hey all

im currentlly able to pick up a complete r33 rear end including subframe, axle's and diff which im hoping to use in my cefiro.

now im wondering if anyone was experience with this or now if its beneficial/possible to use the r33 subframe for increased track?

and are the r33 5 stub axle's/half shafts able to bolt up to the standard 4 stud cefiro hubs?

cheeeeers!

Sorry to bring back the old thread

but is it possible to use the r33 rear hubs/knuckle along with the axles and diff?

While still being able to use all my adjustable s13 spec arms?

I was going to stay 4 stud but wanting to go 5 stud now.

Cheers

Rear sub frame is different to r33, use the back off your ceff/r32 diff and the front bolts off the 33 diff to put the 33 diff in, the rest fits . Beware of abs and non abs diffs as they are different and your tail shaft won't fit if you try to cross between the two

I've got the diff centre pretty well sorted, I have the bolts with the bushes for the forward mount and will swap the diff cover with my r180 when I pull it out.

Tail shaft flange fit's perfectly too.

It's a non abs rear end I have sitting here too btw

I'm just in a pickle with the axles and hubs.

Basically can I use r33 rear hubs/knuckles for 5 stud conversion?

Will my adjustable s13 arms bolt up to the knuckle's all the same?

Does the R33 diff still line up?

Cos they have bushes around the 2 bolts at the front (tailshaft end)....

yep , you need the rubber bushes and bolts to suit though :) .

all the r33 stuff bolts straight on mate , like it belongs there :thumbsup: , i converted my rear using all r33 stuff (bolting it to the ceff hubs)

Sorry to go off topic here but I saw in one of the first posts that the handbrake cables will fit 33 hubs?

Is that the stock cable or do you's mean a 33handbrake cable works? I converted my 4stud with dr rears to s14 all round, but now have no handbrake cables :(

Alright awesome.

How do I go about removing the hub end of the axle?

I cant get to The four bolts holding it to the hub with a socket or ring spanner?!?

Cheeeers

      gauge needle removal

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yeah, so widen your search to any Nissan speedo first, then go wider if needed. I will say though, that there is a better than even chance that what I said first will likely come into play. They quite possibly won't come apart without damage. I tried to disassemble a stepper gauge that I wanted to repair. There was no way that needle was coming off the spindle, and I could not see how the spindle would come out of the mechanism behind. Assembled once, never to be disassembled, was my conclusion. Could be the same on the R34 cluster. Failing that - take the cluster to a workshop that specialises in automotive instrument work. There's usually at least one in every Australian city. They'll either be able to do it for you for small cost, or tell you it can't be done. It might be that "it can't be done" unless you follow some arcane procedure, including trickiness to glue it back together or something, that only experienced techs know.

      R-chassis INNER tie rod torque spec?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Well, given that I, an engineer, almost never bring out the torque wrench to tighten up chassis bolts, despite fully knowing the theory, and instead rely on feel, which I happen to know is exactly how the majority of mechanics do things, should tell you the level of actual peril that exists from not achieving exactly 88 Nm of torque. How about if I just say then that 88Nm is at the lower end of the correct wheel nut torque range? Everyone knows how to tighten a wheel nut, right? And almost no-one ever brings out the torque wrench for that task

      Don't be ridiculous. "2-3 ugga duggas or one Oof. You have to use Oof on tie rods because you can't get an ugga dugga on there." Is not helping the guy at all.
