I'd say for phase wires most people are using the larger bullet connectors (with a sheath of heatshrink), or Anderson Power Poles.
Or just solder them together if you never need to separate the controller from the motor.

I'm rebuilding my old hub motor with a bad wire, installing new skf bearings, lm335 sensor and new 12ga wire. I will use either 4mm or 5.5mm bullets on the power wires but what do you think about using a 6-conductor cable with RJ25 terminal for the hall and temp sensors? I don't like the bulky cheap chinese connections

RJ25 connections dont like vibrations. You'd need to plug it in then glue it for a semi-reliable connection. Even then, you still couldnt trust it on rough terrain. I'd personally look at the smaller waterproof plugs like the HiGo which is nearly the default for alot of ebike kits (it's quite expensive though).

Nope.
Just building in a recurring PITA.
The nice thing about plain old JST's is that you just slide the pins out of the shroud so you can pull the wires+pins through nut, washer, etc for motor service. Everything just clicks back together.

yea that would be a PITA. I've ordered an assortment of JST SM connectors to build my project. Thanks for the input
