I have a 96 S14 SE with ABS and 5 lug. From the EBC web site catalog http://www.ebcbrakes.com/Assets/EBC2006USAautocat.pdf
I have ordered the green stuff brake pad (model number DP2792), but when I tried to install it, I found out it's bigger than the stock brake pad:

From the EBC web site, they have the size of the rotor's diameter. I have measured my rotor and it's 9.9 inch. There's another model (DP21279) which fits the 89-96 240sx. The DP21279's pad is smaller than the DP2792, it is also for the brake rotor with 9.9 inch, but it doesn't mention if it will with the 5 lug and ABS model.

I have searched but couldn't find any information about it. Does anyone has the similar experience with this?

By looking at the catalog...

89-96 Non ABS use the smaller braking system.
89-96 ABS use the bigger braking system.
All 97-98 use the bigger brakes.

EDIT: Now that I look at it again they're saying that the 94-96 ABS has the smaller brakes but uses the bigger pads.
