Same as any other S/R/Z chassis, they bolt right up. You'll need to drill the rotor.

But you knew this right?

i apologize for my ignorance...i have been learning alot here..im a big toyota guy...im learning more and more about the nissans...thanks for the help...will this 5lug front work for a swap

Hubs will not work. S14/S15 5lug only, with spindle.

Calipers all bolt up fine.

cant forget about the s14 ball-joint into the the s13 lca.

Ok you can make it work for S-13 you will just need S-14 5 lug hubs, the Spindle has all the e-brake hardware and R33 is the e-brake cable you need to use for the swap, that way you can have the "cool" 2 piston calipers in the back with the big rotors. I do this swap on a regular basis for $850 it includes all parts. If anyone is interested I can take step by step pics of the swap on the 13 and the 14 14 is a direct bolt on Except you have to press out the HICAS bushing and press in a solid S-14 bushing.

Notice he inquired about front brakes. We all know what's required for rear brakes. And you're breaking it off in people's asses for $850. That's easily $650 in labor.

And S14 LCAs can be used in place of S13 LCA w/S14 balljoint if you don't mind a little increased camber.

My mistake for not reading everything but $850 for a full swap parts and labor is totally fair I have done 18 swaps already and had no complaints. So with that being said you opinion taken in to account and filed but does not matter to me what you think about my price.

[projectRDM]

I wasn't complaining, I think it's great. I wish I could find people like that to kill. 240 owners in the US have no money and can't afford to pay for an oil change most times. You finding enough people to support you with that kind of money is like finding the pot at the end of the rainbow.

thanks agian
silviasichigo...do you sell all the parts needed for the rear?...if so how much....could you send me a pic of the parts included..thanks....Jeff

R32/R33 are the same as Z32, but the BNR33 are larger. Make sure you know which type you have first, also make sure to order Z32 TT rotors, the 30mm size, the earlier 26mm brakes weren't used on R chassis cars.

The rears can be sourced off a Z32 for cheap, same parts. You can get salvage calipers and blank rotors for right around $200. Ebrake assembiles for another $40-80 usually.
