for the rear.. you use the z32 rear hubs, Z32 brake rotors, Z32 ebrake assemlbly, Z32 calipers, and some conversion brake lines. You will have to adapt the ebrake line to yours.

For the front you cant use Z32 hubs.. so look for another alternative *i did 4-5lug drill out, worked great*. on the front, cut ,remove or alter the brake dust shield, use z32 front rotors, calipers, and conversion brake lines.

^ or get ichiba/attain/whatever after market front hubs and press your OEM bearings into them, and then put them on.

another option is using s14 spindles and FLCA and 5 lug hub that way. more annoying in my opinion. but yeah, try searching a little more, there's tons of info on this on zilvia/google.

Also, don't forget to make sure your choice of wheel size & offset will support the larger rotors/calipers.

And like HyperTek said, you don't necessarily have to change to 5 lug to do Z32 brakes. Drilling out 5 lug rotors for 4 lug is uber-simple- that's how I did my first one. Easiest way to do 5 lug is S13 plug & play 5 lug hubs as already mentioned. A lot of kits nowadays even come with the bearings already pressed in.... They're all over Ebay if you haven't tried Google yet haha!

I suggest only letting noobs browse and post in a designated area that contains ALL the stickies of all the research that has went into these cars. Once they have 20 useful posts then they can post in the general forums. This will eliminate all this useless traffic of questions that were answered 15 years ago. Just my 2 cents. I am a mod on 240sxforums and we have this system in place. It really does a great job of clearing up useless traffic!
