The best part of doing this conversion is so that the corner weights of the car can be adjusted.

Hi guys, Latest up-date is a few pictures of the coilover adjustable top mounts I bought on Ebay, they require some minor tweeks to fit an S12 as they were intended for an S13.

The special top nut( 24mm AF hexagon bar showing 10mm above a 20mm long 18mm dia shaft with a M12 x 1.25 thread tapped with a 3mm 12.5 dia counterbore at the bottom) and lower bearing support ring(25mm dia outside x 20mm inside x 11mm high).

The coilovers assembled.

And finally the coilovers on the car.

Hans and Paul.

Do you do the same with the rear suspension or is it totally different?
