300z brake questions?

ok i have a s13 and i want to upgrade my front brakes, but i want to keep it 4 lug and not 5. is there anyway you can do that. i was wondering since the rotor is bigger on the 300z can i just get a rotor for the s13 that is bigger and just put the caliper on that?

(correction)...... "300z can i just get a rotor for the s13 that is bigger and just put the caliper on that?" .......300z, can i get a rotor as big as that to fit on the 4 lug hub and then use the 300z caliper?

No you can't.

The easiest thing to do is if you are using OEM rotors, just get them re-drilled for 4-lug. If you are going aftermarket, I don't think any companies make 300zx rotors in 4-lug because IIRC they were never 4-lug. So you would have to get those re-drilled as well.

I don't think it would be practical to look for other model rotors.

Just get 300zx rotors and re-drill them.
