I have found new kits that run for like $800 or so, and I have seen where I could use 300xz rotors and/or four piston caliper conversions but not enough details, If there is someone that might have experience or done a front brake conversion,please let me know. There is also the Toyota calipers, but I would rather spend the extra $ and effort for vented rotors.

If you're not racing the car on the track, you might be happy with just upgrading to the stock 280ZX vented front brakes.
