Thread: B14 5 lug brake set-ups

Hey guys just curious to know break set-ups all most finished gathering parts to finish my 5 lug & 6 speed conversion.

If this helps (since I will be tracking whenever I can & daily)

Z32 26mm up front
I hear 4th gen maxima rear calipers & 11 inch rotors & hawk pads
Also my abs doesn't work & I have non abs specV spindles
So I was most likely going to buy a tilton break bias valve.
& floor mount pedals be a lot easier to mock up then finding a oem clutch pedal

Any insights will be greatly appreciated

Your over thinking this, just get b15 specv track edition brakes. I used specv spindles and all corresponding parts fr my 6spd swap. The specv breaks alone are a huge upgrade for a b13/14 so if you want even bigger/ better brakes just get the brembros for the specv track edition. For you b14 guys/gals you can use both front and rears. My b13 always had spongy brakes but now with specv breaks it stops on a dime.
As for five lugs I'll say the same thing I do to all the 240sx ppl, if you want five lugs for wheel options then fine but if you think it's stronger then your wasting your time. I helped build a 850whp 2jz s13 with four lugs and it never had a wheel lug break. On our fwd cars five lugs is over kill stick with the specv 4 lugs and you will have lots of options with less headache trying to match parts from 3 different cars. Good luck.

Ps floor mount pedals will be a bitch to make work just use a 1994 altima hydro clutch pedal and parts. They bolt in with very little work. You should really read all the 6spd swap threads before attempting the swap because it's not cheap or simple.

In the rear I have maxima rear hubs and brakes with the tdm imports adapter. In the front I have b15 spindles with the tdm imports 5 lug hubs, for a brake set up I went with the 12 inch wilwood set up available for the spec v and am re drilling the rotors to 5x114.

What size wheel are you running. Im hoping to run 16x8 track wheels

None of this is on the car yet but i have 17x8 im not sure if a 16 will clear the 12 inch rotor

Theres tons of 16in wheels that will clear with a spacer.

I'm trying to keep it oem(z32 wheels or fd rx7 wheels) if I get aftermarket wheels it most likely would be kosei k1s
