Well, Im at the point where my brake rotors are getting f*ckd up. Whenever I brake, the steering wheel starts to jiggle and just last night, I began to hear metal on metal which I know is the brakes. So for a summary, its time to repair. So this brings me to a forked path:

1) Buy new rotors and brakes. Simple

OR

2) Upgrade to Z32 setups all around

OR

3) Upgrade to S14 5 lug.

To be honest, Im not to sure about the S14 upgrade and I didn't think that was possible but Im sure its just because Im so use to hearing about the Z32 upgrade. So If I can get peoples input, that would be great.

And also the other reason Im thinking about it is because the semester is almost over which would give me a good winter project. :)

i think you're getting a bit confused

s14 5lug is not a brake conversion. it simply converts your s13 to a 5lug wheel setup using some parts from a s14.

your options in this context are 1) new stock stuff or 2) z32 /w drilled rotors for 4 lug or 3) z32 /w 5lug conversion
