z32 brake conversion for s14

[OneBitchin240]

sorry guys, noob question...

I couldn't find any kind of write-up or info on this after searching... if anyone knows the location of a post on this topic just drop a link in here

Anyway, the question is: What in-all is involved in a full Z32 caliper/rotor conversion on a S14 and when you do it, can you use Z32 hubs for a five lug conversion?

thanks

http://importnut.net/300zxbrakeswap.htmthats the guide i used to do my swap. everything on that page is good to go by except for the ebrake cable part. you'll have to be creative to get it to work and noboby has had a great solution for it yet.

what about the hubs for the five lug conversion?

possible?

[Bronze MFP]

if its from a NA 300z, they should work... the spindle holes for the twin turbo are bigger and wont work with the 240sx axles if i remember correctly

so, just to be as annoying as I can possibly be -

should I be able to use n/a z32 hubs with turbo rotors and calipers?

that's probably a dumb question but I haven't got down and looked at the brake system very closely on the 240

You can use your 4lug setup, just get the Z32 rotors drilled for 4 lug...

i know I can do that - the whole point is that I'm trying to upgrade my brakes AND do a 5 lug conversion in preparation for an SR20 swap (and just cuz it looks cool)
