I keep looking on this forum and there is nothing on stock brakes. I keep picking up Z32 Brakes... I need to find out how to get my stock rotors and brakes off and back on... Does anyone know where to find a writeup or a DIY thread... I can't seem to find one for a S13 on stock brakes...

Please someone help me

Well, pretty simple. Two bolts hold on the calipers, take those off. And the rotors are floating, so they will just slide off. You can try to find a Chiltons manual or something if you need more than that.

jack up car, lay it on jackstand... remove wheel.. (brake the lug nuts loose if not usin air tools), remove 2 caliper bolts... hang caliper with a zip tie or bungy cord...... then wack rotor.. with a hammer( or what ever u can find that worthy) and it should slide out with ease... and then reverse for puttin everything back on, might need some sort of channel locks or a c-clamp the spread the pads.. so u can place it bacck on with ease....
