How To Remove Rear Hubs On A31?

Hey guys, just as the titile says.

Im doing a brake conversion, fronts are done but rears are being a pain. Dont normally do things cars but if its just nuts and bolts I usually figure things out as I go along.

I have R34 spec calipers and rotors and using Just japs 5 stud hubs, Yes I have done endless hours of searching but none of the other threads never mentioned this being a problem.

At the moment Im not too sure on how to get the rear hubs out. Picture to what I want off is here;

Now Yes this may be a stupid question, but it doesnt seem to just want to pull off. I have tried with a fair bit of force but I didnt want to break anything just in case I have missed something. Is it just stuck on the bearing or what?

I have looked at the back and can see a few bolts, Now which bolts if any are holding it in? I took a picture a few months ago

These pics are a few months old so cant exactly remember how many there are or what not. I believe theres 4 of the red ones though.

(I took these pics a few months ago so cant quite remember how many there were or what not.) Or do I just have to pull harder? Is there any hints/tricks to get these things off?

Any Help would be much appreciated.

Just want to get it done as driving around with mismatched rims isnt exactly a good idea :( Ive been lucky so far with the cops but dont want to push my luck.

Cheers guys. :(

      Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

      I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)

      Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily.

      Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
