Where are you getting r32 hubs from? Why are you getting them just for 5 lugs? If that the case you can use Z32 300zx hubs. You'll need matching rotors or redrill your old ones. If you get the hubs you might as well get 300zx brakes. and if you do the brakes might as well get the z32 front spindles.-Alex

I am 95% sure they will fit. I have a set in my garage. The only mod that needs to be done to mine is remove the ball joint for the HICAS and put a bushing in it.

They should be the same as 300ZX hubs. MY R32 rear subframe is coming with the hubs and rotors

ok, i took the skyline front hubs apart and found that they will not fit a 240sx. they are the same as a 300zx front hub assembly. they bolt onto the spindle from the back like a 300zx not from the front like a 240sx.

the rear subframe has nothing to do with the front hubs so regardless.. if they don't fit..
