I was wondering if you have to do a Five hub conversion to a S13 in order to install skyline GTS calipers? If not then how do you Install them on the standard four hubs?

brakes typically have nothing to do with bolt pattern

for example u can put Z32/GTR calipers on a 240sx with 4 lug, just need to redrill the rotor

GTS calipers im not sure but i would guess the mounting points wouldnt change for those calipers

Are there any 4lug rotors I can get that will be the right size? How big are the skyline Rotors?

Just drill the GTS rotors, you won't be able to find GTS sized rotors in 4 lug this side of custom. It's very simple to drill rotors.

I was just afraid the rotors will crack but I guess thats what I'll have to do

By the way does anybody know were I can find a Intake kit for a RB25DET

They won't crack. I ran drilled rotors for over a year without issues.

ou need the gts rotors to go with the front calipers, the z32 rotors are going to be a 1/4" off from being able to be bolted up to the rotors

:loco: if you wanna be really cheap you could run the rubber snorkel thing with a filter on the end, or just get some tubing and fab one up real quick

Why in the World would you think they would crack?

Because any time you put a hole in something you change its structural integrity plus one of the biggest arguments against cross drilled rotors is that they can crack even though I've never heard of them cracking

just do a air filter... we tested metal air intake pipes on an SR and lost power over the plastic/rubber. it doesnt sound as cool, but if u want it to be loud buy a new turbo.

A Skyline GTS is 4-lug, so the question is moot.
Learn proper chassis terminology and that lug pattern doesn't matter as much when you have a drill press.
