Okay I got z32 rear knuckles for my s13 fit perfect now I bought some 5 lug spindles off some guy of CL and the spindles didnt fit. The wheel bearing was to big. And I could swap the s13 bearing in it because it was to big for the diameter... guy was cool about it gave me my money back... now im trying to finish my 5 lug asap cashed out and seeing what else I could do to finish the swap... kinda in a budget now that I boughy z32 front and rear. Knuckles and im open to any suggestions... thnks

Oh and dont hate im learning....

you need front S14 spindles (and either sleeve the strut mount with 1mm thick sleeves or redrill the strut holes and use S14 bolts).

You also need S14 lower arm ball joint, as the taper is different. Getting the whole S14 lower arm is a good idea, it bolts on and is 8mm longer.
