those specs are wrong.

its 280mm x 22mm on the front.

this thread is pointless - if you do a search you'll find many threads with the same info in it.

5 pages of the same info :? :?

Veecee there must have been sx's with different disc sizes.. I measured my discs and they are also that spec.. 257x22 frnt and 266x9 rear. It's a 1991 S13.

As far as i know all the models sold here by nissan were the euro ones, with the 4 port heads and 280mm discs

The grey imports one like trances which the speedo is in miles and 8port head has the 257mm disc.

not its true - there were models with smaller discs, usually the auto or non turbo models...

but they might be grey imports cos 95% of the SX's in SA are the euro spec.

but the specs that 86 posted wont match the vast majority of SX's in this country.
