do i have to upgrade my brakes if i perform a 5 lugg swap???? is there a way i could use my stock s13 brakes or do i need to at least swap to s14??

Marc240 · 07-07-2009, 10:14 PM

You can use your stock S13 breaks no problem...

depending on what parts your doing it with. Just new hubs all round, or are you using complete LCA's and spindles?

jamg · 07-07-2009, 10:16 PM

you're going to have to use 5 lug s14 brakes.

but just upgrade them while you have everything off..

Marc240 · 07-07-2009, 10:19 PM

All you need to do is get 5 lug rotors or re-drill yours

roboticnissan · 07-07-2009, 10:26 PM

thanks a bunch fellas i just want to do a 5 lugg thats it no brake swap what so ever

Pick up a set of ichiba for cheap here on Zilvia, there's always a bunch of deals.
N/A Z32 hubs work for the rear only, there was a set for sae for $100 not to long ago.

Redrill your 4 to 5 lugs or just buy new rotors.

silviamayne · 07-07-2009, 10:52 PM

yea i got z32 rears an ichiba fronts. used stock rears an z32 up front. everything lines up no worries

wow this post has been up for like an hour and no multithousand poster has flamed me at all nice zilvia is cleaning up haha

*fliprayzin240sx* · 07-07-2009, 11:36 PM

^^^No, that just means we're having a good day so far...plus, Ive stayed away from Zilvia for a bit. Gave me enough time to decompress from the Noob onslaught...

PS: I wouldnt recommend Ichiba hubs, I know enough folks whos bearings went out up front in less than 8 months of having them. Personally, go OEM. Get brand spanking new front spindles from Nissan, I know there was an advertiser in here who had them on sale a while back. Think it was www.thenismoshop.com that had them on sale.

it won't happen if you get your oem bearings pressed into the ichibas. thats a very little discussed fact haha
