Er34 gt rear knuckle swap

I’m looking at doing a full suspension setup and before getting coilovers I thought I’d see if it’s possible to convert to the fork rear shocks instead. If I get the rear hubs from an r34 Gtt, will these fit my current hubs/the rest of my setup with the fork suspension instead of my current eyelet ones? 
 

Also on my er34 gt there is no sway bar, and if anyone has a list of the required mounting hardware that’d be great.

Why go to the effort, when you can get coilovers with the eyelet bottom end that will suit? It's the same bottom as on R32 and R33 turbos. It's not like it's kindergarten level equipment vs. GTR & GTT </flexx>.

But yes, the knuckles will swap.....not that it's needed.

      curious to know what drivers you chose and the results? quik mafs, says two 6.5s should roughly equate somewhere between a single 8" or 10" driver. i agree that IB is definitely the way to go in most cars imo.

      S13 and R32 rear suspension geometry is horrible once you lower it (which everyone does). The camber & toe out ramp is very aggressive, hence it's common for the S13 boys/girls to use a S14 or S15 subframe as the geometry is light years ahead. I'm sure the same can be done on R32s, but I don't know anyone that has done that.

      Well, of course there's something wrong with the suspension. It was like that when it came out of the factory. Nissan wanted it to ride at least 50mm higher than most of us. They wanted it to be comfortable enough that the press and user reviews didn't complain about fillings being knocked out of teeth. The marketing people wanted to be able to talk about their fantastic new 4WS system (even if it was a pointless exercise, ha! pointless! Do you see what I did there? no? oh well. too bad). There weren't any semi-slicks or semi-semi-slicks or 18" wheels. Laser pointers didn't exist, so you couldn't easily build a bump steer gauge. There wasn't any better technology for suspension bushes than squishy shit in a condom. The list goes on.

      I personally recommend not messing with factory suspension until you can clearly identify something wrong. For example I think the R33 might need some way to adjust front camber because I feathered the edges of the tires much more than the center of the tread doing some figure 8s and slalom.

      Did some baking today, managed to fit it all in the oven. Turned out pretty good. Hopefully it holds up well to a bit of tool abuse.  Popped a few pieces on to see what the colours will look like. Pretty happy with how it came up.  Now to wait for the rest of the stuff to rock up
