Hi everyone !

I am new to this forum.

I have a few questions to ask. Hope you guys can help me out.

I am going to do a 5lug conversion for my S14b. What do I need to complete the conversion. I have to source to get just the 5lug front and rear hub. Do I need anything else ?

Please help , thanks.

You will need:

S14 front knuckles, both front right and left
S14 rear hubs or &nbsp;Z32 n/a rear hubs, rear right and left.

A front and rear set of 5 lug rotors.
A set of 5 lug rims.

thats it.

Our 5-lug conversion kit for S13s come with absolutely EVERYTHING you need to perform the swap, down to the necessary ball joints that no one seems to remember about. The kit also includes special inserts to allow you to retain your front S13 struts (works with OEM and aftermarket struts). This particular kit uses your stock rear brake components. Don't forget that you will need to use new 5 lug wheels with this swap. Kit does not include the Z32 front brake conversion.
