I have installed Z32 calipers and rotors on my S14 and my caliper isn't sitting correctly on the rotor. The rotor is hitting the caliper and not letting the rotor turn freely. I have tried moving the rotor forward and back by adding a washing in between the caliper the upright. Has anyone had the problem before? How Can I fix this? Should I have used the Special bolts or washers to mount the Z32 calipers. Any help is appreciated!

I have tried adding different sized washers and no luck. Can anyone shine some light on this problem?

You should not need anything, the OE bolts and washers work fine. Sounds like you've got a mismatched set.

Probably, you are running 26mm calipers with 30mm rotors?

you have 30mm rotor and 26m caliper...you can grind the caliper to make it fit...OR you can buy/trade 26mm rotors

You guys are correct I have 26mm calipers with 30mm rotors. I had a set of iron 30mm calipers sitting in my shed and I swapped them today and they bolted right up. Thanks for your help!
