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

    • Depends on the year/model - mine is the version of the N55 which came with an e-gate however the "PWG" (pneumatic wastegate) versions actually can also do this.  They use a vacuum setup to "pull the gate open" against the spring instead of "push it closed" like conventional wg setups.   This naturally means they can actually control boost down to a very low level/just open the gate if they want to.
    • They have e-gates. At cold start they have the gate fully open to heat the cats faster. Then during cruise as mentioned fully open wastegates reduce exhaust pumping loss. 
    • Ill stick with my black Friday sale pirellis.  They were the factory option and a damn good price when on sale.
    • Hi Tao. My dump was ground out to provide clearance over the used swing arc. But when the clip fell off, the flap was free to travel too far. Got stuck. That's all. There's decent preload too. You may remember that I asked for a low pressure actuator because I wasn't able to tune the car immediately, and a proper actuator probably would have left the car undriveable. Or at least barely safely driveable. But it hasn't been an obvious problem in terms of the gate blowing open under normal use. Well, maybe it has. The turbo is quite laggy compared to stock - so an actuator upgrade will be done first after the supporting mods are done and it's dyno'd to stop it pinging. Hopefully the gate has actually been lifting early. If it has, it has been necessary for me anyway, because as I said earlier in this thread, I had to back off the ramp allowed by the boost controller, to stop it pinging. I might have been in a bit of trouble if it hadn't been as slow to build boost as I have found it. In fact - given that I will get it onto the dyno soonish - I think I'll order an actuator from you pretty soon, so we've got it there if it is clear that there's no point continuing to try tuning with the low pressure one.
    • I've always wondered why my brothers BMW is louder in Eco mode. Do they have e-gates from factory?
