Looking for some Z32 calipers for my S13. I'm going to be rebuilding them before I put them on, so the condition doesn't really matter. Cash in hand!

wow thanks Evan, i didn't even think to call JDM.

I'm going to pick up calipers, rotors and pads for 2 bills flat tomorrow.

I just hope they are 30mm and not 26mm

The 26 and 32 aluminum look the same, the only difference is the 26mm is dirty and the 32 is clean

Not a clue, i would say just get the stuff and install. Hopefully they arent 26mm, and if they ARE, you trade your 92 300zx TT rotors for 1990 300zx NA rotors, same bolt pattern, just a bit skinnier.

I am by NO means a Nissan guy...I just noticed in the pictures of the Aluminum Calipers...

On the right side piston...above it a "1" on the 26mm and a "2" on the 30mm....I don't know if that is an identifying mark...but maybe something that you can go on??:dunno:

haha good eye man, i didnt even see that. It could be, ill have to look at my set on my car. I know it wont be measurements, as 1" is roughly 25mm, and 2" is 51mm.....but it could be a casting number or something, a different caliper would be a different mold....
