bobbyc Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 i have a 73 240z...i'm playing around with the z32 rear calipers for my car...i've found a vented rotor that will work...it's the 240sx front rotor....or altima front rotor, prob gonna end up with the 240sx if this works....the stub axle diamter is to large to fit in the hat of the rotor....i was wondering how much i could safely have milled and not lose any integrity on the wheel stud...if any at all.

ezzzzzzz Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 How much do you need to take off to fit inside the hat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zcarnut Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 The amount you need to remove to fit the Altima/240SX rotor over the rear stub axle flange is fairly small. I think I needed to grind off maybe 1/8 inch on each of the four corners. I just used a bench grinder. I was putting vented rotors on the rear of an S30. I ended up using the early Maxima rotor which is slightly smaller in diameter than the Altima/240SX rotor (but otherwise the same) with some Mazda RX7 rear calipers and a custom bracket.
