4lug to a 5lug?

[ELITEBB127108]

hey guys...i know someone already asked this question but does anyone know how/ where i can get my 4 lug converted into the 5 lug? 91 fastback that is....thanks for the help

Aftermarket front hubs and S14/z32 rear hubs is the easiest way. Bolts right on

Okay, My question...I have a 89 4 lug, I also have access to 300zx hubs and everything else. I am not interested in the brake upgrade. Once again...will the HUBS only bolt up to the rear, and will the front hubs bolt up? I also have access to a S14 suspension with control arms and spindles, but it is 4 lug, so it may be worthless. But anyway after scouring my way around posts w/ no answers I ask "Do I have enough to make this work?" Thx, Justin

you could use the rear z32 hubs and 95 up 5 bolt SE rotors with your stock calipers on the rear. Then use Gto or Attain front 5 lug conversion hubs with the stock caliper and SE 5 lugs rotors. This is to the best of my knowledge. I did the brake upgrade and it wasn't near this easy. I'm not complaining about though it was worth it. Best part about your swap is you wont have to bleed the brakes because you'll never disconnect anything. Have fun. Write me and tell me how it goes.

tougefactory.com has the front hubs on back order through may though.

For the front you could also use the s14 front spindles with oem s14 SE hubs (they are about $120 apiece though new).You need to enlarge the strut bolt hole as the s14 spindles holes are larger, no big deal though. With this setup you need to use s14 lower balljoints( I recommend Moog), It isn't safe otherwise. I thought I would tell you about this since you already have access to s14 parts. The aftermarket hubs are more expensive and are usually on backorder. If you go to junkyards on regular basis you might have some luck locating these parts, but good luck. I have come across only one of these cars, and the hubs were already gone. Although the 5lug SE wheels were still there. At the same yard I got the whole 300zx subframe with lsd and the front spindles 4 SE wheels with tires, 2 300z wheels(for drag tires as they are wider) and 2 newer ls integra wheels. All of this for under $300. Not to shabby, But I know this guy, he really hooks me and a Honda buddy up. Write if you have any questions.
