S13 rotor help - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I know this has probly been answered a few times, but I can't get a straight forward answer. I got z32 30mm iron calipers, I would like a nice rotor setup so I'd like to know a few options. I really want 2 piece but not sure if it's worth it / cost effective for a street car. What other kind of bigger rotor setup can I use? Mabey a link to a site or thread that would help? I appreciate the help.

So... you want rotors bigger than the Z32 rotors? Building some sorta crazy race car with super grippy tires?

There are (or were) some people on ebay selling caliper mounting brackets that would allow you to use 350z or 370z or STI rotors, I can't quite remember. But you could try looking there.

What makes you want to run 'nicer' than 300z rotors on your 240? I'm curious... that upgrade alone is perfectly fine the way it is.

If you're looking to top out on the nice chart you can spend the cash on wilwood gear or brembo.

I have these http://www.enjukuracing.com/products...32-Brakes.html

Never used because they were too thick for my calipers. PM me if you are interested in buying them cheap.

MrMigs · 06-24-2014, 07:46 PM

Wait wait... how did they not fit? If you have the 30mm calipers, aren't those the "bigger" Z32 calipers? (the smaller ones being 26mm) Or am I going crazy?

Just gets some descent pads and slotted rotors, but anyways all the spending will be pointless if u have terrible tires

Surffer227 · 06-24-2014, 08:31 PM

Yea all the cheap tires go in the rear lol, I plan on getting some really grippy tires up front to throw that 1j weight around

Surffer227 · 06-24-2014, 08:32 PM

Any sites recommended to get my pads rotors and lines all in one place?

*anti tyler* · 06-24-2014, 08:46 PM

This is possibly too confusing for me...

I don't see how those rotors wont fit your calipers? What's not fitting, the width of the rotor?

I've had the same set of rear tires for 2 years now. Never go cheap.

Buy this brackets, where they allow you to use 350z brembo rotors (12.75 inch)

I had them on my car and they are great.

This bracket allow you to use 300zx calipers with 350z 12.75 inch rotors on s13. plug and play. You can get some aggresive 350z brembo track rotors or two piece tmrotors for cheap. I was using factory rotors on my car and it was a great set up.

Surffer227 · 06-24-2014, 10:15 PM

Tmrotors? I would be interested in some cheap 2 pieces lol
