Worlds first aftermarket 296mm discs for S12
 
The discs and caliper brackets in this kit will fit the S12 strut. This is a world first, so now you can move on from the gay s12 brakes:

will those disc's fit with the z32 calipers ?

They're designed for Z32/R33 calipers by looks of things. I only came across them by chance where some people use R31 legs as a mod on early Datsuns

Yeah but they won't fit on UK hubs will they? Can't remember if its the disc or the caliper that is the issue.

I still say, for best options, S13 coilovers and hubs are the best way in terms of suspension and available brake upgrades

They won't fit the caliper spacing on the UK cars, I think the hub maybe different aswell. If I had to do it again I'd go with a S13 coilover and big brake swap.

'try using decent brake pads,discs and brake fluid before you label s12 brakes as crap and go larger'.Try mintex pads or something and a complete system bleed. Halfords/ferodo/apex/motor factor pads just arnt upto the job. Ive found the s12 brakes to be twice as good as the s14 brake conversion when the s12 brakes have decent brand pads and the s14 ones did not

But in the UK you guys have a 11" front disk we have only have 10" so you have more braking power stock.
