Guessing Not Long Enough.

"You do not want to use the 240's lines. People have used the stock banjo fitting with a shorter bolt, but it is not the right fitting for the 300ZX caliper. The 300ZX caliper does not have the tabs to hold the banjo fitting in place. Without the tabs, the banjo fitting can spin and loosen the bolt."

i guess you can use the z32 lines, but i wouldn't trust the s-chassis lines hooked up all ghetto like. braided stainless conversion lines aren't even 100 bucks for all four.

Knight, please make little updates like this in your build thread. You pt Z32 brakes on a S14 and some tension rods, nothing ground breaking that deserves its own thread.
