Just went to buy my new rotors for the Toyota S12W Calipers and the 240SX rear calipers on my '78 280Z.

The parts man asked whether it was US or Canadian? What is the difference between Canadian and US Rotors.

The 1984 US were four lugs, were the Canadian five Lugs? Is this the difference?

A little help please. Thanks in advance.

canadian 300zx has 9"27/32 dia 4 lug rotors. u.s 300zx has 10"51/64 dia 4 lug rotors . # 3243 aimco for the u.s. #31214 for the canadian.

Paul,

I assume the dimensions you gave were for the front ventilated rotors, what about the rears?

It doesn't seem like to much to ask to have this kind of data in the parts books, but......

Thanks,

the rear canadian rotors are smaller 10"11/64 #3152 aimco

u.s. rears 11"27/64 # 3256 aimco. hope that helps. we must have smaller inches here like you have smaller gallons.

Ross has many different options for rotors and pads. He is very, very helpful. So is his site, lots of good information there.

He's in Canada so I think he'll have a good idea about those swaps.:devious:

Hey ecp48, also here in the states there is Dave at www.ariaonazcar.com

He also makes trick brake upgrade kits. Real trick looking stuff.

As well as engine performance pieces. Suspension.:devious:

Thanks Guys,

Appreciate the help.

All the strings and the various sites gave dimensions, just the local parts houses said "canadian or US" without dimensions.

Thanks again.
