B00STDZ Posted May 7, 2011 Author Share Posted May 7, 2011 any one know wer to get drilled through or slotted replacement rotors for the s30? Dont buy any that have been "custom" drilled on a new rotor. They are prone to cracking. Try to find one that has been CAST with holes in it. But besides that point, slots have been proven to be more effective and safer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mixer Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 I used z32TT aluminum calipers, 350z brembo 12.75 inch track rotor, z31 5 lug hub, kept the s30 spindle and bearing design, I designed my own caliper adapter, used Earls braided flex brake line, brake line mounts to bracket made onto adapter. This did create a slight offset for the new wheel. I believe it is around 22mm. I couldn't find an original seal that would fit the z31 hub and the original s30 spindle. I did manage to find a 350z seal that would work. I had to have the inner side of hub tooled out to fit new seal in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rags Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 Did you mount your caliper bracket to the front, unmachined side of the caliper mounting ears? Can you post pictures of your brackets and setup? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnc Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Then start making brackets. If you want it, got out and make it happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsxtcy Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 What's crazy is people have purchased kits of this conversion and nobody has reverse-engineered it to sell and make money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cockerstar Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Then start making brackets. If you want it, got out and make it happen. John is right on the money. Mock it up on a spare set of strut tubes and break out the calipers. It isn't rocket science to draw up something to have made at the machine shop, just a little R&D. Once you get it right order a quantity from where you had the prototypes made and sell them here to recoup your costs. I'm sure some people will buy them purely for the fact that they say "NISSAN" on the side. There's been plenty of interest for a kit in the past.

gsxtcy Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 found this on Yahoo Japan auctions http://page5.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/e121153869 Just not sure how to order them now. Does anybody have any experience with this? I used a translator to figure out the cost, just unsure if the seller is willing to ship so I sent him an email Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsxtcy Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 (edited) Okay everybody, I got the brackets and still doing some R&D. How many people would be interested in the Z32 caliper bracket? If I get enough interest I will produce them. Price would be about 150ish, which seems to be what brackets similar to this normally go for like 4x4, s13 rear calipers etc. Edited February 22, 2012 by gsxtcy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowrider Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 (edited) I would be on board, price depending of course. Edited February 22, 2012 by lowrider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jsal32 Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Count me in! But what about the rears? I.e. if you wanted to use Z32 rears as well. ...and I haven't heard anyone mention a brake m/c-booster combo to go with them. Any suggestions? -Jose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
