ok so i think im going to change to 5 stud and i have a couple quick questions.

front .. if i have s13 stubs/axles will an s14 hub just fit over the s13 stub ie the axle is the same size?

rear .. i have z31 rear hubs will these fit inside the standard dr30 brake discs ie leaving only the new hole spacing to be drilled ? or better yet just swap to a z31 rear disc?

if there is more to this please let me know

Cheers Marc

Not sure about the rear, but the front you will need s14/s15 hubs AND knuckles.

Alternatively, you can buy 5 stud hubs that suit s13 knuckles of usa ebay and such, cheap and supplied with new bearings.

Heard good and bad about them

Cheers

Come on Dennis give me a little Credit!

the 5 stud idea is so i can fit some very cool wheels iv been able to find and im not sure how changing the stud pattern constitutes huge aftermaket mods?

And yeah i am pinching pennys where ever i can to save me money on this car, i dont have lots of coin so ill save it where i can.

I have an idea for it and ill stick to it! iv never said i want to keep it stockish in saying that i want the interior stockish. i just want to keep it old school Jap Cool.

Now maybe you have in this case been confused cause i have the car thats already a 2.2leter and verious other mods.?

I am disapointed you made that post as i thought we got on well?

Sorry Marc, but as you know, I wasn't alone in Melbourne and you know another on this forum was there as well and all 3 of us got the impression you were really strapped for cash.

I do understand there is a greater selection of wheels in 5 stud pattern, but the selection in 4 stud isn't far behind. I guess you have found what your looking for and want to change your hubs to suit. Nothing looks worse than a 20+ year old car with new shite & briny wheels.

My idea of these classics is to keep them to the genre they were manufactured in and keep searching till I find what I like in the fashion it has to be. You might think I'm not nice but that's how I see it & on the occassion we met in Melbourne, I wasn't alone.

Just as an example, I have about 4 or 5 pairs of hot plate tail lights, but all grey background, yet the PNV had black out of the factory and I just paid 60000 yen on yahoo + all of the domestic + EMS freight & commissions which will end up being about AU$1150.00 delivered to keep the car authentic. I have also bought from Nissan a set of the chrome mouldings that go on the doors & rear window sills. Another AU$600.00, because the originals are damaged, to make the car concourse condition.

Cheers, D

    • He obviously had his reason for flipping you off. I wonder what it was...
    • Thats why I stay far, far away from Eastwood. only go there if I wanna eat Korean food 
    • I have to agree like, yesterday, I was driving down the warringah freeway towards the bridge when this jackass driving a beaten up Honda civic cut me off so suddenly it made me almost yank the wheel to avoid him hitting my car. Honestly and he had the NERVE to flip me off (or some other gesture Idk). Im a calm guy, but really some people just dont deserve to have a license, let alone be allowed to drive on densely populated roads/highways. If youre gonna cut through lanes at least use the damn turn signal
    • HPA do an interesting video on tuning, and Adrian shows on the dyno, moving from 10:1 to 12:1 (And I think even 13:1) and the power moves SFA. However, a couple of degrees of timing has a HUGE impact. Exhaust side of things will more be the length of the exhaust and how many bends and turns you have. The straighter you can keep it, the better. By a lot. Oh, and getting the diameter right. Bigger isn't always better. Going to big can actually lose you power.
    • I have to say, most people I see on the road fit the bill of atrocious drivers. Whether they be cowboys in their dual cabs, bogans in the Commodores, or the soccer mums. Pretty much most people on the road put zero freaking thought into driving. Barely look further up the road then the end of their bonnet, and have never even thought about how catastrophically wrong shit can go, by doing what they all deem as normal driving. Especially their late braking, racing to stopped lights, and sitting half a foot off the bumper of the car in front at 110km/h. Wanna know what's even better? By the time their kids get to be old enough to learn to drive, they've already got in the back of their brain what is normal driving, how annoyed you're allowed to get at people etc, and then their parents who actually have zero freaking skill at driving (Even though they constantly say "I've been driving for 20 years and never had an accident!") teach the little twerps how to drive, or should I say, how to make a car move. Literally watched a parent teach their L Plater, on a 4 lane freeway, that you just slam the brakes on, and push your way over, even with a B Double bearing down on you, and that's how you should drive, rather then, just keep going to the next exit. Same shit happens all the time for side streets etc, watching numpties pull dumb shit turns pushing across 3 lanes of traffic, rather than just go up the road another 30 seconds, and take the next turn that'll get you to the same location... Oh, and the damn right lane bandits. Or the retards driving along with their headphones in, and can't hear the ambulance or fire truck right up their ass about to run them over...   Pretty much, people drive on the road, like ego centric f**ks, and don't actually think how dumb shit their driving is, how it could easily kill them or someone else in a split second, or at the very least, how they're driving is contributing to all the shit they're bitching about on the road, like shitty congestion!
