hey guys is it possible to do a stud conversion from 4-stud on a gsr to a 5-stud from a evo?
180s and 200s can get skylines studs.
why cant a gsr get an evos?

I will say it can be done ... A while ago, when I did my Sonata project, the first workshop I went to was going to convert it from the 4x114.3 to the Evo 5 stud ... That was cause he had the front and rear breaks, discs, and all the parts laying around from a half cut ...
so you get the brakes, hubs etc etc from a evo and put them on a gsr?
coz an evo brake upgrade i thought was possible as well. (well the callipers but not the rotors for obvious reasons.)
the fronts should be the same as a magna (spline count might differ though)
but u might be able to use magna outer cv's..
its the rears that are hard...
if i recall correctly,
u should theoretically be able to use:
-magna
-fto
-rvr
-hyundai's (some of them) i know sonatas are the same but they are also 4stud
^^^^ for better wheel selection I take it - I'm in the same boat as all the wheels I like are frikken 5 stud, especially all them deep dish ones I drewl over :roll:
Look in the pic below of all the Mitsu's that have the identical large 276mm front rotor dimensions and mix of 4 & 5 stud (look for 276-45-24-22.4-69-then 4 or 5 stud):
FRONT HUBS
Now as far as FWD/AWD goes, any of the 4 or 5 stud 276mm units and hubs above in blue circles should fit, including FTO, although I cant confirm 100% on all as you may also need the bearing to go with them.
REAR HUBS
As for the rears on a GSR/EVO AWD it's a different story and you will have to get the stock rear AWD hubs redrilled to 5 stud - thats the only solution I know of atm (I havent looked into DSM's or RVR's yet)
As far as a FWD Lancer is concerned, the FTO rear discs have the same dimensions as the GSR/EVO rear disc and they are a 5 stud and suited for non AWD, so technically they could be used (see the red circles, the top one is AWD rear from GSR/EVO, bottom one is FTO non AWD rear).
