On an s13 is the Z32 rear 5-lug conversion the only way to do it. Just wondering cuz I am pretty set on doing the 5-lug conversion because the wheels I want are only 5X114.3. Also for the front the s14 conversion is easier as long as you get the ball joint right? If I do the 300zx brake converions on front only and upgrade the master cylinder to the 300zx one will that be to much for the rear brakes? Thanks

If your going to do a 5 lug conversion, I'd think you'd want to upgrade your brakes all around. Otherwise you have to have your tiny brakes redrilled for 5 lugs. Get either stock z32 brakes or find some brakes off a s14 se. I think the reason people usually use the z32 rear hubs is because of weight and availbility. The z32 are a lot easier to find than a s14 se. I think you could use the s14, not positive. You should also be fine with the z32 master cylinder.

will the z32 front hubs fit as well? that way you only gotta find one wrecked car, and not 2 (240sx se and a z32).
