Okay I am currently using the GTO 5 lug front hub converter to make my S13 5 lug. I need to get longer wheel studs (the Nismo 60mm units) however I am wondering which ones to order. Do the GTO hubs use the stock regular S13 front studs? There are two kinds to order and I am just unsure which ones to get. Thanks, Jason.

Found out myself! For those of you wonderign the same thing you should use the Nismo S13 studs. Not the 300zx or s14 units. Cool!

Sweet! Where'd you get the info?
I had asked around, and everyone either said "no", or "I think so" as to whether they could even be changed..
I was curious about how they were installed.. I know some lugnuts are pushed in, and have teeth, while others are opposite thread screw in..

but they dont fit perfect like OEM would
you need to get them pressed in
i got this info from ALEX (mav178) because i stripped one of my GTO stud
its not as easy install like oem are.

so then get some NISMO s13 ones? good deal.
i have this lug nut push installer thing thats you use a wrench with and tighten it down (like you would with using a nut). you think this would work to put in the new ones? mine are still brand new but i want to put some longer ones in so ica n run some spacers.

I just pushed in my nuts with my own hands, wasn't very tight, kind of loose actually. Hurt like hell, and I didn't want to touch anyone (and vice versa) before washing my hands, it was all good though, worked like a charm!
You can do it too!

Okay so if you don't have them pressed in (who would do this??) they don't work or fit? (the s13 nismo into the GTO hub)

So who would press the studs into the hubs? A machine shop?
