I just did the z32 30MM brakes on a customers car and all I needed was a couple MMs i think around 3-4MMs.

Hope this helps

you will need 2 to 3 mm spacer to clear.  
5 mm spacer was perfect.  
however certain 7 spokes clear for some odds reasons.

from what i have read some where. some of the 91-94 had a lip on the back of the 7 spokes and some did not. i read it on some big ass write up on 300zx brakes. also if anyone whats to know 180sx brakes are the same as a nissan altima 92 i believe.
