I'm getting ready to do the z32 swap on my brakes.I'll be getting all my parts rfom a 1990 NA 5spd 300zxWill the brake cables be the 2+2 style so the mounting them to the chassis will be easier?

I realize that the calipers will be 26mm aluminum, is thtat worth it? or should i try to get 30''?

And last one, i promise for now haha, will the hardware piece that mounts the 240spidle to the z32 back plate/e brake setup, be the right size from this car?

Your questions are all over the place.

2+2 cable. Check.

30mm calipers, pads, and rotors. Check.

Hardware piece? No check....

Bolt on brake package. Bleed system. Drive car to school/work. Done.

It doesn't matter 2 seater or 2+2 cables both will work just fine.

Get 30mm aluminum calipers. That's your best bet.

As far as I know 90 NA has correct anchor bolts. It looks like one on the right side. As you can see, it's thicker.
