It's possible you need to either redrill the rotors or buy some that are already drilled for 4 lug. Search the forums and google how to's. Get under your car and actually take a look. Experience and tinkering with the car will give you more insight on how things fit and work.
P.S. I bought my 4 lug 300zx rotors from the vendors on here.

Yeah you can do it. Just go get your rotors redrilled to fit 4 lug or get 4/5 lug rotors.

I believe Phase 2 Motortrend sells some rotors like that!
I think they go for about $140 for front rotors. check out their website

another question would the 300zx caliper be a direct bolt up swap for the factory s13 caliper?
