5 lug front. 4 lug rear

I'm gonna be doin a Z front brake conversion soon. The question is, i want to get slotted rotors, what are some other ways to use other rotors besides getting them re-drilled for 4 lug? I can get 5 lug front hubs and use Slotted Rotors for the Z32. The Attein front hubs are direct bolt-on correct? with bearings? I could also do the whole 5 lug conversion. it just seems like doing the whole conversion is more work when the wheels i want are available in 4 lug (Gram Lights 57s 17x8.5 +22)

hey man. I know what is required for the 5 lug conversion. I'm not asking how to switch from 4 to 5 lug. I'm asking what are some options for running a Z sized rotor and retaining 4 lugs. Is there any other cars that use the Z size rotors with a 4 lug perhaps? like the Z31? Thanks for that link tho. Its exactly what i wanted.

i dont know if there is any other car the runs the same size rotor is 4 lug.

I had Z brakes and took them off to lock happy. Now i am using 180sx brakes alittle bigger than stock and works just as well.

jsut get some decent pads and rotors and you will be fine.
