yup, redrilling them works perfect..
use your old rotor , bolt it through 1 of the holes to the new rotor, and voila
you know exactly where to drill the other three..

I would probably take it to a mag repair shop to do. In case drilling it at the wrong speed heats/weakens the metal or in case the pcd isn't quite 110% accurate. But I guess DIY could work.
RBSX where can you get these rotors? I need some too please. Can you get rears also?

DIY should work perfectly, unless you're totally useless with a drill and a ratchet, and lining holes up!!!
and as for docs question - where can you get and how much yo??? i also have a set of 300zx calipers and i'm short a set of 280mm/30mm rotors!!!
