Breaks

Rear upgrade would be to use Z31 rear discs, and quite possibly the calipers if they designed for a wider disc.

Z31 rears are about twice as thick because they are vented.

Dosent the z31 have a 5 lug hub? Thou vented discs sound nice...

Yeah, redrill them. Nothing is bolt on for the S12 so you have to adapt things to fit.

Ultimately you could run Z31 rear hubs, wack on some cheapo S13 coilovers and S14 hubs, fit a Z32 or S14 set of brakes and also convert to 5 stud at the same time.

Yeah i know, but all at once is abit costy for me at the moment (thats why i wanted some cheap stock rotors for the moment, too bad they dont exist).
So if im going z32 front, i guess then the better option would be m3 rotors, instead of z32/s14. But then it struck me while going home: i most probably wont fit a r15 wheele on this setup, and thats bad because i would need new rims and them damn expensive r16 winter tiers

. Damn what to do....

What about z32 rear hubs/brakes?

doubtful, look at z31 stuff though, not sure how good they are but might be worthwhile

With regard to the M3 Rotors, I would say that they are pretty darn heavy. You might get better peformance buy getting custom bells and rotors? (Although at a much greater expense

)
