300zx brake conversion onto a 280zx?!?!
Hey does anyone know if it'll fit?
|
I've just started researching this but I have no clue as to where to start, so I'll be watching this thread :biggrin:
|
#1: Are you asking about Z31 or Z32 300zx brakes?
#2: Are you asking about front or rear brakes? #3: It doesn't matter... Toyota 4 piston calipers FTW. :D |
My tacoma has 4 piston brakes. I'm going to pull them off right now!! :037:
But really? I'm assuming it's pre 95 ish trucks and 91ish 4 runner calipers? I got something to do at work now!! :biggrin: |
On S30's they are plug & play. S130's require wheel adapters / spacers due to the shorter hub.
https://www.zdriver.com/forums/240z-260z-280z-brakes-wheels-suspension-chassis-126/toyota-brake-upgrade-rims-15426/ I test fitted a set at the pick n pull once... they bolt right up, but the freaking stock wheels hit the caliper. |
My 280Z is definitely going to get 4-piston calipers on the front.
As for Z31 brakes, I believe it can be done, but I think you need the Z31 sturt/shock towers. I remember someone here did it. Can't remember his user name at the moment, but the Z31 struts bolt right in for the front on a 280ZX. I believe the rear required a little bit of modification. Overall this allowed you to run the 5-lug Z31 suspension along with the larger brakes, plus with 5-lug you get more wheel choices. |

BTW nismopick did you mean s12 for the vented rotors that bold straight on ? there are 2 different calipers, the 1979-85 4x4 was a solid one and the 1986-88 4x4 calipers are also marked "S12+8" but were designed to fit the wider, vented rotor. (for the record to people that are unfamiliar with these the s12's are TOYOTA TRUCK 4 RUNNER FRONT BRAKE CALIPERS ) since the zx has vented rotors part numbers for autozone; C8554 Passenger side Vented rotor. C8555 Driver side Vented rotor. Price: $39.99 core: $42.00 Total: $81.99 PER SIDE the 5 lugs https://www.zdriver.com/forums/showt...ank280zx+5+lug |
