Hello, I've tried searching for answers, but all I got was base S14's converted to 5 lug, not no S13's. Anyways, I have a 93 240sx SE coupe, and wanted to convert them to 5 lug w/ Z32 calipers, so I bought a pair of 300zx N/A front spindles which came w/ hubs. I already have 4 S14 SE rims. My quesion is what else do I need to make the front spindles fit my S13? Do I need the front control arms, if I do, will the 300zx arms work? Or do I need S14 arms? Same goes with the ball joints? And are S13 rear spindles the same size as the rear S14 SE kinds? Or are S14 brakes bigger? Because I want the rear to be 5 lug also. If the spindles are the same size, then all I need is the hub? Right?

the 300zx tt brakes are the ones you want, i dont know if u meant that the rotors are on the spindles or whatever, go to http://www.240sx.org and look at the z32 brake install

Naw, what I wanted to do is that my spindles are 4 lug, and I wanted to make them 5 lug, and while I was going to change them to 5 lug, I might as well do the 300zx brake upgrade. But the thing is, I wanted to know if the 5 lug front spindles from a 300zx N/A that I bought would work with my S13?

buy GTO front 5 lug hub conversion. easier. thats what i need. and i think zilvia.net somewhere has a group buy on the Attains front 5 lug hub conversion. i did the gto up front and s14 hubs in the rear and had new bearings pressed in.
