when doin the conversion to 5 lug on an s13 (rear ) what brake rotor do you use for this ? Im thinking an s14 5lug rotor would fit but before I go and buy one I want to be sure. thanks farmer ---

Yes you use a 5 bolt S14 Rotor… All Rear Rotors (S13/S14) are 258x9mm (the differences come down to whether the vehicle has ABS or not and whether its 4 or 5 bolt) ---

If you have ever looked under the hood @ an ABS equipped 240 and look at the ABS unit itself, you notice that the front & REAR lines run from the MC then into the ABS unit and then from it, it goes to the front and rear brakes… If a 240 only had ABS in the front, then the rear lines would not also be feed into the ABS unit.
