S13 Q45 front brake conversion question
Hey, I just picked up a pair of Q45 front calipers for my s13, and I was reading over some posts about the conversion. Someone mentioned that you may be able to use Altima rotors with Q45 calipers so you dont have to drill anything for 4 lug. Has anyone used these before, and are they any different performance wise from the Q45 rotors?
Also, can anyone reccomend any budget performance pads for the Q45's? Thanks -Llama

yes, use it as a template, and stick a 1/2 inch bolt in the hole that lines up and drill the other holes. be sure to keep everything lined up.

take it to a brake shop and they will drill it for you! otherwise save and go 5 lug like you should. i had this swap in my s13. great brakes but wait to go 5 lug! if you have more questions pm me!
