I think Nismopick said the 280ZX spindles are shorter or something and require modification for the 4-piston calipers. I put the 4-piston calipers on my 76' 280Z with no issues. The only thing that had to be changed was the backing plate around the rotor had to be trimmed to get the caliper to fit. Cutoff wheel solved that real quick.

Think about it snw, would someone really give away a set of 4 piston toyota calipers for free? That would be the whole common sense deal I'm talking about.

OMG MY FIRST EVER POST IN POST ***** (hehe, i finally gave in ). Yeah, I kinda noticed the dead thing too. At least it's nice to see some regular faces....errrr s/n's?.....again. It's been really annoying because I've been so busy between school, work, and tracking down parts....which, btw, are like nonexistent down here . There has to be like this huge anti-datsun bubble over the area over here because there aren't even parts in the junkyards . Anyhoo, I hope everyone is doing great

wellllllll i START school the 11th but i dont go anywhere. my college is like a 10 min drive from my house. nice and close and no not a community college just lucky my 4 year of second choice is one town over. I might graduate this may but i think ima go one more semester and get CTI certified for ATC so i can pull down BANK and its a govt job so i can get into the FAA if i want and have a kick *** pension. plus after 2 years you get a 100k salary or better. so that be pretty sweet. and there is a air traffic controller shortage, specially in the chicago area/other congested airspace areas where there is lots of flights.

My Mom was an ATC in the Airforce for about 5 years, and my Uncle was the ATC at our local airport for about 3 years then moved to a larger airport. I thought of following the same career path,

And the easiest way to go for that is the Airforce, cause its faster, its gauranteed, plus you're certified by the first company on everyones list. But working directly for the government is the last thing i'd want to do right now, as far as military goes. Plus you're safe and sound all up in your little tower. Just don't let any crazed Colonels come into your airport...
