Hubs are different, I tried to use a B14 (0 toe beam) on my B15 and when I tried to bolt up the hubs there was too much in and out play between the axle bolt and the hub/bearing assembly.
Best bet it is to leave it stock bolt pattern and get rims that are dual pattern (most aftermarket ones are), or redrill.

B15 beam and P11 beam is very different. My B15 SE w/pp beam is beefier then stock one (looks like a spec v one), but it's still not as big as the P11 one. The main difference is the left most SRL link mount, P11 is a 17mm bolt, while B15 is 14mm.
Also in my experience B15 beam is better, it doesn't shift as much as the p11 one does at stock heights and lowered heights. This could be because of different body sizes though. P11 beam is more like the Maxima one.

B15 and P11 beams come with 1/8" toe in vs 1/4" toe in on B14 beams. This still causes the car to pig through, bending to 0 toe helps a bunch.

To weld it its 120 $ and there's a warranty on it if it breaks again. Im doing it as a temporary fix. Because the beam is very broken. So yeah. I'll post picks of the broken and after.
Where are you located at? If anywhere near VA, I have a Spec V beam that I can sell you, heck I can even bend it to 0 Toe for you.
