In would just shop around a bit on some sites like the TireRack and so forth. I got some Brembo rotors off of eBay pretty cheap but I don't know if they would have any for the Sentra on there. Maybe if you ask out on teh general forum someone may know a good place to specifically to get them from.

If you are looking for brakes, get the ones off a NX2000. Also, any brake upgrade for the 91-99 SE-R will fit on your buddies sentra. The NX2000 are the biggest factory brakes that fit on the front. Any bigger will have to be aftermarket. Oh, also, he needs to have atleast 14" wheels for the nx2k brakes (I think the GXE is 14" stock, but might be 13")

Yeah, the NX brakes are a typical upgrade for any B13 or B14 SE-R.

What kind of suspension parts do you have? Do you have camber plates?

Also, just to let you know, $tillen is the biggest rip-off company in the world. 99% of the stuff they sell for our cars is actually made by JWT or other companies, and they charge double for it. They mislead newbies because of their mass-marketing, but their products are FAR from good. The only good stuff they make in house are strut-tower braces. Any other "good" parts they sell are made by other companies and can be found cheaper to go through their supplier.

If you guys want some MASSIVE brakes, go to http://www.mossyperformance.com and call them. Ask for Greg, and tell him I sent you, and you want the BABK's (Big A$$ Brake Kit).

I *THINK* they bought the rest of all of SMC's brakes before they went out of business. I'm not 100% sure on it though. But if they did, the rotors are I think 12.75" in the front and 11.5" in the rear (I think). With 4 piston willwood alluminum calipers in the front and 2 piston in the rear.

The whole kit I believe is about $2300, but it will only fit B13 and B14's (4x100) with 16" wheels or bigger (but will also fit under 15" Volk TE37's).

I think they may have a kit for B15's as well though, but I don't know the specs on it.
