Is it true that BMW E36 M3 brake discs fit the 300zx?

Just found on Ebay someone selling brackets to alow you to fit 315mm BMW E36 M3 brake discs to the 300zx.

 

Has anyone done this? Is it worth it?

 

Cheers,

 

Chris.

    No. the Disc PCD and centre bore is wrong, so wont fit the hub.

    The bloke is right in a way but it is only half of the kit lol!!!

     

    You can use the M3 discs but you need a metal insert for the center bore and the pcd re-drilled .

     

    This is the complete kit and it works a treat. i had it fitted for a while and it made a huge differance. This kit does use the M3 315mm discs :)

    Thanks, so when your discs need replacing, you would have to re-drill a set of BMW discs?

    You can do. Or you can buy discs straight from them if need be already pre drilled. there at a price of the normal ones so all is good. :thumbup:
