S13 brakes all the same? - Click HERE for Original Thread

mx73someday
Anyone know off the top of their head if 89 Silvia brake pads are the same as 89 240SX brake pads? Did all 240SX's have rotors in the back?

Yes they should be all the same, and they always had discs all around.

89 Silvia/RS13 brakes are the smallest of the bunch. Check Australian and American sites for full info. HS13 and MS13 are the same with ABS equipped cars having larger and thicker front disks. PS13 had bigger rotors than RS13.

And, not in English for those people that don't know about those certains types of silvia's/180sx's...

What I'm getting out of your question is that you are looking to put Silvia brake pads on your 240sx?? If so, I don't see ANY difference at all in doing that, nor upgrading to slightly larger silvia rotors. From the info that Jared gave, I'm taking it that the actual Calipers of all of the S13 body styles are the same size, hence, same brake pads, hence, no need to buy them.

Hope that helps, IF I got the info right.

When the rotor is thicker the caliper is different as well. Lots of info, on Freshalloy. I would use Altima rotors/maxima calipers if I was on a budget and wanted Nissan parts. 15" wheels + are a must though

Off topic, but what model is the MS13?

On topic 91-94 240SX. M is KA24DE.
Aaron, do you still have that rotor I lent you? If this guy wants to compare brakes. I have both sets of S13 brakes in my garage looking for a good home.

Alright....

If one needs to replace rear brake pads on their Silvia K's (88/89) variation, then they're the same brake pads that we would find on our local 240SX's? I'm pretty sure that's what he means...

AFAIK rear brakes are the same on all S13
