I want to double check this, I can do a 300zx front brake conversion on a 4-lug s13 correct? I found some sweet rims and dont want to convert to 5-lug.Also, would it be possible to use the brembo brakes from a sentra SE-R?

Front no problem. Are you going to do rear too?

i dont think so, I hear with the rear I will have to like mess with the handbrake and stuff so I think I'll just do the front like most and then just upgrade pads, lines and rotors in the rear.

Then you shouldn't have any problem using z32 calipers on 4-lug in the front. Sorry, don't know about the Sentra calipers.

Not a problem at all, simple re-drill of the rotors and your golden. Just don't drill it yourself, have a machine shop do it right.

as long as the center hole is the same size, you cant really screw it up. i did mine on the drill press and they work fine!

If I may ask, is there no way to stay 4 lug w/o redrilling 5 lug rotors to 4 lug? I don't like the idea of conversion hubs, but if it as to be done, then so be it.

I hope I did not offend the OP or forum members for using this thread. I just didn't see the point of making a new thread for a simple question.
