iirc, the 3000GT VR4 4 piston calipers are identical to the 300zx calipers except for the name on the outside (Mitsu instead of Nissan, both made by Nissin, iirc again)
The 300zx caliper is made by Sumitomo (cast right into it, just below the Nissan logo) and the reason the calipers don't clear the wheels is because I'm running 350Z Brembo rotors, so the caliper is spaced farther out than it would be if I had the 300xz rotors. There is a little ridge in the barrel of the 3/S wheels that hits the caliper, so the backspacing isn't the issue.
