Yes it has been done before. I wish you were in Australia as I would take those HKS coil overs off your hands. That is exactly what I am looking for. Mind you I am like everyone else and not wanting to pay too much. Hehehehe. I will keep you guys updated.
Nearly forgot. 1200rallycar, the independant rear has been done as well using a 300zx (I think) cut done and welded onto the ass of a ute. I have seen it myself. Kev Rowley is doing all this stuff and it is registerable.
Wow this is quite a change. I was planning on running stanza struts and ca18det brakes but the brackets I had made up don't fit the ca brakes. They do fit sr20 and r32 4spots.
So it was decided why not change to complete silvia front end. That means the front of the car should end up with s13 lower control arms, r31 castor rods, s13 tie rod ends, s13 hubs with ca18det brakes and s13 coil overs. I can't wait to get it running. As per usual I am still waitingon money.
I am not 100% sure but you could try a ca18 or ca20 rwd gearbox. There is a very good chance they will fit given that the blocks are relatively similar on the ca engines.
You sure you guys aren't prawns??? How can you not know what a bombed motor is? Hehehe. It is a QLD thing. We all say it. "We are going to bomb the faaark out of that motor."
You cannot use a BOV on a draw thru supercharger setup. The reason for this is when the BOV goes off it is going to vent GAS all through your engine bay. Not good at all. As for the pulley questions you will most likely have to make up a double pulley arrangement. Check the articles section there is info in there on supercharging and turbo charging. The supercharging article by WALLY is most helpful.
Ah geez the 27th?? I forgot I am already booked in for Carnell Raceway. Heading out there for some track time. Have fun guys and take plenty of photos.
