Hey guys,

Girlfriend has a 93 240SX Coupe that she bought from a friend who was moving out of state (wisconsin to utah) The guy did some mods to the car (LSD/Seats/Suspension/brakes) Well he said the front brakes are from a Silvia S13 but the pads are from a 93 altimia? and the back ones are the same as 240sx brakes? Is this true? or what should i do when it comes to getting her brakes done? i was gonna go with some x-drilled and slotted rotors off ebay and pads but if there "silvia" rotors or calipers i don't know what to do? And please don't say 5lug lol.

Pretty sure JDM S13 brakes can use altima brakes w/ maxima rotors.

You'll have to search for sure though.

Silvia/ 180sx brakes use the same pads and rotors (I think rotors?) as altimas. They're slightly larger than stock.

Dont get ebay rotors. Just get some brembo blanks and call it a day.
