hey son i have a 1992 Super Hicas green with abs and ive got alota questions to ask…

i need some input on how to do 300zx brake swap…wondering what kind of calipers can be used… i heard something about r32 brakes…ive seen the diy but still dont quite get it… i need someone to layout the parts i need and how to do it

following the brake swap i will be converting to 5 lug using ichiba hubs…i was wondering if i need new spindles and what else i might need…

i also heard theres a bad feeling of brakes if u go 300zx

thats all im accomplashing as of now. lets see some feedback

you will need

300zx calipers, 300zx pads and rotors. also to help the feel of 300zx brakes get ss brake lines. for the ichiba hubs its just a bolt on, un bolt your stock 4 lug hubs and put the 5 lug on. you do not need to change the spindles. its very easy

here for the 5 lug: [http://forums.beyond.ca/showthread/t-104377.html](http://forums.beyond.ca/showthread/t-104377.html)

change to 5-lug all around so u can get rotors for your brak eupgrade, go with 300zx calipers so u can find parts for them easier, all u need to do is unbolt old calipers and put new ones on and get conversion lines to the calipers, also if you change the rears too u will need to change your e-brake, in terms of feel some people dont mind with stock brake master others change to a 300zx brake master and that improves feel, its not hard to do at all, ones days worth fo work to do it all

If you wanna help the noob and you’re well aware that this has been covered, you’ll PM the information or links that you have found to him/her directly. Saves clutter, helps the noob, and hopefully you can show him/her how to use the search.

Give a man a fish, feed him for one day. Teach him how to fish, he’ll feed himself forever.
