You get what you paid for. Ebay is mostly a miss. But some people get lucky & their money's worth.

S14 front bearings cannot be replaced like S13 bearings can. The entire hub would have to be replaced. And in terms of money, if you keep replacing with bullshit parts, you will be spending as much as you could have been spending for OEM fronts.

As for the rears, it's not a bad deal considering bearings are interchangeable between S13/S14/NA Z32 so finding used ones or new ones for cheap isn't all that hard. I guess all you would have to worry about is the quality of the studs.

All in all, you get what you paid for. If you got your money's worth, awesome. Go OEM & be assured quality.

I'm currently running them and if i could do it over i will go oem. The rears don't fit as snugg but can be solve by tightening the axle end bolt tightly,the fronts have a little roar but its not that bad and it only noticible at low speeds. oem is the best route but these will do

S14 doesn't need "conversion" parts. 5 lug S14 parts bolt on to 4 lug S14 parts.

You're better off using used OEM hubs than ebay parts. S13/S14/NA Z32 rears are interchangeable. Fronts are not. S14 & Z32 came with factory 5 lug (US).

You will also need a set of 5 lug rims. Use the SEARCH function, its been covered MORE than a few hundred times... I promise.

^^ all the searching related directly to s13's because i guess the 95' 4 lugs are rare. and im not really that good with these cars yet. i have 5 lug wheels and trying to figure out the best way to change to 5 lug without it being a cheap or crappy way of doing things
