    --HELP--S14 brake into s13

    Hi everyone, I want to put s14 brake (rotor280x30, calipers 4pot) into my S13 with 15" rims. There is enough space?
    Thanks to all
    Alessandro

    As Danny says,

    Q: Will Z32 (300ZX) or s14/14a front calipers go under standard wheels ?

    Prefacelift

    Facelift with webbing but 15mm spacers and longer studs are required.

    Facelift without webbing but 5mm spacers and, really, you should use longer studs.

    You have facelift wheel but its not possible to tell from the outside if they have webbing or not.

    Here is a picture of the inside of a facelift wheel without webbing.

    My S13 is a '91-'92 one and it seems to be a facelift, in fact it has the smooth front bumper, but it has 256 (or 257, don't remember) rotors.


    Why?

    is it a 91 or a 92 ?
    someone might have changed the bumper

    what seats do you have ?
    dose your car have a lambada sensor ?


    some facelifts will have prefacelift parts nissan will have just phazed them out
    instead of dumping load's of stock use them up before swapping over

    I have aftermarket 15" alloys, and did not need spacers with S14 calipers

    Can be different from country to country. In Belgium S13 never came with 280mm rotors.
    Don't know about Italy...

    Could some of you post a photo with 280rotors fitted under 15" rims?

    These are mines, but it seems that 280x30 rotors with S14 4 pot caliper won't fit under it. Sob.



    Maybe I already have 280x22 rotors, but I don't think so.

    (can you see the smoke from the caliper? Lovely mountain roads)

    there's lots of inconsistent parts fitted in 91-92. the only way to get a genuine fully updated facelift is to get a 93 onward model as that's when they all came with 280mm brakes and a vlsd

    Got vlsd, but I don't know if I also have 280 brakes.

    Uhm Uhm Uhm.

    No time to check it, though...

    Make sure you put the calipers the right way around when you get round to fitting them
