are silvia s14 brakes compatable with the s13? i searched and couldn't find anything. the rears look like they might work though and the fronts look similar to the z32 calipers. just wondering if the whole hub assembly will work thanks

everything will bolt right up, you just need s14 fornt lower ball joints pressed into your stock lower controll arms.

Why not go Z32 brakes? I just finished mine up, but I had to reuse my 240sx BMC, the z32 one I had was BAD Will rebuilding it work? or is it cheaper to get a refurbished one from NAPA?

You dont NEED the Z M/C. If youre satisfied with the pedal feel, youre all good. It is feels mushy, get another Z M/C. You can try a used one again if ya want or get one from NAPA, AutoZone, etc.

Those fronts in the Ebay auction are the same as Z32 front brakes. The rears look like stock brakes. I think theyre off a Silvia K

I know I dont' NEED one, but the pedal feel has no improvement in my opinion. Hearing from other people, braking feel way better with the z32 BMC. Thos rebuild kits are expensive! refurbished ones are like 80 plus 29 dollar core. I think I will go with the refurbished one.
