wanna say Hi to all the cool guy here

I just bought a 97' 240sx. I did not drive any RWD car b4 and I currently have AWD car. can not wait to pick up my car on tuesday.

the problem of the car is the brake is not good. can anyone get me any suggestion to upgrade the brake? or get the JDM calipers from somewhere? any help will be appreciated.

welcome!

i dunno about the S14 aero parts, but i might be able to answer something about the brakes. when u say they're not good, what do u mean? are they in bad shape, need repair, don't meet ur performance needs, or are they lacking in the looks department? clarifying ur question will get u ur answers...

I think the brake is getting very old and was not maintanced well. and also cannot meet my performance needs.

i see. in that case: new rotors (solid is fine for most situations; otherwise crossdrilled/slotted), high quality (read: more resistent to fade) brake pads, steel braided brake lines, silvia/180sx or Z32 calipers should get the job done...
