For the record I searched ;) and couldn't find a whole lot about the subject but I found out a local parts importing company got a gt-r32 front clip and the front brakes are in tact. And the slotted brembo rotors/stock claipers I have now on my track car aint cuttin it.. So I just wanted to know what all I need to get off this to put them on my '91 240. Also whats the smallest wheel I can run with these cuz I read that the rotors were 12.75(huge) and I know that I cant run the stock wheels with these(which SUCKS cuz I love the stock 7 spoke alloys) Also where would I buy pads for these at? And one more question are there any modification needed to fit these on(besides 86'n the dust sheild,thats just a given) Thanks for any help you guys may provide

??The calipers, rotors, hubs, brake lines?? Is that all I need. Would the break lines off the R32 work?

I have them on my s14. The s14 se wheels will clear them. If you don't have the 5 lug conversion you will need to redrill the rotors to your 4 lug pattern

Im gonna do a 5 lug conversion using parts from the skyline. Wouldn't all I need is the 5 lug hub to do that? And did you use the R32 brake lines? And would Z31 alloys clear them? Also anyone want to trade some S14 SE wheels for some S13 SE wheels lol? And one more question are they a bolt on thing? are would I have to make a bracket for the calipers etc..

no you won't. the hubs don't interchange unless you have an S14 in which case they might. I know for a fact the S13 will not accept Skyline hubs but I have never done the S14 so it's worth a try. The calipers will bolt to the hub, you may have play with washers to get it centered of the rotor but that's it. Get the master cylinder off the donor clip. You will need a minimum 1" master. It has "BM44" cast into the master cylinder housing. If you have ABS you will likely need a 1 1/16" master, "BM50"
