hmm, why go 5 lug? are you going to do TyTe JDM style plus size drifting?

[Dousan_PG]

mail me your camera and i'll take some pics :p


make thsi thread useful:

used NA z32 rear hubs
got them w/ the uprights.
fortunately we have extra subframe
after 1/2 hour of breaking the bolts loose (hand tools) i got it! DEFINATELY NEEEEEEEED that extra subframe. one of the bolts is a SUPER biatch!!!

got hubs off.

240sx removing
shock (disconnect lower mounting point)
remove pin
axle nut off first
brake caliper off
brake rotor off
4 bolts back of upright off
pull off hub

put z32 5 lug hub on
bolt in 4 on back
put rotor back
put caliper back (i can change my rear brake pads in 3 mins -remove pads and put pads back in whoo hoo)
bolt in caliper
bolt back on axle nut
pin back in (new one)
wheel on

test drive...

took me FOREVER..like 2.5 hours. no air tools SUUUCKS
i cut my hand in 5 different places. old car, bolts never taken off huuuuurts.
anyways, worked it all bymself.

rating 1 being easiest, 10 hardest

i give it a 3. bolt in job, just takes elbow grease. :)

a) because im people who know people, might get some GTR R33 wheels CHEAP

b) dorifto180sx has r33 wheels and getting some r32 too

c) 5 lug 15s in japan are DIRT CHEAP. hehehehhehehe

d) 4 lug is nice, but i want wider wheels with more choices

e) 4 lug offsets suck sometimes. and too popular, gotta battle w/ hachi drivers and the growing 240sx market, makes prices rise

f) 5 lug is cool.i read too many japanese mags, most 180sx/silvia are 5 lug with some SICK wheels (SSR professor, TE37, various volk, GTR, Model 5, Kruezer, etc, misc)

ahh i wish i had some of those.

i seem to be missing the part where this is a serious problem. id love to have problems like yours, lol.

[Dousan_PG]

serious problem? only 1/2 of car is 5 lug
i get best of both worlds (like drifting)
um...i need new rotors (sigh)
new rotors for the new brkaes up front (stock 95 SE replacing z32tt), need new pads, new ss lines. also need to get tires on the other pair of wheels (ES100?) and swap tires off the old XR4s. new hub comes end of may for front. so till then, ricer!

but im excited. first time in almost 1 year, i'll have four matching wheels! FINALLY. im sick of the 'drifter' look :rolleyes: people just dont understand.

[pruto]

Jason was drifitng on R33 rims at RS*R, sweet, but not my cup of tea.

yes, wheel selection, its why i switched to 5 lugs... then i realized the drawbacks...

pruto: yeah i know. i know jason's GTR wheel stuff too..im so jealous! :) but its cool. his car is SO NICE

[pruto]

Jason has TWO sets of R33 wheels, that punk...

btw, anyone know if Jason fixed his front damage? that was such a shame, but i told him his car looked sooo f*ing sweet even with that messed up front.
