Brakes are probably the most important active safety device on any car, and the Nissan 240SX brakes are no exception. This sporty vehicle, built from 1989 to 1998, was equipped with four wheel disk brakes, and later models came with ABS. The 240SX was a relatively light and nimble car, and it remains popular with tuners and amateur mechanics.

There are a variety of aftermarket parts available for the 240SX, and among these are numerous brake upgrades. Early models of this car were regarded as somewhat underpowered, so a popular change is to replace the engine.

Of course, for the safety conscious, higher speeds mean that you need better brakes. Upgrades to the Nissan 240SX brakes include vented or slotted rotors, different materials for the brake pads, replacement of the rubber brake hoses with stainless steel braided lines, and ultimately, larger, more powerful calipers. Replacement calipers will prove to everyone that you are the richest guy on the block! Besides performance replacements, there are other designs of brake components that are available for those less interested in speed and more interested in economy. While we recommend treating “lifetime” brakes with a grain of salt, there are brake pads and disks available that will last many tens of thousands of miles. These budget parts will provide adequate stopping power, but will certainly not stand up to performance parts. Before making any changes to you brakes, consider your needs and budget carefully, but don’t skimp where safety is concerned. We always recommend buying the best brakes you can afford.
