Ok, in a nutshell, my rear calipers are toast and i got a line on some 180sx calipers and rotors. My vehicle is a 95 S14 with 4Lug.
i've been searching, but since most of the information is for a s13, i would like some clarification.
Will the 180sx rear calipers bolt on to my s14 no prob with the current rotors or do i have to use the 180sx rotors, or am i hooped and need to find usdm 240sx calipers?

If z32 calipers bolt onto s13/s14 with no problems, what do u think.
So if the info u looked up on the s13 says the 180s bolt right on, then yes, they will bolt right on your s14.

Close. The ebrake brackets are different between S13 and S14 so they'll need to be swapped as well.

jesus christ! how many times can people say "just drill them out." it's not exactly rocket science. just buy some from from autozone.

No it's not. Have you ever seen dual drilled wheels? Same thing. It takes literally a minute to drill a rotor on a press to 4lug.
yeah, if you take them to a machine shop they can actually do it without cutting it too close to the other holes.
