5 lug convo... - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

in performing a 5 lug swap, can 300 zx spindles be used to facilitate a front brake swap?

if so they are still cheap here on ebay

[edit] this is only the left, the right is under a different auction, i read it wrong at 3 am last night/this morning [/edit]

Well, looks like those spindles arn't going to reach their reserve...

I too would like to know if this is a possibility.  Anyone done this?  Someone on ebay was trying to sell 300ZX aluminum rear spindles claiming they would replace the cast iron spindles on a 240SX.

for the front you use the 240sx se 95+ i doubt (but i can be wrong) the 300zx front knuckle and spindle can be used.

on the rear you can use the n/a 300zx (i beleive the tt version cant be used i could be wrong on this as well) or the 240sx se 95+

i have done the front conversion and my rear hubs are coming in this tuesday to be done <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

I just did a 5 lug on S14. for parts, it's very simply go to www.car-parts.com search for front spindle for 95~98 SE ( make sure they comes with hub so call them before you order. And for the rear, you can get 95-98 rear hub. I get the rear for $50 bothsides, and the front for $160 shipped both sides.
