You do not need to swap over to the five lug most people do it for the wheel selection being much larger than that of the weird 4 lug pattern of a 240 it is not like the B12 4 on 100 or the B11 4 on 112.5 or something like that. Aslo all you need is the rotors (redrilled if not swaping to 5 lug) calipers and backing plate since the 240 is factory 4 wheel disc in the rear the E brake is diff.
I have a question we have all been over the front brakes and know what is what props to myet good info. But I want rear discs and have a ? on that now no B12's came factory with rear disc in the states but they did in europe and japan. Now if I could get my hands on a set of rear Sunny spindles could I then just bolt up B13 SE-R rear discs or say NX2K rears. I have read many threads about custom fabing and this and that and it frankly scares me to think of fabbing a brake system your just a weak weld away from a bad trip into the back side of an SUV. Thanks for any help that you can give also if anyone has the nissan part number for that rear spindle please do share.
I know the rear disc brakes on the euro and the J-spec RZ-1
sunnys are the same as the b-13 SE-R and the NX2000's . thay all had the rear strut brace. please remember that the
us sentra had the E-seris engine and didn't need a better susp. the euro and jspec all have the CA16DE.

so all I need for a clean unmodified rear disc setup is the spindles from a JDM sunny and I can then put NX2000 rears which rear discs are better SER or NX2K or are they the same. Wonder if nissan still makes replacement spindles for this old of a car? Or where I may be able to find some.
well I would go that far yet. I know that the nx, and the ser are one in the same. in the rear discs. Charles, and Kevin swapped info on a braket that will make the drum to disc convertion with ease. I don't know if he did anything with that,I know it's working on his b12 very well. if any thing drop aline to him or fastbrakes. thay took the tech and made the drum to disc for the b13's .. so I hope this helps. I haven't ventured into mine yet. just the frounts for now.

so the sunny rears is still a big unknown that is where I want to go since it is factory and should have saftey and reliability far exceeding anything I could come up with and probably cheaper if it works.
yes. unless someone that has done the swap will spill the beans and hand over all. but it seems to be that way for the most part. I would let you know if I had time to do the rear swap. I had to stop my wife is having are second baby tomarrow. so for a few days anyway... let me call my friend in europe and get the dirt for the both of us

well congrates on the second baby adn yeah please do get ahold of your friend in euro. I would love to get my hands on the spindles or hell even the whole set up if need be tehn just run a SE-R or NX2K master and booster with NX2K abs fronts and all should run like if nissan did it themselves I hope. And cost is not that much of a deterant just a hinderant my dad used to always tell me when we built cars you can scimp on the intake get a genaric cam weld your own exaughst but your brakes are worth every penny.
Seeing as pulsars only have the option for drums in the back, I went with the AD22VF swap out. Here is the difference comparing the pulsar SE(87 with ca16 though) stock and the AD22VF.
I don't have any pics comparing the calipers though.
Alright, it's been a while but I have some more info on the AD18V upgrade. If using B13 brakes, there are actually three different calipers with three different sized pads. Here they are from smallest to largest.
Obviously the way to go would be either of the SR20DE equipped B13s. The pads I have pictured on the first page are actually the GA16DE pads and don't even fit in the SE-R w/ABS calipers.
