Well why stick on stock size 240sx brakes if you just want the cross-drilled/slotted rotors. If you want those....go a buy them since there are companies that make them for our cars....or at least the appropriate size.

Yup....though I'm weary of the clearance of the spokes on the 18's. Remember when you pointed out how the spokes curve in torwards the outer ring of the rim?

"2.Front rotor upgrade, being that the knuckle assy is
the same, down to the hub bearing and such, I don't
see any problem using the S13 (240sx) slotted front
rotors on our Maximas."

That's taken DIRECTLY out of the stickies. Please take time out to read them. If you cannot find the answer to your question there, feel free to post. But there's a TON of stuff there, check it out.

If your car doesn't have ABS, don't get the ABS rotor. And just cuz they look cool, doesn't mean they're more functional. Ferrari's F1 cars don't use cross-drilled or slotted rotors. Cross-drilled rotors can warp more readily because they can't hold as much heat.
