In this episode we begin upgrading the Z with big brakes from a Z32! We paint and reseal them to mak them look like new!
These specific brakes are 30mm aluminum calipers.
Note that I did end up having to clearance the calipers just a tiny bit to avoid interfering with the stock wheels. A very thin wheel spacer would work as well.

You can't swap out the stock calipers for z32 calipers because they use different types of hand brakes. I'm keeping stock z31 rear calipers for the time being

The rear calipers are pretty much the same process. You can buy the rebuild kits on rockauto and then just do a similar tear down and cleaning process.

Hey! Great Video! How can you add a parking brake with this setup? I recently purchased a 240z with the exact same setup as you but is missing parking brake. I'd like to add it. Thanks for your input!

Parking brakes would be on the rear wheels so it depends on what hub you're running on the rears. For a z31, if you put on z32 rears, you would need to weld a second caliper on for the hand brake.

By conversion lines u mean the 240 s14 ect lines that they make to swap to z32 calipers ?
@TheZGarage
@TheZGarage 3 года назад
I believe those would also work, but I was referring to z31 to z32 conversion lines which are stainless steel braided lines if I remember correctly.

@@TheZGarage the z32 con are they the same fitting on the side going to the reservoir by the I mean like do they just fit like the stock lines going from the caliper to the other lines or does the upgrade come with some conversion type line that has the fittings for the caliper and then conversion side for the line going towards the car and if they do where could I get some ?

What is the torque spec for the bolts holding the two halves together?
@TheZGarage
@TheZGarage 3 года назад
I haven't found any info for that but given that the caliper is aluminum and the bolt is steel, nothing crazy or it'll strip the caliper threads. I'd say give it a good snug by hand and if you're really worried, put some thread locker on it.

I've thought about it but it's different for different years of ecu and I only have an 86 so I wouldn't be able to show how to do it on each ecu. I might do a quick tip video for 86 models though

Any z32 will work but the turbos have larger calipers that are also aluminum instead of iron

Slip on adapter for what?
@jonathanmontoya2136
@jonathanmontoya2136 4 года назад
Instead of using 87-89turbo hubs
@TheZGarage
@TheZGarage 4 года назад
The concept is that later style hubs use slip on brake rotors and can thus use the z32 rotor which is wider than the z31. You can use z32 brakes on a z31 but because it has a smaller rotor, the pad will overhang the rotor slightly.
