There are also several older threads on this both in the 5th Gen and in the Advanced Handling forum.... start with some of the links in the Brakes section here:

thanks guys.

My neighbor just brought home a 92 Z TT that was hit on the front. Driver hit a tree and the engine almost cut in half. So, i'm thinking of getting the brakes off of it.

Its a good upgrade, but remember that it does not fit under the stock 17s, and if you have aftermarket wheels, make sure you test fit them under whatever wheels you have/are gonna get to ensure you don't install em and then find out you can't put your wheels back on. The fit is dependent on both offset and spoke pattern.
