I have a 98 Kouki and It is 4 lug. I assume the guy parted the 5 lug hubs off for some extra cash.

Was there ever a special shitty base trim?

What hubs would I want to use? NA z32/s14 hubs? Possible that its a s13 hubs on s14 spindles?

Any insight please would be appreciated.

Good chance you have a base model and those hubs are OEM. Check to see if you have rear sway bar, if you don't you have the base, or run your VIN because someone could have added one.

From Wiki

The base model had 4-lug, 15-inch wheels, a softer suspension, no rear sway bar, and no remote trunk opening option. SE and LE models came equipped with 5-lug, 16-inch alloy wheels, a stiffer suspension than the base model, and a rear sway bar. The LE was basically an upgraded SE model, equipped with leather seats, keyless entry, an antitheft system, and a CD player. Antilock brakes and a viscous limited-slip differential could be had as an optional package to both base and SE/LE models.
