z32 calipers on stock 240 rotors fit?

Will z32 calipers fit and work on stock s13 4 lug rotors? Reason I ask is because my stock calipers are no good anymore and I would rather upgrade my calipers but dont want to do the whole z32 brake conversion with 5 lug.

Also wondering if stock s14 calipers will fit on the s13 or are they the same?

sheesh no no no,

Z32 will not fit stock s chassis rotors EVER.

Reason you asked is because you want to mod your car the cheapest way.

Okay shall we refresh.

Z32 fits, Z32,R32 (v spec)R33 GTS-T, S14,S15 K's JDM model.

S13 , S14 ZENKI is the same thing.

S14 Kouki is bigger than S13 and S14 Zenki. US

If you want bigger brakes, you have to swap over the whole rotor and calipers assembly.

You don't have to do a five-lug swap to do a Z32 brake conversion...just have the Z32 rotors drilled for a four lug setup, or get the brembo blanks that are already drilled. Don't the front Z32 rotors bolt right on if you do that?

The stock z32 calipers will fit on the stock s13 rotors ,but you will have uneven pad wear. Also the stock s13 brake lines will not work on the z32 calipers you will need to get conversion brake lines.

Goddamit, stop cheaping out on brakes. Brakes are one of the most vital parts of your car. WTF is the point of having bigger calipers if your rotors are up to par with it. that's just retarded. the reason for getting bigger calipers is not only for better clamping force, but it's for runner bigger and wider rotors for heat dissapations. Plus, what good are bigger calipers if they cant clamp down completely on rotors? You're better off just running the stock set up with better rotors and pads.

Don't cheap out on brakes!
