cheers lads.

Shaun will that be low enough? Its just that i see you can't lower the bottom spring platform anymore, hopefully it won't cause a problem.

if it causes a problem i'll just use 7 inch springs instead of 9 inch ones, they are only £30, so it won't break the bank, 6 inch threaded tube was all that rally design had, and to be honest, i don't think i would of been able to press the tube down any further, i was all on getting those on.

Excellent - They do look fantastic mate! - Don't forget yer ol' mate Den too once you've cracked it all please! :p

Seriously though, the thought of Coilovers on the Silvia is HIGHLY appealing... :)

don't worry den, as soon as i've sorted the spring height situation, then i'll start on some for you mate.:)

I'd try to use S13 coilovers with S13 hubs if I was you.

This then opens up many brake options as well.

i think me and den should be ok with the z32 calipers for now, at a later date i'll get some bells made up, so that we can use larger front disc's.

Oh, I was reading on SXOC that the S13 people use the Z32 calipers on the standard 22mm without the pistons popping out. Therefore no spacers are needed

EDIT - Swear filter amendment

thats good to know mart, but i was thinking more in the lines of using larger diameter disc's, mine feel great at the moment with zx calipers and i'll be putting the grooved disc's on as well, i've got the grooved ones on the rear and today i've fitted new front bearings and fitted the grooved disc's to the coilover set up, i've also bought new ball joints, so what i've done is use the lower arms off of blue one, so that i can get them sand blasted and painted, fit the ball joints, then i'll order the poly bushes for them, thats the only ones i ant got, so when it come to fitting, i'll have all the bits ready.

Well the Z32 calipers are designed for 280mm discs. The S12's are 274mm, so there is little difference other than the thickness. The thickness will increase the time it takes for heat soak to effect the stopping potential.
