I have searched ruthlessly for the past 2 hours and still have not come up with a solid answer. know this a will broadcasted subject but i'm still a little confused. I have a set of r33 front hubs from a friends front clip (the front clip is still intact, so the whole front suspension is there). I am currently looking to go 5 lug on my 91 s13. I have heard that you can buy the peak proformance 5 lugs hubs for the front and rear but you'll need to either redrill the stock 4 lug to make it 5 lug or buy a set of 5 lug rotors.

So my questions are; Will the r33 front 5 lug hubs work with my suspension, if not what mods will need to be done to make them work? Where can i get my 4 lug rotors redrilled to 5 lug? If I buy the peak performance rear hubs, is there any other mods necessary, other then just redrilling the rotors to fit 5 lug?

for the front, that's a no. you'll need conversion hubs for that.

call around for the redrilling to 5 lug. it's getting more difficult to find shops that'll be willing to do it because of liability issues.

most folks buy the z32 rear hubs since it's a bolt on. Buy the z32 hubs and get the conversion hubs for the front to make it a bolt on affair sans the redrilling of the rotors.
