I haven`t had chance to weigh up the fronts yet Martin. But I`m planning on fitting the complete s13 rear subframe, diff, suspension, shafts etc complete. I`ve been measuring up the floor pan because I`m undecided yet wether to transfer this (from the back of the transmission tunnel to the boot slam panel) or just use the strut towers and subframe pick-up points. I know that the complete s13 rear axle is a little wider, but that doesn`t matter as I will be doing some extensive bodywork (including rear arch extensions and possibly even rear tubs).
Hope that all makes sense  . Plus I`m looking at coilovers all round too.Regards, Ian.

If you use S13 aftermarket coilovers you could use S13 front hubs and ABS gubbins.
The wiring shouldn't be that hard if you can get the diags from the S13 manual (think I've got a PDF one somewhere), certainly should be something an auto-electrician would cope with. Then you've just got to work out the bits under the bonnet.

Thanks Dan, but I`ve got a full PDF version of the s13 Service Manual. Plus I labelled all the loom as I disconnected it (as well as taking loads of notes)
 .I`ve saved every single part from the s13 (including all fasteners and bolts...LOL...), so I know I have all the parts for the conversion already. I just need to make up a couple of new brake lines, which won`t be a problem, as I`ve got pipe flaring tools etc. Plus by using the complete s13 axle assembly, I can use the diff oil cooler that came off the car. Sorry to hijack the thread Rich .Regards, Ian.

I was kinda offering the Manual for Richards benefit as he'll need to make a separate loom up
 Will an S13 MC bolt to an S12 Servo and work? Is there a difference because of the ABS? Have you compared the two Ian?
