Hello HybridZ! My 240z recently seized up its drums at the track and I thought it is time to convert to a disc brake.

BAD POINTS WILL BE HIGHLIGHTED IN RED. 1. Removing the Stock Drums There are tons of write ups on this- 2 replies

Beyond that, the casting for the caliper, where the brake line attaches, interferes with the
