Thread: who has done the big brake 4x114.3 conversion?

For the Skyline brakes: did you had to fab a bracket for the calipers?
I have a RNN14 and been considering the R32 brakes as theyre easy to find here

I used N16 hubs as the caliper bolt pattern is correct for the Skyline caliper (100mm vs 130mm for stock AD22VF). The catch with doing that is the skyline rotor needs to be resized (minimum 6mm, recommend 8mm) as the caliper sits a little too close to the centre to fit the rotor in.

I chose this path because i wanted an upgrade that when inspected visually, showed no dogbone or adapter plate and therefore raised no immediately visible engineering concerns.

For the RNN14, the main concern is their hubs are unique with regards to the tie rod attachment point height. This is higher to compensate for the higher rack location on the firewall. Fitting N16 hubs lowers this point by about 2" (which essentialy is like a big bumpsteer kit adjustment) but sometimes this is too far if the car is not lowered heavily requiring longer tie rod ends to keep a safe number of adjustment threads available.

i know it's an old thread but. just to be clear you can use g20 hubs in the rear (bolt on) and g20 knuckles in the frt to go 4X114? and use g20t axles?

i was thinking about doing it to do the spec v brembo's in the frt and p11 or b16 wheels. i think that would look great!

i used the b15 hub and knuckle. had to machine a bit out of the diameter of the 300zx rotor, but it worked fine. obviosly we drilled the rotor for 4x114. dont know FOR SURE on the altima, but the b15 hub worked perfectly with my factory axles.

by the way, we used stock s13 wheels.....the se ones i think. worked GREAT. i switched to p10 rear hubs and rotors.

check my for sale thread. I have u13 rotors, z32 calipers, b15 hubs/spindles, and 16" manaray wheels. rears havent been touched yet

I was test fitting a P10 rear hub on my NX the other day. It fit, but it sticks out approx .25" more than the stock B13 hub does. That offset my rotor and in turn my caliper. So, I had to shim the caliper bracket outward to get the rotor to sit flush on the hub. Also i wasn't able to fit the washer back on the spindle to the part with the flat sides, but I had plenty of threads to engage the spindle nut. I upgraded to maxima rear calipers a while ago so I just bought some P10 rotors and everything bolts up right, and functions properly. I was just wondering if anyone else had this issue while swapping from B13 to P10 hubs and what was done to correct this if at all?

why would you want to go to 4x114 instead of keeping 4x100? we wish it was easier to convert our p10 to 4x100 for a lot more wheel options!

Well, I'm not trying to speak for everyone, but I see alot of guys wanting to go the way I am. The bulk of nice aftermarket wheels I'd like to buy are 4x114. Specifically I'm swapping my rear because I'm doing the 6 speed swap(B15 spindles are 4x114), and using 04-06 spec v wheels to clear the brembos.

go figure because I found so many more 4x100 options I'd love to use on our track rat g20 and had a hell of a time finding 15x8s in an offset that could work and not stick out like stupid crab crawlers with all the 15 and 0 offset options means for RWD older 4x114 cars
