Yeah so I'm broke but my car needs new brakes. I'm looking for some cheap prices for 300zx turbo 30mm rotors the best price I've found so far is 43 per rotor...

does anyone know of cheaper prices?

Do you want cheap rotors? or GOOD rotors? Cheap, go to pepboys or napa, GOOD go to a shop that sells performance parts.

they are dirt cheap on nopi.com, only $17. it says non-turbo but they should be the same after '91. i would call them to be sure.

i got a set of stock rotors and shipping was only $13.

Nopi's always got the best deals on rotors.

So those $17 blanks should be OK for 91' calipers?

yes they will work if you have 5-lug. I am 100% sure.

Nopi is backordered 4-6 weeks on these rotors. I just spoke to them.

how are you sure? their site shows the same part number for all the front rotors, including the '90 N/A, which is the 26 mm rotor. and it says non-turbo for all of them. i wouldn't buy anything without knowing for sure.

Yah I was wondering bout that...Nopi only advertise the N/As so would those blanks work with 30mm calips?

ummm....nopi does not carry the 30mm rotors...how do I know??? I called them up and asked them if they have 300zx TT rotors and they said that they don't carry those, so the rotors advertised on nopi site are the 26mm. The 9.33 240sx rear rotors are on back order...

I checked around and the best price I got was brembo blanks for 39 shipped / rotor and that was from CIP.

I'm not sure if I trust nopi. I ordered brembo blank rotors from them a year or two ago for the stock front 240sx brakes. The price was uber cheap but instead of brembo, I got bradi brakes or something like that. They're in someway a related company to brembo but the quality just isn't nearly the same. I figured I would have had my Z brakes done sooner otherwise I wprobably would have sent them back. Like I said the price was stupid cheap, but for something I was going to keep for 2+ years I would have looked elsewhere.

Well, I actually spoke to a Nopi sales rep, and he told me they would work. BUT, sales rep's being sales reps... you probably shouldn't trust that. If they are selling rotors for 91+ z32's and they aren't 30mm then they are pretty much false advertising.

Why don't you just call them, and ask for yourself. It takes 2 seconds.
