S13 and Sentra brembo brakes

[TogueDrifter]

Are the brakes on a SER SpecV interchangable onto the S13?

[Nismo_Freak]

Doubt it, measure the caliper.

[TogueDrifter]

Sorry I should have specified. I ment would the brembo brake package off a SERspecV fit onto the lug bolt pattern on the s13? If the Lug bolt pattern is the same than I believe I can fit the front calipers and rotors on with my 17's.

yes they are bolt on. unlike the G35/350 brakes they require no modifications...well drilling 5 lug if you have that. also you have to use 17" rims.

[TogueDrifter]

Yes I do have a pair of 17" rims on now. Oh, does it matter If the sentra's braking system has ABS, and my S13 does not?

[barrigas14]

no, it is just the brakes that you are swapping. but you might have your brake pedal feel "squishy." some guys that do the Z32 brake swap get that but some don't. bigger M/C will help with that. but other than that, it should all bolt up.

oh forgot to say that you need brake lines if you didn't know that already.

I was gonna replace the M/C with an OEM...The brake lines should be S13 or Sentra? My guess would be S13.

i actually

i actually don't know...cuz i didn't ask...but i think you use the Z32 brake lines for the conversion. if you want to find out check out freshalloy and a guy over there uses the G35/Z brembos and it should be the same brake lines.

where is this "freshalloy"?

Bad idea, bro. Larger calipers in front require a larger amount of hydraulic fluid to properly compress them . I've got an s13 that I installed 30mm z32 calipers and rotors onto, and with the stock M/C, the brake pedal is an on/off switch. Very spongy about halfway down, and with any more than medium pedal pressure, you lock your brakes up.

Go with the 1 1/16" M/C, or at the very least, the 15/16" Nabco cylinder. Bolts onto your stock brake booster and with a tiny bit of modification to the way the lines are routed and installed into the cylinder, you'll be VERY happy you did.

1 1/16 or 15/16... what's oem? Where can I get this Nabco cylinder?
