S13 5 lug to 4 lug??? "Yes its backwards!" - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

TTZ33 · 01-08-2013, 07:17 PM

Has anyone tried to use a 300zx spindle, E-brake, and caliper converted to 4 lug? I have a set of Rota's "4 lug" on my 91 240 and the 300zx brakes just laying around. Can I put a 4 lug hub / bearing on the ZX spindle and keep the ZX E- brake? Yes I know I would need drilled rotors. And no I do not just want to source new wheels. Thanks for any info, both helpful and demeaning.

I don't see why not, everything would be the exact same except it would be drilled for 4 lug. Had z32 brakes on the front with 4 lug for a while and no problems.

Why are you so attached to your 4 lug rotas?
