Honestly kesean. If your going to want better rims after theses(which im sure you will someday) you might as well do the 5lug swap now. Trust me, there are good deals out there. So far in my 300zx brakes i have:

240-300zx lines- $70 shipped from Vivid RacingHawk HPS Pads- $92 shipped from TireRackZ32 Brake Calipers- $125 shipped from CA

The list will be more as i am going to be rebuilding the brakes and also painting them. I'll put up a total cost and pics of everything when im done.

I may look into rps13srsc's wheels.the 5lugs and swap over my hubs...

or. ill go A-Tech competitions or A-Tech Weapons.or even Elite wheels.

my choice will come down to basically the availability of the wheels when it comes time to buy. since i like all 3.

and sizes are hella nice. 17x9 +17s!!! in the competitions.
hey man if ur intrested ill sell them to you for 500 without the tires

with a +35offset.id have to run spacers.

thats something i was trying to get away from.

ha.. me and my wishy washy ideas

Patrick and Scs13 has good points.if i wanna ever get my dream set of wheels.. AME'S!!!!.. i have to go 5lug.

so.. me and my wisshywashy ideas are leaning more towards buying tires for my bald *** 15s and going along with the 5speed swap.

i have right around 500currntly.. and i should be able to get it done with maybe 200 more.

i need to make up my mind.having money sucks. when you cant decide how to spend it.sad part is i rearly have money!!!

lol i remember the day we picked up those brakes... I had to haul em around town all day in the back of my mom's car, and the original owner didn't even use em...

He bought brakes he was never gonna use for a car he was never gonna get... what a waste

Do not use the dampener box. Bypass it with SS line, it is a waste of space.

The swap is not as hard as one would think... I think I paid $75 for the clutch pedal, hard line, (bleeder box - which is now sitting in the spare part pile in the garage), I did the Advance/AutoZone special for the clutch master ($19) and re-used the clutch slave in my swap. I cut the brake pedal (lotsa patience - the pedal has some extra bracing you have to cut through). I got the Nismo SS clutch line and rebent the hardline to make it work (borrowed a brake line bender from AutoZone) and SLOWLY bent it a little at a time until it was right. I think the hardest part was cutting the hole in the firewall (hard position for me to work in). Make sure you keep the little green box - you need it to be able to get the key out of ignition later. I actually found a spot to bolt mine behind the the plastic panel. Any performance type clutch will mean the bleeder has to go - real pain trying to use it and makes clutch spongy. Good luck with the swap. Mine was an S13 so I know you have a few small differences, but good luck.

clean trade.

this is how i got off better..and Chris(seller) knows it.. he was just tryin to help me out.

My car-Power steering leaking out of steering rack-engine burning massive amounts of oil-4 lug-automatic-torn the fvcck up subframe bushings....to fix all of that would have coasted me over 2000 bucks!!!..

so.. clean trade on this car. (no more pics until i get her running)+ a set of sportmax 006's in Brand new tires.+ Free labor for Motor and transmission install

my new car-SE-5speed-VLSD-Clean interior-better off than my red s14

cons-needs rear bumper-needs repaint.

**IM A BODY MAN!!!!!***i can do all work my self.. so thats no obstacle.

so to add to this really long post!

The motor I'm getting..(should seal the deal tomorrow) had 80k on itand the transmission im getting is in good shape.

im more excited about the 80K motor out of a 96 automatic s14!!!

ook.. Now.. i need a clutch..in order to get things running by next weekend.anybody have a good used one?

thanks for reading my long as post
