S13 5 lug conversion & 300ZX brake upgrade

[Fairlady S]

I have all the hubs, brakes & everything from the bottom of a 300ZX, is that everything I need? Will the 300ZX front hubs mount right up to a S13 front? I need to get the modified brake lines but I was wondering if that's it.

front hubs won't work. back hubs will. If you're going 5 lug all the way, you'll need to get the front conversion hubs.

Thanks for the info, anything else I might need?

people usually forget the cotter pins. 30mm socket for the nuts, the conversion brake lines, the rotors, grab the rear ebrake assembly if you're gonna be there and be sure to grab the ebrake lines all the way up to the one that meets up to the cable that attaches to the ebrake handle...if that makes any sense.

ebrake handle ----(cable from handle)---|======(the two lines that split off from the ebrake handle to the two rear spindles)

Such necessary info!

the 5 lug front hubs off a 300ZX will not work? I know nothing about the brake conversion for the S13 240SX and I was about to get the front and rear 5 lug hubs, rotors and calipers. Your sure the front hubs will not work on a 90 240SX. Thanks for your info.

NO. Z32 & R32 front hubs will not bolt onto an 240SX. You must use S14 or S15 5-lug hubs or use conversion hubs. Try it if you don't believe me...completely different bolt pattern. YES I'M SURE!!!

if the r32 hubs wont fit, what about putting just the calipers from an r32 on the stock 240 rotors? if not, what rotor would work?
