Big brake conversion for S13??

[bburns89]

Okay. I've looked everywhere I know to look and haven't found a rear big brake kit for the S13. I'm going 5 lug and want a beast-mode braking setup. I'd like to go with the Stoptech 13" rotor with 4 piston caliper for the front but like I said, I can't find a big brake kit for the rear. :(

I found this:

So I know rear big brakes from Stoptech exist.

Please help!! Thanks.

I've seen that before too. You could try contacting them about what they are using on the back. I'd check this site out before making my decision:

They have two kits for the front & one for the back. Parking brakes (not for drifting use) are separate. You can get either 4 or 5-lug billet aluminum rotor hats, Wilwood quality, long & useful life on the street, light weight, uses stock S13 or S14 master cylinder. Only downside is cost, but hey, if you were going to drop the coin on the Stoptech system, this should be fine.

Pop 300zx/j30 rear brakes on. Or do the 11.5in altima rear brakes. All you need is the rotor and the caliper bracket from a z31.



Damn it, I wish I didnt know stupid useless shit like this.

I have J30 fronts & the Altima rears with Z31 brackets and stock calipers. Much cheaper than any aftermarket big brake setup, but if you want a true big brake setup that is balanced front to rear (and doesn't need a MBC swap), the one I linked to is dead on with the 6-piston front & 4 piston rear.

Alright awesome. Thank you guys a lot for the help. :)

What are you doing to do that you need THAT much brakes?

Also will you have the tires to use all of that brake?

Go ahead and waste money on the StopTech rears and I bet my car will still out brake yours. :)

Z32 rears are more than sufficient.

I went with the Altima rears and Q45 fronts, much cheaper! The Arizona ones look very good for the price too!

[bburns89]

I'm building an S13 hatch with an LS swap. What modification is required for the Z32 brakes? How can I keep the e-brake functional as well? It'll have 18"x10" wheels on it.

[AFSil80]

You'll need the following:

Z32 brake calipers
Z32 e-brake assemblies
Z32 rotors

And these cables:

I'm sorry for sounding dumb but what does the Z33 e-brake assembly consist of?

Scroll down K-sport has front and rear brake setups (sold separately) from 12" to 16".

ksports are more for looks than performance. I'd suggest Z1's Akebono 370z setup with floating rotors and good pads way over any ksport set you can find. Actually I'd recommend a full Z32 setup with good rotors and pads over ksports too.

I mean as far as parts I need to buy and where can I get them for the Z32 rear brake assembly w/ functioning e-brake. Already got the fronts on. :)
