Im sure that the shafts fit, but the A-arms are different (sway bar mounts, handbrake cables and mounts, adjustable bits here and there) I had a few and measured them up, by eye they could be made to fit, but unsure if theres any benefit??

An entire R33 rear end would be interesting though....

yea thats what i wasnt sure about my mate reckons there abit wider as well so will push the track out.

basically my rear rotors/calipers are absolutely shagged. im looking @ using z31 disc with r32 calipers on dog legs. ive measured it all up and confident itl work, but you loose the handbrake, so thats why i was thinking change to hr a arms.

yea been thinking goin s14 rear with 33diff and shafts. just wheighing up cost @ moment. but yea would be ideal

If they do fit,(possible, they are close) the rear end goemetry will be all kinds of Shit. Toe will be different, for one, and will probably shred your tyres. The only way to make it work is to use all of the suspension, not just the arms

i run hr31 arms in my dr30 and c210. use r30 crossmember, c210 crossmember has different geometry and the hr31 crossmember is no use as the floor pins are further apart. i run hr31 4bolt cv shafts and all lines up. the inner arm mounts on hr31 have cam adjusters and is a larger size bolt so either drill out crossmember bracket to suit and use larger bolt ( ithink i used qg patrol trailing arm bolts) or cut/fit/weld adjustable bracket off hr31 crossmember. i modified r30 drumbrake handbrake cables and work fine with the inner handbrake ass. there is a gain in track around 20mm per side ithink... been awhile.

sweet ! cheers jon! maybe i will pursue it now.. i can deal with 20mm more track and the mods to the subframe,etc.. still allot cheaper than goin s14 rear end lol. have u had it on a wheel aligner or notice any other differences? car still handles the same?

Edited by ydr030

r30 and hr31 have same geometry so no different, if u try'd fitting hr31 arms to c210 crossmember itd be wack.

i also run the hr31 swaybars didnt even try the original r30 rear.

if your needing any hr31 rear end parts letme know ive got a few complete rear ends there 4.3 clutchpack, 4 bolt cv's etc

    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
    • Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car.
