PS13 rotors are 11 inch. I've ran them hard through patterson road, as well as primus repeatedly, and other sudden 120-45 stops (hint oh shit a cop!)

I've never faded them with my setup. (150whp 160tq KA24DE)
I run the stainless lines all around, super blue brake fluid (www.splparts.com), ceramic brake pads, power slot slotted rotors (thank you regina!) and metal master pads in the back with stock rotors. I also have a new brake master cylinder(HS13).

Regina and I both have them on our cars, and we love the feel.
Epstein, you've driven my wolverine car with it's brake setup, what did you think vs your z32 brakes ?

The PS13 brakes feel a lot better than the Z32s. I think the single bigger piston on the PS13 brakes is a better match for the stock 240sx master cylinder. I didn't get a chance to brake from 120 in Mattback's car, but doing that in my brother's Z32 brake equipped car was like throwing a boat anchor out the window. It was a lot more violent than I was expecting. My brother's setup is OEM style rotors, SS lines, and Metal Master pads.

Here is a comparison that I did between stock brakes, PS13 brakes and Z32 brakes. NOTE: The 300zx rotor in the comparison turned out to be something different. The real Z32 rotors (even the 26mm) were noticibly thicker!

Any idea on what a Set of PS13 brakes cost? and I'd have to find them on a clip or something eh?

Mattback has a list of crossreference parts. Maybe you could piece it together from US parts. Seems like a lot of the parts come from old Maximas....
