5 Stud Conversion

[Morgz32]

hey guys

looking at doing a 5 stud conversion to a s13 using s14 hubs and 33 calipers and rotors, just wanting to know what else ill need? if there is any threads on this? and if you can actually buy conversion kits?

thanks

you will probably need new handbrake lines like off a z32

attain or ntn conversion kits

thanks man

[PIG_31]

all good.

forgot you will need to swap front lcas or press the s14 ball joints into the s13 arms as well.

you'll also need new inserts to reduce your front stubs from m14 to m12 for the suspension mount bolts

or use s15 uprights

or drill out the mount holes on the coilovers\struts

Attain hubs are just bolt ons to the stock S13 front end aren't they?

[PIG_31]

yes conversion bearings with 5 stud hubs, press onto standard s13 spindle

Mate I've got front s14 LCA'S, Knuckles and hubs ready to bolt straight in they are in excellent condition $500

Sorry to hi-jack.

Im looking at converting the front of my DR30 to 5 stud and using S13 coil-overs.

Is it better to use S13 fronts with Attain hubs, or use the S14 gear?

Only advantage I can see with going the Attain route is the hubs are brand spankers.

S14 gives you a wider track.. Not 100% sure exactly how much but i think its around 15-20mm both sides

[Morgz32]

cant i just use s14 hubs, knuckes and lower control arm and im set? this way dont have to press in ball joints etc?

[PIG_31]

yes, if you are happy with the track increase and the resulting camber change (or can adjust it with tops)

you will still need to sort out the mounts or use s14/15 uprights

cheapest and simplest option unless youve already got the other s14 bits youll need

Rack ends

Don't forget them, cos the car will look weird with massive toe out
