Bj1 1.8 5-stud conversion
Hey guys, sorry if it's been posted about before i'm on my phone and it won't let me search posts,
I've just bourght my self some mazda cx-7 18" rims for my bj1 323, fully understanding the fact that a 5-stud (sp20) conversion is in need to have these wheels fitted, Just wondering if anyone has done this before or am i ganna be the first to actually go threw with doing it?, I know that all the suspention set up is all the same and that the front hubs are a direct change over, really my main concern is. Are the hub splines the same? And do the 5-stub hub&bearing unit directly fit on to the rear stub-axels? Or dose the sp20 rear stub-axel need to be used?, Obviously the 5-stud brake rotors are also needed to be replaced also. Thanks in advance ... Andy |
Probably the same as a BA swap. New hubs, if you've got abs make sure you get abs hubs. New rotors calipers and pads are all I needed. Splines would most likely be the same.
|
All you need to do is swap the hubs and discs. the calipers are the same and no worries about drive shaft not fitting.
i have a g series gear box and drive shafts into my 1.8 hubs. I havent done the 5 stud conversion yet myself. |
Yep, I've got a BJ1 too and I'm looking at a similar conversion; the hubs just change straight over, and change the discs and thats all thats too it.
Edit: Beaten to it! |
keep your uprights, keep your calipers. install hubs and new rotors. done...
|
Beautiful going to be easy as first thourght, thats good well once i get the wheels powder coated and some new rubber i will be doing the conversion, thanks heeps everyone,
I spoke to a bloke from mazda was trying to see if he could tell me the spline counts and if the rear bearing is the same fit ment, but he almost had a heart attack and saying " how would you know, you just can't do that no one could tell you bla bla bla" bloody hopeless, oh well cheers everyone |

The fronts should be a straight bolt on jobbie with hub & knuckle.
The rears, you will need the rear control arms aswell as the sp20 arms are shorter than the normal 4-stud version arms. P.S. if you need the complete conversion to 5-stud, I have 99% of the bits if you need |
Hi I'm looking for a front hub for 2003 Mazda sp20 do u know if the 1.8 and the 2.0 are the same hub. A bit random but thanks
