im doin mine using the s15 complete setup i.e. hubs.. rotors .. calipers... uprights... before iget started... are the brake lines the same or do i need custom shit??... ummm.. just wanted to know... :s

cheers

im doing the same. full s15 - calipers, rotors, hubs, spindles, knuckles, handbrake and lower control arms...

anyone know:

a) will s15 lower control arms fit? if so benefitial due to possibley further out design?

B) handbrake cable... how to modify between a31 and s15 to fit?

cheers bigears

Pretty sure S15 lower control arms are different.

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.

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?

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.

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.

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???

just to rehash this thread...

Can i fit R32 skyline 5 stud rear hubs to the back of my ceffy, and redrill the stock rotor to accept 5 stud?

I want to do the 5 stud rear cheap as possible. i dont need the bigger bralkes but i need rims, and 4 stud rims are hard to find
