5 lug swap?

ok well i got my flame suit on, but i have searched and i still dont really have a straight answer on what to do, .. i am buy a 5 lug swap from someone on the board hopefully, now it comes with front splindes, hubs, rotors, and 2 rear rotors, hubs from a S14 and i am planning on going to 3z brakes also, so now my real question is... what do i need to do for the 5 lug swap, can i just bolt up the hubs and get the lower control arm and itll be all good? or will i have to press out the rear hub to make it work on a s13? i guess i am looking at whatever help u can give me. please not to many flames i searched and i am just lookin for some straight answers.

also anyone have some stock 5 lug wheels for sale?

Easy 5-lug for dummies:

1) Call JSPEC and order a set of ATTAIN hubs (~$400).

2) Go to Nissan dealer and buy a set of S14SE 5-lug rear hubs.

3) Once assembled put front hubs in place (you retain stock S13 suspension) and put rear hubs in place. DO NOT FORGET TO GET 5-lug ROTORS! (off S14SE)

you need more than the 5 lug hubs.. if i recall correctly, you'll need: 5 lug hubs, s14 spindles because they are slightly larger, and s14 ball joints pushed into s13 LCAs. this is for the front.

for the rear, you can use z32 n/a 5 lug hubs or s14.

Dude, with the amount of money you spend on LCA's, Spindles and hubs you could get Attains that just bolt right in.

yes for as far as i know it would be a straight bolt on for you the only diff. is for me is the front lower control arm is shorter so i would have to get one with a s14 ball joint.
