubber for mere $400

But if you look in Autozone, they got reman Z calipers for 55Each plus core. That was what I was planning on doing untill I came accross the Z in the yard.

so, if i could just find a cheap set of z calipers, i can buy remanufactured ones at an auto parts store, and then i would need to paint them or get them powdercoated....

i may do that. are there any other suggestions?

If your local store is particularly stupid, you might be able to turn in your 240sx calipers as the core instead of getting 3Z ones.

yeah, i had heard about this. I might give that a try.

If i can find a fully built remanufactured caliper, then i suppose i could paint them myself.

looks like ill have to go with this method, if no one else comes up with anything else.
