R34GTT-R Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 I used S14 front hubs and carriers, S14 Four spot calipers and discs. Got all that for $400. Moog ball joints, $150 delivered, I think you can use S14 lower control arms but mine were bent. And just bolted in a complete R32 rear cradle.

The size of the bolts where the strut mounts to the carrier are different on S15 also, S13 style shocks might not have enough meat to be drilled out 2mm. If you use a R32 GTS-T rear cradle the handbrake is as simple as clipping the cable back on. You will need a bigger master and a double diaphram booster I think.

juiceman Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 S13 struts can be redrilled, if done properly, its safe. Its common practice to do so as the s14. s15 struts are longer. You can either use a 14mm drill bit or a 9/16". If you can find them seperately, its possible to just press out the ball joints for the knuckles, and use the matching ball joints, as said before s14/15 are different. You will need the new master with the 32 rear brakes, and possibly a new booster, although it might not be worth the hassle, what has the ceffy got on the rear atm?

cefiro Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 If you buy 300zx tt spindle and hub from a wrecker, the hub bolts straight up to the S13, then just bolt on the handbrake, and rotor and caliper. Also notice from abservation that R32 GTR hubs looked identical to the 300zx. Can be done for about $300-$400. Also need to get brake booster from 300zx or R32. Here is a good website. http://www.sportcompactcarweb.com/projectc...scc_projsilvia/ Also I think the R32 front calipers are much better than the S14/S15 from memory. Aslo check out Nissansilvia.com.au Had a lot of probs with mine as I have nismo lower controll arms so I was wondering what the hell it had all come off, but seems sorted now.

cefiro Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 hey guys am in another dilema, thought my rear was a 300zx, and as I have the whole thing appart I need to get some info to grab the parts to change the hub. The 300zx is too large for the axle and just rotates over the spines, coulld it be an R32, does anyone know if they have a smaller axle. it does have the drum hand brake as well???
