A growling Z32 front hub is easy to ignore until the steering goes vague and the rotor starts to run out. Genuine Nissan front wheel bearing is the current bearing for Fairlady Z and 300ZX Z32 front knuckles. The same number fits left or right and was supplied new by NSK and NTN.
The bearing presses into the aluminum knuckle; the hub then presses into the inner race. That stack takes cornering load, braking torque, and the unsprung mass of a 3.0-liter Z, so a cheap pattern bearing that looks close on the bench often loses preload after a season of heat. The genuine race restores factory running clearance, quiets the hub, and keeps the rotor true so the pads wear evenly again.
Terra Firma Automotive supplies this Japan-spec Nissan bearing for owners who want the correct press-fit on a Z32, not a mixed-brand kit. One bearing services one side; two are required per car. Fitment covers USDM 300ZX from 1990 through 1996 and JDM Fairlady Z from 1989 through 2000, including 2-seater, 2+2, T-top, and convertible, naturally aspirated VG30DE and twin-turbo VG30DETT.
Press only on the outer race into the knuckle and only on the inner race onto the hub. Fit a new grease seal and the knuckle snap ring while the press is set up. Reuse the old hub only if the flange and splines are sound. If both sides rumble, replace the pair together.
