I am getting 180SX brakes for my S13. I am going to get 93 Maxima pads. Also I heard that 2002 Sentra SE-R rotors are the exact same size as Maxima rotors, only 4 lug, whereas Altima rotors are the same diameter but a little thinner. Has anyone heard of this?

Also are the 93 Maxima pads going to work for the 180SX calipers? Just wanna make sure. Thanks guys.

I'm not sure about the size of Maxima or Sentra SE-R rotors, but the Altima and the 180sx rotors are the same.

and this is an excerpt from Wikibooks

stock non abs s13 brakes VS 180sx style brakes

('93-'97) 1st generation Nissan altima rotors. These are 280x22mm and have a 4x114 bolt pattern.
('89-'99) 3rd and 4th generation Nissan Maxima brake calipers
('89-'99) 3rd and 4th generation Nissan Maxima brake caliper mounting brackets
('89-'99) 3rd and 4th generation Nissan Maxima brake caliper mounting bracket hardware kit
('89-'99) 3rd and 4th generation Nissan Maxima brake pads
These parts all directly bolt onto the s13 with no major modifications needed. This swap retains near stock
