Re: bought a 240 this week
For the rear you just need a bolt on hub. They make that for the front too, but you have the S14 spindles, which is what makes OEM 5-lug up front expensive because you have to fork out the money for he hub and spindle. You MIGHT need S14 LCAs as well, I am not sure.
Out back a S14 or Z32 NA hub should bolt right on. Or you can buy the Ichiba rear hub and get an OEM nissan bearing because the aftermarket ones are junk. Ichiba might actually come with an OEM bearing now, I'm not sure.
The great thing about 5 lug is you can get MB Battles, or something else dirt cheap in a decent size. Rota makes so many 4-lug wheels now though that you could almost get a pair of wheels for those hubs/spindles. So I guess it really all depends on what you want.

Re: bought a 240 this week
The only difference between the s13 and s14 front suspension is the bolts on the s14 spindle assembly are M14 and the s13 is M12. If you use them either get s14 front coils or drill out the holes on the s13 coils.
Good deal though you got your money's worth in parts.

Re: bought a 240 this week
Congrats, I'm really happy to see you get something else. From seeing your previous threads I know you are going to have a blast with this car and take it a long way, I'll be happy to see your progress.
