Rear disc convo, couldn't find the right help!

Hello all,

I searched here and Hybrids,

couldn't find what i was after,

i'm wondering what the simplest rear disc upgrade is on a Z, is there such a thing as a bolt-on swap for something like a skyline or 280zx?

. alternatively, what shoudl i be chasing down for the easiest swap, and what is involved in getting them on and working (including hand-brake)

THanks in advance! Charles

The question really deals with money and how much you want to spend.

I am doing the late maxima brackets with 240sx calipers and 1984 300ZX rotors. The late 280 ZX calipers will also work with these brackets, but there is a lot of negative comments floating around as to there durability.

Several companies including Ross Corrigan/Modern Motorsports, Motorsports Auto and fonebooth. com all have versions of this. They use a fabricated bracket (Aluminum) and either the 240sx or 280ZX calipers. The Maxima brackets (Cast Steel) are hard to find and harder to remove.

Check the "Z Car Homepage". Home of the Internet Z club, there are a couple of tech articles. The Hybrid Z search engine is down at the present due to band width issue with the host. Soon to be rectified.

Good luck.
