Is this a good deal?

I have the opportunity to score the following parts but I need to know if it would be worth the asking price of $375:

2 30mm 300zx front calipers2 300zx rear calipers2 300zx front rotors2 300zx NA front 5 lug hubs2 300zx rear rotors2 300zx rear 5 lug hubs2 300zx rear aluminum uprights

I know that I will still need the s14 front spindles, conversion lines, and 300zx rear e-brake assembly to complete the 5 lug swap and brake upgrade. How much do you think it will cost to source these parts (used)? Another $300 perhaps?

Thanks,-kouki

I have already tried searching quite a bit but I still haven't found the answer to one critical question. Can I use the 5 lug 300zx hubs on the front if I have an s13 or do I have to source s14 SE hubs? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

that is a good price.. i would jump on it... it would be about 100$ for the conversion lines, and i believe, but dont quote me, that you would have to get the s14 parts for the front to work. those would be i think about 150$, and probably dirt cheap for the e-brake assem. at a junk yard.. good luck on the swap

Price looks good. The Z brakes alone usually sell for $300-350.

I assume you have a S13...http://www.nissanperformancema...240sx/

All of it is worth it, but the front hubs are useless to you.

Great price. Z brakes are expensive. Jump on it before someone else does.
