to do the brake conversion i believe you need the 5 lug.. but if u wanna know about the 5 lug conversion SCC nov 2002 issue should help ( look under project silvia) go to www.sportcompactcarweb.com ... or you could just get a 5 lug adapter but for the brakes i think you need the whole conversion.

It's not all that hard, but it's kinda expensive. Also, I would reccomend putting the Z's aluminum upright in place of the iron 240 one. Save you some weight, and its pretty cool. You just have to make sure that you get a fork style lower shock mount.

if you're gonna do both of these you may as well just get 300ZX hubs with the brakes instead of trying in vain to find S14 SE hubs.
