J30/240

[BruceJ30]

Alright, so I just picked up a 90 s13 from Beaufort. I have a J30 already and i know that you can upgrade the breaks on the 240 with the J30's. But what i was wondering is, can i take the 5 lug hubs off the J30 and put them directly onto the 240 so i can have five lug on the 240?

No, it is not a direct bolt on.The brakes are though..

[BruceJ30]

Yeah, i'm doing the breaks soon.But what would i have to do to get the hubs on also?

People were saying they did it. I'm just trying to figure out how.Cause my rims are 5 lug and on the j right now, but i'd rather them onthe s13.

you can use the j30 hubs, you just have to put s13 wheel bearings pressed in. You will have a slight problem though. If you press in s13 bearings, you will find out that the bearing is longer than the J30 bearing. This means that you wont be able to put the snap ring on. They say its dangerous because the bearing will move but (disclaimer: do this at your own risk) I have had my front bearings like this for a year now. I have not tracked my car or do any crazy stuff.

BTW this is just the front hubs. I know that the rears work too but I dont know if you will have the same issues

How about putting this in the right forum? Why ask about breaks...brakes!!! in an engine forum?

ya... hubs work..rears bolt up.front you just cut snew retainer clip groove on it with a lathe. and press in s13 bearings.
