measure the front rotor diameter. GTR are 11.6inch (296mm). 300zx/ non gtr skyline rotors are smaller. _edit_ rears are the same as 300zx. ---

Step one: remove caliper and rotor Step two: bust out measuring tape Step three: Measure, rotor width, rotor diameter, and the width of the rotor passage on the caliper. ---

Most of those 8 point lugs can be removed with a 3/8 extension. ---
