im new to the forum. i have read a lot of the 5 lug swap posts and i cant find the information i need.

i have access to z32 tt hubs and i want to know if the fronts will swap directly into my s13, if so do i need any special parts or will it bolt right in?

He did answer your question. There are no special parts you can buy that would make the TT hubs work on your 240 spindle.

Your options are (and if you've really done research, you would know this already) s14 front hubs and spindles (including LCA ball joint and strut bolts), or aftermarket conversion hubs.

And before you ask about the rears, they won't work either. The TT uses a bigger rear axle, so the 240 axles will just rattle around loosely in the hub.

thank you thats what i was looking for,

so if i go with the aftermarket 5 lug hubs, are ebay ones any good?

and would the z32 rotors and calipers work or would i have to use s14 ones? or would it depend on the lug pattern of the hub

ebay one works fine. the S5 tha i have is still holding up. just don't put an extended lugs on it

just get an ebay 5 lug hub that will fit the s13 and you can use the z32's. you can also use the s14 ones.
