This guy is selling a front brake kit. They are Z32 calipers with brand new pads, and Skyline R32 rotors. And he said that he is going to put in new brake lines (stainless steel). Of course, they are used, and they are from Japan. He is willing to sell them for $450. Do you guys think this is a good deal for a front kit? Or should I look somewhere else and forget about it? Tell me what you guys think. PEACE

Are you shure that the skyline rotors will fit in combination with the Z calipers. If they are much bigger than the stock Z discs you would need some kind of adapter to move the caliper outward. I duno much about skyline rotors maybe there the same size?

Hey. Werent you at the meet today with a white S13??? At Cartune (1/11/03). Well anyway. The rotors are 29mm, from what I remember. And the guy drilled the holes so they would fit in both s13s and s14s. But he said that the brakes would fit in fine in my car. and he said that he has the kit in such a way where I basically just have to slide it on. I guess the Z calipers do fit then, or else I dont think he will be selling a "kit." PEACE

It's a pretty good deal, the 300zx calipers alone would run you about $300+, and with rotors, lines, and pads in there, your saving a good amount.
