ok, from what i understand 350Z front calipers fit on S13, if im correct what will i need for that swap, besides the calipers...

will i need Z32 lines or any thing to convert?

Will the S13 stock brake line work on the 350Z caliper?

sorry if it's been asked.

You need the caliper from a 350z track edt and brembos discs from the trac edt z and some new braded lines and you should be good to go !

ok..im not sure if the calipers are from Z track edition but... there red and off a 350z, theres a frontclip at my friends shop and he's selling the calipers and rotors dirt cheap..

im guessing even if there not track edition they will bolt up and be better than stock S13 calipers and rotors..now my ?? is will they bolt up even if there not track edition calipers.

i hope they do bolt up..

How would the bias be if I were to use the 350Z/G35 brembo calipers and rotors in the front and the STi/Evo calipers and rotors in the rear?

Pm me lets chat.


the set up I will be using is the Z32 rear braking asembly + the Infinity G37S rear caliper and brake - its a 13.8 rotor + the rear caliper is massive. this is the best way to go.

Did you read anything in this thread? Rear calipers have a wider spacing for the mounting ears, you need to make a bracket.

z33 track brakes are nice..but i went the z32 setup and bought the caliper bracket that made the front brakes accept the 12.75" rotor..something to think about as well.

I just thought of this, but you could swap the Spec V brembos and stay 4lug. Spec Vs are the same bolt pattern as 4lug 240s. If you're shelling out the money to get brembos you might as well go 5 lug, but technically it is possible to stay 4..

Good info definitely a +1 on pics and supplying info but it seems like the S13 chassis would be a lil different as far as converting to 5 lug wouldn't you have to possibly drill out the mounting points where the coilovers are bolted up to as well to fit a 14mm bolt too right?

or would it be the other way around to where you drill the holes on the coilovers to fit the S14 knuckle????

it's just a five lug swap, and there are a bunch of ways to execute it. you can also redrill the rotor. not something you need to bump an 18 month old thread for.

Hey guys, sorry for bumping up an old thread.

It's been almost 3 years since. Has anybody made any brackets that allowed the 350z rear calipers to mount onto the S14/S13 chassis?

Currently, I'm on the Z32 front and rear brake (w/ z32 e-brake) conversion for my S14.

With the fronts being an easy redrill, the rears are still troublesome because fabbing a new bracket from scratch takes so much time, where i'd prefer if someone had a diagram that would help fabricating a LOT LOT easier for me.

Otherwise, if all else fails, I'll sell my Project Mu setup and, I'll just go about and use Z32 Calipers w/ 350z Track Edition rotors via bracket I bought.

Sigh.

Better question is, do your really need bigger rear brakes than Z32 rears? You're stopping a damn sub-3000 lbs car, not a fucking SUV.

It's going towards my LS3 Showcar build in the next 2-3 years. Plus I found a pretty good deal on these brakes.

So the answer to that question is "No."

I wasn't even aware that people built show cars anymore.

I did a write up over on skylines AU Cefiro/ Laurel section on these and another version of brackets on my A31 Cefiro.

It is the same install as on a S13 and S14. I have already tried this on a S13.
Useing Track edition brake rotors on Skyline / Z32 Brake calipers

Here is the link: 350Z / G35 Track/ Brembo Rotor Adapter Install On A31 Cefiro - Cefiros and 4 Door Sedans/Taxis - Skylines Australia

If the mods want I can re-write the how to here.
