anyone know if mitsu 3000gt tt brake calipers will work on an s13 with new rotors, 300zx bmc? My concern is if itll mount right, if the ebrake cable and brake lines will work off a 3000gt or maybe get 300zx brake lines? idk but cant seem to find an answer. Thinking about if i go 5 lug. Also what about the wheel fitting? i heard that ill need really low offsets to fit the calipers?

off the top of my head...

mitsubishi's brake caliper mounting tabs are much wider than nissan's. you're going to need a bracket to make it work.

300zx rotors won't work. they aren't tall enough.

300zx brake lines should work.

you don't necessarily need very low offset wheels. just wheels with the right spoke design.

for example, the 16x8 +46 stock 3000gt sl wheels will clear the early vr4 brakes.
