before anyone begins to bash me for posting the following questions, hear me out. lol I searched around and i need a straight answer out of someone. People keep asking about clearance issues for the older 240s with stock 15s. I have a 97 240sx with the 16in SE alloys. I need to know, if i use the bigger 95 300zx brake setup 30mm, will the wheels clear enough for daily driving, if not, i've heard about the 90-93 26mm brakes warping due to aluminum. Also, i do not have ABS on my car, will this matter when swapping the 300zx brakes on? I want to use the 300zx tokico brake master cylinder as well, i wanna do the whole thing right the first time. Will that matter if i dont have ABS? If this has been straightly answered, just send me the link, otherwise, someone please throw some info my way. THANX GUYS.

1) the 30mm Z brakes will fit fine on the s14 SE wheels (s14 SE wheels happen to be the same wheels found on lower model R33 Skylines, that come stock with Z32 brakes)

2) Its probably better that you dont have ABS, so your set

Try checking out the install section of 240sx.org, I think there is a good write up there about the brakes.
