Default Does the 300zx brake system work on the 350z?

I'm wondering if the Z32 brake system fits on my Z33? I like the four piston calipers on the older Z32's. It's much cheaper than to go out and get the big brake systems out there. Has anyone attempt to do this?

Don't know why you would want to, the Z32 was notorious for crappy brakes. I remember in the SportZ test drive video they remarked how the stock enthusiast brakes were much better than th Z23s brakes.

The Z32's braking system did not have nearly enough power for the weight of the car, and Z32 owners often found themselves replacing brake hardware with that off of Nissan's Skylines.

Thanks for the info guys. Definitely need to go with the big brake system. Need your opinion, Rotora or Stop Tech? Which one is better.
