Subframe & LCA info needed
 
For my S110 project I like to know some measurements of the suspension of the S12-chassis, can anybody give me this info?

The picture below are 200SX S13 items!

Thanks a lot!

Subframe to chassis distance:
S110: 72 cm
S12: 30,5" = 77,50 cm
S13: 77cm


Subframe control arm distance:
S110: 56 cm
S12: 28,75" = 73 cm
S13: 67cm

For my S110 I'd like to upgrade the steering system to a S12 - S14 system (rack-pinion", because now the "recirculating-ball or pitman' steering system is in the car.

I've the complete S13 front suspension system including the steering-rack, but I don't think the S13 subframe can easily fit. So that's why I'd like to know the measurements of the S12 subframe. But it seems that's almost the same as the S13 subframe.

And second, I've a also a blacktop SR20-waiting to replace the L18 engine! And I know the SR20 fits in the S13 subframe...

Time to go back to the drawing table:rolleyes:

Are you sure about that 28 3/4"? Because then a S12 would have more trackwidth than the S13? :confused:
