are the s14 front hubs a straight fit like the s13 front hubs then ? so i'd just get the s14 hubs and coilovers ! what about track rod ends s13 or 14 ? cheers.

You're best to check on SXOC what the S13 people do to fit the S14 hub. Something comes to mind about having to use the S14 ball joint on the lower arm.

probley best i just use the s13 set up then, if i can use the s12 lower arms then it will be less messing around.

Hey I'm glad these questions were put-up as it's just what I needed to know.

So is the reae fairly straight forward with Z31 parts ? WHat have you guys been using ?

s13eater 19-11-2008 18:41

anyhow mart, hows your project going, any updates ?

Square root of fuck all. I've been distracted by another car I bought and generally been very lazy.

Haven't got a great deal left to do. Probably a weeks solid work would clear most of the things I need to do.

Diff is built up, shafts aren't done yet, engine is built, but needs valve clearances doing, manifolds fitting, water oil lines etc and then it's ready to drop in.

Then I need an exhaust and intercooler piping made up

:cool: what diff and shafts are you using ? would it fit the s12 or is it top secret lol, have you any pics to put up of the project ?

One of the engine

I'm using an S15 diff inside an S12 case. I have 2 sets of 280zx driveshafts. Now if I was using an S13 VLSD I could use the 2 short 280zx shafts in exactly the same way as you would with an S12.

But, with the S15 diff you have to use both the S15 inner shafts (not one like you can with the S13 diff), so whilst I can make one up with the shorter shaft, I will need to get a special short one made.

:cool: keep us updated.
