Hello im new, I've searched. was wondering if i did the front and rear 5 lug conversion using the s14 setup would i still have to change my rear suspension? or would the s13 suspension work on the 5 lug s14? i know if was to use the 3z's i would, but just curious if i did the s14 i could still use my tein HA's, since they are brand new.

thanks in advance

i don see why you would have to change the suspension, all you are swithing is the hubs per say, i dont think an s14 setup would even fit w/o fabrication

ok there is faq section and this stuff is covered. recommend you read and search before asking.
though I will humor you . the S14 5 lug hubs will work all the way around on the S13. Though on the front you must use the S14 knuckles and put in S14 ball joints in your S13 control arms. Unless you want to throw down some cash and get aftermarket from Japan 5 lug front hubs for S13.

Attain hubs: ~$400-450.

They are your friend. Sam at Jspec should be able to help you out.

So I can just goto the junkyard in hopes to find an S14 with the 5-lug. When I go there I tell him that for the front I need the hubs, knuckles, and ball joints...and for the rear all that I need is the hubs?
