Hub swap, Swapping out original 4 lug for 5 Options

[ZacB20]

Need to swap out the original 4 lug for new 5 lug. Front and rear obviously. How much will it cost? What hubs should I use and who makes them? Thanks for the support guys!

the front "springs" are torsion bars
the 911 stock ones are bigger "stiffer" than stock 4 cylider ones...


you can upgrade from there to a stiffer spring rate.
you want to balance somewhat your rear spring rate to your front rates...

I know there's a torsion bar stock. I've left it their but added coil springs also. It's actually not as ghetto as it sounds. It's been done on multiple different car builds including Porsches and VWs

we used to do that on 944 rear ends, in order to beat the rules for club racing...
it will be fine, just harder to get the rates right. You may want to ditch the torsion bar, and you will likely need to reinforce the top of the strut mount. They weren't designed to hold the load once you transfer the area on the chassis bearing the weight.

your front coil spings will eat into your inner wheel clearance and require those flares though....

Thanks for the tips. I plan to have my buddy build a chromoly tube chassis. And yea like I said, I'm getting a body kit... I want a wider wheel trac
