brakes

[xoxide]

Hey guys, im stumped on brakes for my S13



My car will primarily be for drifting, so rear brakes are important

Im thinking 3 options,



1st would be running Z32 calipers and rotors all the way around, only thing im unsure about is the rear ebrake, is the drum ebrake any good? Also 30mm or 26mm, and aluminum or iron?



2nd would be running Z32 calipers and rotors up front and wilwoods in the rear, but the issue with that is would the ebrake even work with wilwood calipers or what would I have to do?



Or should I just use the OEM rear calipers with better pads, lines and rotors? But with that how would I go 5 lug in the rear with the OEM calipers?

I dont like the look of Q45's which is why they werent on my list. As for OEM rears, thats what I perfer to do, but how do I run 5 lug with the OEM S13 calipers? What kind of rotors/caliper mounts would I need?

you can buy rotors that are 5 lug and get either s14 or z32 5 lug hubs, and your stock brakes will mount up fine. look at this if you want a better ebrake

Or you could use altima brakes

Ah cool cool, so I could maybe pick up some aftermarket rotors for the S14 (since theyll be 5 lug) and theyll mount right up?

And I like the idea for the hydo-brake, The honda clutch cylindar would worK?

I used r1 concepts for the rear rotors that I changed recently. OEM fit.

i have not tried it yet. but i think it will. it flows free when not pressed in and makes pressure when its pressed in. i know im going to try it. and if i cant get it to work then wilwood sells them for 50 bucks.

oh and i forgot to add that the z32 hubs only work if they are non turbo.

and i believe you can use an s14 rotor, but make sure it for and se. not all s14's are 5 lug.
