Well, the lug sizes for 240s and 300s are: 4-lugs = 4x114.3, 5-lugs = 5x114.3

Any 240 or 300 5-lug rotors are compatible with eachother. Just order 91-96' 300zx front rotors, they're all the same size. And the rears are also the same.

Hope this helps.

What brakes do you have?

If you have stock brakes, use the stock rotors re-drilled for 5 lug, or just use the S14 rotors.

If you have z32 brakes, use the z32 rotors, and you don't need to get them re-drilled (obviously)

Z33 calipers will not bolt up to the best of my knowledge.

if he has the calipers and rotors sitting around, give it a shot. most of us would like some concrete info. no one will buy the parts just to test it because they are so expensive. most people that say they don't fit say that because they don't think so, not based on actual fact. in their defense, i think i remember hearing something from someone. the rotors should fit and the caliper should only need some kind of bracket. some engineering and machining would be necessary but not too difficult otherwise.
