5 lug conversion question - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

i bought a set of 300zx front spindles with 5lug hubs
these:

i was told these would fit my 98 240sx... to achieve the 5lug conversion..

well i took off my front wheels and this doesnt look like it will fit...

any ideas y?

Because, they wont fit.

Trust me, they wont fit.

Only S14 OEM fronts or Pressed in J30's will work. Oh and aftermarket fronts.

It wont fit because it's not meant to fit. Only the rear non-turbo Z32 hubs work on the s-chassis. The rear uprights work as well, but I forget what needs to be done for them to work.

Get your money back.

got it... im just gonna use the hubs.

The hubs won't work either.

Only rear non-turbo Z32 hubs will work.
