JMortensen Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 Pretty much any caliper that fits the rotor can be made to work. It will be a matter of making a bracket to fit and correct the offset from the stock caliper mount to wherever it needs to be to fit the rotor. Any machinist worth his salt can make you a bracket for any appropriate caliper. As to direct bolt on swaps, I don't think I've heard of any but you might try someplace that specializes in Z31s like z31.com. The one that comes to mind first is the Z32. I'd be surprised if someone hadn't done that swap yet, but I have no idea whether it bolts up or requires a bracket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoov100 Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 z32 aluminum calipers will bolt onto the later turbo z31's and are a direct fit.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frank280zx Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 z32's wil bolt on to any z31 the just need a small thin spacer if used on earlier struts like i use.. and on a early 79 s130 the wieght difference makes them very good ( given you use good pads like the portefield r4's orso) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triple B Posted September 21, 2007 Author Share Posted September 21, 2007 ahh ok so do you use a stock rotor (stock for Z31) or something else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
