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

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
