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.

keep us updated

i always wated an s-13 and i figure why not build one under my 1200, by using all silvia running gear where possible, maybe even rear end one day

that way i have a silvia but maybe 400kg's lighter

Have S13 struts been tried? I have a set of HKS S13 coilovers from my last project. I'd imagine they're too long though??

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.
