Hey everyone, I'm looking to upgrade my rotors, I'm thinking of getting the slotted brembo rotors. Are they any good? Anyone using them, also what would be good calipers to get for a decent price? I've heard that I can use the z32 calipers, is that right? I should get rotors for a z32 also if I did it, correct? Also what kind if price range should all that be? Any info on this subject would be great, thanks guys

using z32 rotors and calipers is not as simple as just taking your old ones off and bolting new ones on.

z32 calipers use a different type of brake line fitting, so you need to get conversion brake lines to use them. also the position of the caliper on the 4th gen steering knuckle necessitates machining off about 1/4" of the rotor's diameter. lastly, z32 calipers are so much wider than stock calipers that many types of wheels will not bolt on the car without the use of spacers which may necessitate longer lug studs, etc.

not to mention, there are 3 different z32 calipers to choose from.

there are easier "upgrades" that don't have quite the involvement level of going to z32 stuff

I'm going with the z32 30mm irons ( got them for 60 bucks)
With the s13/14 12.75 350z brembo rotor brackets. I don't think anyone where has done this and seeing that the s14 can take our rotors and calipers with no problem this shouldn't be an issue. But give me a few days when I get the parts in and I'll let you know for sure.
