My old ceffy had hicas and i went through alot of trouble with front steering racks. I tried an s13 hicas rack and a s13 normal rack. In both cases the rack bolted up the same but the lines were totally different. In the end i ended up getting my old rack rebuilt

Rip out the hicas, then you can use a non-hicas S13 rack.

Fabricating new lines is easy, pay somebody.

Yep, You could possibly swap the housings over too if you really wanted, might as well chuck a rebuild kit through it at the same time though.

I think I've asked before but the answer was vague, I need a definite working solution for handbrake cables. I have a manual centre console and mounted handbrake in my laurel, I need to know what legs (front section of cables that split to 2 off the handbrake lever) and rear cables to use on my laurel. Has s14 rear hubs. Seeming as finding original ones are rare as rocking horse shit. Dunno why I threw away my old 4 stud hubs when I was cleaning my old place to rent -__-'

ok got another question. I got a a31 rb20e auto but want to get a lsd because i keep on three wheeling and gets pretty annoying. could i use any other LSD diffs from a different car mine one is a 3x2 bolt pattern

are you sure its isn't just a loose r200 (lsd) and not a r180 ( open wheeler).

with my old lsd you could turn the direction of the shafts apart by hand.

skyline and silvia diffs will fit pending abs, backing cover swaps and front diff mount bushes for the s14/r33 and up models

Edited by Dan_J

its defentaly a open wheeler! dont want to do the cheap way and just weld the deiff up. but a good excuse to upgrade the diff to an lsd. its a non abs model. i heard that s13 and r32 diff bolts straight into a cefiro ? pretty sure the r32 can, but not quiet sure about the s13 diffs

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
