300zx z32 brake upgrade and 5 lug hubs on S13 question

[Kansei240sx]

Alright guys, i've done some searching and i have found nothing but what i need.. I've seen people doing the Z32 brake upgrade and the rear i dont have a problem with.... ITS THE FRONT....

So i have a set of 300zx twin turbo brakes and 5 lug hubs for the entire car.

From what i've read, the Z32's have 32mm front hub bolts and the S13;s have 30mm front hub bolts.

Now, not thinking this all the way through till i got down to it.

It took of my S13 4 lug hubs, and brakes and rotors and all that... and just to test fit i took my 5 lug z32 hub and stuck it on the front hub bolt, but noticed that the bolt was way to short....

Do i need to like...... take the bearing or something out of the back of the hub? or do i need to find a Z32 front hub bolt altogether, im a bit lost on the fronts here and i need a quick answer because its bugging me.

I did a lot of research and people said the front z32 hub doesn't fit the s13 at all. I think u might need the s14 hub and spindle. I run into the same problem like u too now, but I'm think of buy a new ichiban front 5 lug hub. good luck

why are you trying to put a z32 front hub on the front? They don't work. If you're using an s14 hub on the s13, you'll need the spindle, lca, and a drill bit. Buy the conversion hubs, it's alot less headache.

+1 for the above poster. wtf are you talking about? z32 front hubs won't work on the s13. You need either s14 hubs with s14 spindles and s14 lower control arms or aftermarket s13 5 lug hubs like ichiba/s5/gto/attain. If you use the s14 parts you'll need to drill out the shock holes or get spacer sleeves from http://www.5lugsleeves.com

by the way, I have a short question. will the j30 upright/hub/ebake bolt into the rear s13? because currently I have the j30 upright/hub/ebake and z32 upright/hub/ebrake in my garage. any suggest which I would I use to get my e brake working? thanks
