If you had universal lug wheels it could be done cheaper. I pressed the hub out of mine and redrilled it to 4x100. If i didnt do that it would be around $70 cheaper. Just start pieceing it together. If you looking through salvage yards and the internet, you might be able to find the parts cheaper.
bre92ser i will have to check on that. They still needed the lug pattern changed, but didnt need any taken off the diameter.

yeah i figured they would still need to br drilled, but i get volvo parts cheap, as the nissan dealer i work for is also a volvo dealer, so i figure i'll go that route, and not have to machine the rotor.

Sorry they were the same diameter as the maxima rotors they just didnt need as thick of a spacer for the caliper. You may be able to cross referance rotors on brembos web site and find some that match up better. they were 280mm and i turned mine to a hair under 276mm

which volvo did you get your rotor from?

also looking through brembo.... audi rotor work? from a 1991-1992 audi 90 quattro. 276x25mm. but i don't know what the center hole diameter. figured it wouldn't need to be milled 4mm.

My rotor came from a 2001 maxima. It had the right center bore. I did have to take 4mm off the diameter and redrill the lug pattern to 4x100. It required a 4.5mm shim behind the caliper also. If you search enough you may be able to find a rotor with 4.5mm of extra offset and the shim wouldnt be required.
My steering knuckle/hub was off a 1.8l model car, im not sure which one that is. Im guessing its a base model. All i know is that it worked.

Is there a way to fit the z32 calipers on the b13 knuckles and rotors?

Nope there isnt any way to bolt them up. If you look through the thread there are pics showing why they wont work on the b13 steering knuckles.

^Dang lol.

The angle of the camra could have caused it to look misaligned.


^So we are calling the knuckle and the hub the same thing in this thread right? I'm seeing it called both ways. Just like secondary/flex pipe?

^I saw that. I'm looking to upgrade my rears with Maxima's. I saw where a guy ahd a 1999 set on his B14. I want to do this to my B13. What is the latest year I can use? I want the best as well. Also, would the item list be a lot different if it was done on a B13 SE-R or a B13 XE?
