Hello all,
I was wondering if anyone knows of a 5 lug conversion KIT or is redrilling the hubs the only way? I have been reading a few of the threads on this subject and I too am kind of put off by the extra holes. Any other option suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Also on an unrelated note, I have not been able to find the dimensions on the stock speakers/speaker mounting spots and I am hoping to put 6.5's in the front and 6x9's in the back. Would any cutting be necessary for those specs?

:newbie:

This IS part of my searching. So far I have been unable to find anything on any of the websites I know of (and yes they are few). It's not like I'm being a lazy SOB and having you guys do the work for me. Cut the new guy some slack eh.

use the search button at the top. on this site. newbie. :D

but if you're still having trouble... the easiest thing to do is to get a 5 lug conversion kit for the front (attain, or what have you), and get s14 or 300zx n/a hubs for the back and you're done. easy. there are other, more complicated ways, of doing the conversion, but i'll let you search for it.

Hi.
There are a couple different companies taht sell conversion hubs, such as GTO and Attain. You could also use various parts off the S14. I've never heard of people redrilling the actual hubs for 5-lug, but there are hub adapters (huge spacers with built-in bolt pattern conversion) you can get.

I don't recommend using conversion hubs because they are not as strong as oem hubs.... Just IMHO..... Go with S14 hubs from a junker or from a dealer... they aren't cheap brand new from the dealer....but if you are interested, i can get it for you. E-Mail: [email protected]

I don't know about conversion hubs being weak; my Attains are pretty beefy units and its quite a bit easier than what you have to go through to utilize the S14 front setup on an S13, assuming you've found a junkyard S14 SE with a worthwhile front suspension to take it off of, which can be a trial in and of itself depending on where you live.
