OK, n00b here.I want to upgrade the brakes on my s13 to 300zx calipers all around.

Few questions first: (1) Are 300zx calipers the same as "Z32" and "R32 Skyline" calipers? (2) What parts do I need for the swap all around? A list of all the parts and accessories needed to complete the swap would be great.

-thanks

The Z32 is a 300ZX; it's just a generation designation. The R32 Skyline brakes will work on the 240SX but I'm not sure if they are identical to the 300SX brakes.

Here's a good write-up:

dude just go to advanceautoparts and get calipers/rotors/pads for a 92 300zx turbo. all you have to get afterwards is s14 to 300zx lines. with the re manufactured calipers from the store you have lifetime warranty. thats what i did.
