bolt pattern on brake conversion?

i have some 5x100 wheels that i wanted to put on my s13, i know i can upgrade the brakes to 300zx or skyline brakes and they are 5 lug, but what is the pattern on them and if they are not 5x100 is there any way i can convert the pattern to 5x100 by changing the rotors and not using adapters? thanks

The bolt pattern is 5 x 114.3.

I think there is a way to change the pattern with bolt on adapters. I have seen them for the 4 x 100 to 4 x 114.3 but I have yet to come accross the 5 lug style.

Your best bet would be to salvage the entire knuckles off of a 300zx. car-parts.com has a pretty good listing of salvage yards to get the goods from. Sport compact car mag did an article on doing this. Good luck.

This would still kinda leave him up the creek without a paddle.

One of the guys on IFX scored some 4x114 to 5x114s. I will ask him if there were any 4x114 ~ 5x100 where he got his from.

there is no possible way to put a 5x100 wheel on a Nissan without custom fabricating hubs from scratch.


getting 4-to-5-lug adapters is on the same intelligence level as getting cut springs.
