Re: 5 lug front conversion s13

[tdawg88]

Ok so im broke but started a 5 lug conversion already n did the rears. Learned that fronts are a bit different on an s13. So I cant afford the kits made and was informed that the hubs off a J30 would work. Is this true? Coz if so, shit im down at the shop tomorrow having them done. Otherwise please let me know.

Also in my searches, I learned and read dont recall which section of it but the person doing the write up mentioned that it would be unsafe to use hubs off a z32 so im wondering if the j30's are likewise? Anyone let me know your thoughts. Thanx

Why can't you just use front S14 hubs, spindles, and LCA?

[LookOut Nick]

^^ what he said or jsut get the hubs uprights and spindle and buy a tight moog balljoint

[tdawg88]

I dont use the s14 parts because they are too hard to find and requires too much parts to be changed. S13 hubs are just swapable. So I am looking to be as cheap as I can now coz I cant spend 250+ man...

1) Learn how to type. Reading your ebonics shit is like trying to decipher the writing on the Great Wall of China.

2) Quit being cheap. If you can't afford it, don't do it. Cutting corners because you're lazy and broke is pitiful.

J30 front hubs will not work, completely different design. Neither will any other Nissan model except the S14/S15. Go back to who told you wrong and beat him about the face and neck.

Why thank you very much for that quick lesson in English grammar as it compares to that of the far east my good chum. The information has been seriously digested and will be kept with high esteem. I appreciate your grandiose information as it surpasses my intuition greatly. Please forgive my pitiful question and I will refrain in the near future from asking such undiluted remarks such as the one above.

PS. A simple: "no! it wont work would sufice btw" but I take it your way is the only way that you can muster as a form of expression. I apologize that my post was hard to understand but in either case, Thanks.

Suffice. Two 'Fs'.

But good try. Only reason I point out poor grammar is that it makes you look young and ignorant, and more than likely not serious about your question. By presenting yourself in a more educated manner you stand a better chance of getting assistance, because you appear more willing to learn.

Dude 5 lug is for ballers only. If you can't afford the conversion, how are you gonna afford the wheels?

[A Spec Products]

This reminds me of when Mike Tyson got out of jail and was using all these big words.

Enough talk about grammar, although R240NA is right.

Don't be cheap. Why would you start 5 lug without all the parts, or all the money to finish it?

And please guys, if you go 5 lug, make it worth your while. Don't go 5 lug, only to resort to throwing on some junkyard wheels. You go 5 lug so you can run some NICE wheels, nice fitting, nice looking, etc.

Also, you shouldn't have picked a fight with R240NA, if you had asked nicely, he might have sold you 5 lug parts, lying around in his huge junkyard, err, I mean backyard collection

[tdawg88]

That is fine and understandable. I have the wheels already and so many excess parts laying around. I barely know anything about the s13 and keep hearing different things from other people. I dont intend to just be cheap with whatever conversion or upgrade I make however I wanted to know if that notion was possible otherwise screw it. Thanks for your insight however and the spelling check. You guys will serve me well through my first years in college.

on the contrary however, picking a fight was nowhere near my intention. I am a bit pissed off at various individuals who waste enough time putting others down rather than making that time productive enough to do something about it or ignore it. Just makes a bit of sense to me. I am not looking for anyone to sell me anything unless it is obviously available/offered. I was merely checking the self talk or crappy information people give me and figured I could save myself the 250+ however if spending is what I gotta do then that goes beyond asking people on here for the opinion. So apologies for any inconvenience my thuggish Mike Tyson like attitude brings. I will keep in mind to be more politically correct when I address people on here.

I don't know what others do, but I wouldn't make stylistic criticism of what you post. This is the 'net after all. As long as I know what you're saying it's fine; but however, if the grammatical/spelling errors make your question indefinite and ambiguous, that's a different question.

Just keep that in mind. Keep your sentences short and precise. Let the people know exactly what you're working with. Nobody wants to pick a fight; they're just frustrated with trying to understand cryptic postings
