#1 , you CANT use the REAR

#2 , there is nothing JDM about z32 calipers

#3 , you will need the brackets , which I may have a set left for them to run 13inch rotors

because the OEM 6th gen rotors are 12.6

you will need brackets to make them work.

even with the cobra brackets you can still run the 12.6 rotors, but you wouldnt be using the full face of the pad.

12.6 - 13inch rotors, so .4 of the pad you arent using.

not really, finding a used set of z32 calipers ranges from $100-$250 for the pair.

Brackets are $65 , decent HAWKs pads are about $50

using your 12.6 rotors, your still under $500
