Gonna resurrect this one. Does anyone make a porsche 5 lug drum that can directly replace the 4 lug?

yes, but...

Why not upgrade to ghia discs that are drilled for 5x130 (porsche)

bug rear drums : http://www.socalautoparts.com/product_info.php/ind...30-p-13060

front drums here but call them because they usually do have 5 lug pre-drilled : http://www.socalautoparts.com/product_info.php/aft...30-p-12644

I should have explained better. I've got a 71 Ghia that has disc brakes in the front and drum in the back. I want to put a good 5 lug disc brake kit on the front but was looking to just change out the drums on the back.

Sebro makes rear drums in the 5x130 pattern.

ahhh ok. So yes on the drums I listed above. Rears seem to be easy to get from most VW shops already drilled 5x130

As Erik G suggested, SoCal Imports has direct bolt-on drum conversion for your car. No machining required. Click the link Erik G provided in his post for the drums
