you can do 5-stud conversion with r33 bits. not hard. just need floating hubs from import R31, and slap on the discs and brakes. however - let not talk about brakes here. once again. loookin HOT AS ****. love it. especially to dori-teks.

I wish the brakes were that simple, if you just fit the floating hubs..nothing bolts up, just done this.. you need the import struts aswell or your ****ed. I got some caliper adapters from another conversion, but then had to get 23mm(around that)) spacers fitted to them to make them fit, then the disc hit on the bottom of the lower arm heavily(with the import strut apparently you just file it abit), So now i have fitted 280zx steering arms, which give me more camber and caster aswell,and gave me 20mm clearance to the lower arm. but i have had to fit 20mm spacers to the rims to clear the strut(the caliper has heaps of room),Well i think it clears haven't rolled it yet, it would only clear a few mm..... so the imports must be different offset aswell. So "hopefully" when the car goes up on the 90/10 struts, the rims still clear the struts??? It looks tougher, the rims are heaps further out gtr style and the camber looks tough, hopefully it all works out, or i'm ****ed, as the aussie struts don't fit in import struts or i would have kept searching for some. Commordores are easy cheers darren Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
