uh-oh spagetti-Os!

you cant do ANYTHING

its twin turbo!!!!
cant use it w/ s13 axles....MAYBE can use z32tt axles, but not sure if the length will fit too! its a wider subframe iirc!

ONLY NA (non turbo) fit!

you got screwwwwwed.

you can use the brakes though, but a z32 rear brake setup on a 4 lug s13 would be funny

oh the front? hah..no wont work too! not even z32NA fronts fit! only s14 and some other JDM skylines (various models) and maybe s15, but not sure about that.

z32 uses double wishbone front too (i think that's what its called), so completely different

you can use the frton z32tt brakes w/ ease. basic bolt on type modification!




so all in all what you can use from what you bought


the brakes


maybe rear upright (what the arms and hub connect to) but not 100% sure, because might be different size and all.

I am in the process of putting z brakes and 5 lugs on my s13 coupe at the moment.

dousan36 is right, neither hubs will work. The axle is a differnt lenght. It also has a different bolt patern than your stock diff's out put flanges.

All and all you probably didn't come out that far behind sice you bought them all together. I would guess that they charged you 300 or so for hubs with the brakes attached. If you scored rotors with them the fronts and backs alone are near $300 new.

All my reciepts total over 800.

Here is a short list.

s14 f lug front hubs $120
300zx NA rear hubs w/ upright and ebrake $135
s13 lower control arms from a yard $Free$
s14 ball joints $30
Brembo OE front rotors $120
Brembo OE rear rotors $180
SS lines $140
Z32 Brake MC $50
Z32 calipers all 4 $126
Misc parts to convert e-brake lines $10
Pads ~$100
