Do you want to use the 300ZX size rotors(11") that you mill down 4mm, or the BBK that Matt93SE is selling that uses the '04 Max rotor(12.6"). If the last one, here's the link.

My white 5th Gen was the test mule for development of this kit, and the one that uses the stock caliper.

Matt makes a second BBK that uses the same 12.6" rotor, but with the stock 2000/2001 front caliper that fits behind the 5th Gen 17" wheels. Here's the link.

Yep, fitted on my car again.

If you buy Matt's kit, no milling of rotors needed. The entire kit is bolt on. No grinding, milling, rubbing, spacers, etc. needed. But realize you must have the kit which includes the bracket and bolts that move the caliper out from the hub because of the larger rotors. Look on the link I posted above, last page for the link to his web site and pictures. You'll see the mounting bracket.

i checked the specs on the 5th gen rotors diameter and the 300z rotors and they are both 280mm or 11.02 inchs so why do the have to be milled at all? please help me understand.
