when upgrading to Z32 brake calipers on a S13, is it necessary to upgrade the brake lines as well? or would the stock S13 brake lines work fine?

also, would the Z32 calipers work with the stock S13 4 lug rotors? i'm trying to avoid doing the 5 lug conversion unless it is absolutely necessary.

the stock s13 lines wont fit the Z calipers, so upgrading is a must

no the stock rotors wont work, you just need Z32 rotors and have them re-drilled for 4 lug, search for Z32 brake swap, im sure youll find it
