im not sure about s13, but i know that z32's and s14 SE are 5 luggers, and its a direct swap (you have to take the dust shield off and thats it, tin snips can cut if off aswell). if you keep the 4 lug part, youll have to have the rotors redrilled in the proper pattern. IIRC (don't quote me on this) i think z32 e-brake cables work on s13s, but you have to moddified the one for the s14. if you have the 5 lug, its literally a direct swap, i suggest you get the conversion lines that are braided stainless steel and if your calipers are old (remembers there are also 2 variants of z32 brakes, aluminum and cast iron, i suggest the aluminum if your into saving weight, but they are more expensive) id suggest rebuilding them. any other specifics feel free to ask.

Yep, what he said.

But do yourself a favor and don't drill the 4 lugs, just do a 5 lug swap first, trust me.

I've heard of using the AT brake booster and 240 MC to help with the new brakes. Zilvia.net had a VERY good write-up on this, but I can't find it anywhere...

Q45 brakes are also an option for the 4 luggers

[9524tee]
