Ali Alfadhli Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Hi everybody , I'm in process of my dream project restoring and modifying my 1973 240z , I have decided that to convert the front and rear to discs and the question is can I use 350z rotors , calipers and differential into 240z with no modification ? Thanks in advance Ali Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
getoffmyinternet Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 If by no modification, you mean extensive modification, then yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

getoffmyinternet Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 The moderator are pretty dang good at coming up with those member captions. Ali, do you happen to have the 350z differential on hand? Take a quick look at it, then crawl under the 240z and take an even quicker look at that one. Also, brake upgrades and drivetrain upgrades are two completely different things. You certainly can upgrade the brakes and use your stock diff. Just not with with 350z ones. Well saying you can't is perhaps a strong way of putting it, but like say, alchemy, it wouldn't be the greatest idea ever to try. Either way, for all intents and purposes your question has been answered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali Alfadhli Posted September 3, 2011 Author Share Posted September 3, 2011 Thanks for everybody , the plan was to save some $$$ since my friend has 350z junkyard in my country and I can get any parts for few dollars or you can say free and I'm replacing every part in my 240z and it is going to cost 32K , that's why . So I will contact Dave in AZC and buy the complete kit. Thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
getoffmyinternet Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 (edited) Skimping on brakes is like getting dressed up but not tying your shoe laces. That said, The stock Z brakes are adequate for street driving, autox, and drag racing. The stock Z brakes are adequate for street driving, autox, and drag racing. This is not a joke. Even with a V8 or turbo pushing lots of hp; The stock Z brakes are adequate for street driving, autox, and drag racing.
