Questions about z32 brakes

I got my hands on some 96 300zx brakes from my friend that had them on his 240sx. They come with the calipers, rotors and pads. I've been reading alot of threads and i still have some questions that i needed answered.

I wanted to know what exactly doesn't fit from our (4th Gen) brake lines to have it pair to the 300zx brake calipers??? I'm guessing it's a different brake line but my friend swapped the 300zx brakes on his 240sx with his oem brake lines all he needed to do was cut off that dust sheild. Please help me understand better. Thank You.

1. you will need to have the rotors milled down a few mm, since the nissan FWD caliper position differs slightly from the RWD caliper position.

2. yes, you will need conversion lines. Maxima calipers and Z32 calipers do not have the same fitting.
