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?!?

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.

      I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
