Do Q45 discs work for 4-114.3 240s? if not, what brakes for a 4 lug 240 are a good upgrade if any, and if you know what are the part numbers? any help would be great thanx

q45 brakes will work for 4lug 24o's. You just have to get 4lug rotors. The calipers themselves dont many any difference.(the only calipers that won't clear are the GTR (3omm) and the 3omm 300zx calipers, but the 26mm 3oozx' calipers DO fit) The upgraded calipers that can be used are : z32, r32 GTR, Q45, S14 K's. All of these vehicles came with 5lug rims and hubs though, so naturaly you're either going to have to convert to 5lug or just get 4lug rotors. Im getting 4lug rotors for my R32 GTR brake swap from heavythrottle.com for 149.99 plus shipping. Really not a bad deal for cross drilled/slotted 11.o inch rotors

^^Not sure what you're saying. But, If you have a 4 lug you have the choice of either doing a 5 lug swap or you have to get the q45 rotors redrilled to a 4 lug pattern. If you take a 4 lug rotor and a q 45 rotor to a machine shop they can just line up the big center hole, turn the rotors so that one hole on each rotor lines up and then drill the remaining 3 holes that have to be drilled. They will then fit perfect on the 4 lug 240. As for part numbers, just go to a car parts store and ask for front calipers for a 1995 q45 and two front rotors from the 95 q45 as well..
