I’ve been looking around at brakes and such for s13’s. I’m no brake wise thats for sure.  
I have stock brakes on the back and for some reason the guy who owned the car before put 5 lug and z32 brakes on the front… so 5 lug = front, 4 lug = back.  
I would like to upgrade the brakes to 5 lug and z32 all the way around.

I was looking around and found

Since I only need the rears, what would I exactly need to convert my rear 4 lug to a 5 lug.

What exactly does the conversion consist of?

If I bought the rear spindles and rotors + 20mm spacers if TyPhOOn still has them, could I use that conversion + add z32 rotors, pads and calipers onto of it?

Btw, this isn’t Sam.  
I’m quite new to brakes and just need some help.

Thanks.

the rear calipers don’t hook up to the stock e-brake lines though, that will require some modification.  
And your list also needs Z32 conversion brake lines.
