S14 front brakes on S13 - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I am nearly due to start fitting the parts for my 5 lug conversion to my S13

but I have just thought about the front brakes

I have the complete front hubs, spindles, calipers, rotors, etc... from an SR powered S14 to fit to my S13. The only thing is, will the original brake lines work with this setup ? Cause there will be an S14 connection on the calipers, but at the car side, t will be S13 fitment

I have been told, the old beake lines will not fit (but I dont know this for sure), but Goodridge do a brakline kit to suit the conversion

Is this right

You need the same "conversion" brake lines that we yanks use to put Z32 300ZX brakes on our S13s. Goodridge makes them, I believe the parts are also available from Aeroquip (pdm-racing sells them as a set).

Do you have the 4-pot S14 calipers or the single pot? Stock lines *may* (should) work with the single pot caliper, but you'd need 300zx conversion lines if you have the S14 4-pots.
