very unlikely to work, s12 discs sit inboard of the hub. I think z31 discs are 296mm (have to check though) if they are r33 gts calipers would be ideal to go with them. now stop giving me ideas

Danny... GET CHECKING!!! (oh and p.s. what size wheel minimum would you need to fit 296mm into? [obviously we are not sure about caliper size as of yet]).

Don't know about the pads. Anyone else know?

You can just have the discs drilled to attach to the hub from the rear. Someone with a datsun with s12 legs tried it with Z32 discs and the caliper was correctly spaced as well.

let us know how you go on, i have the s14 calipers, but with grooved s12 discs, i'd be interested in getting some bigger fronts on there and what about the rears, is there anything we can do to improve those ?

Be worth trying to get the disc redrilled so it can be bolted to the rear of the hub before trying to make spacers

Yeah but it will be to the PCD of the inner hub bolts which arent the same as the PCD of the wheels me thinks. But if the offset this way isn't an issue then for this method its a damn handy upgrade
