s13 brake conversion help +aus spec 86 wiring diagram
Sun, 05 December 2004 08:20
i was just wondering if anyone could help me with this conversion? I have a complete s13 front end and want to put the brake's, hubs, and struts into my ae86. From what i can tell im going to have to modify either the s13 or 86 lower control arms to fit?
Everything else seem's that it will go in ok. If i do have to modify the arms what do i do? Will the s13 lower control arms go in and just redrill the castor rod hole's? it looks posible to do that?
Any help would be great, i did do a search in the forums but to no avail.
also would anyone have a wiring diagram for a aus spec sprinter?

I have been looking for info on this as well. I was thinking of retaining the inner section of the 86 control arm and mating it to the outter part of the nissan item using a threaded adjuster. But I have seen cars with just the inner end of the nissan control arm removed and replaced with a rose joint. Either way isn't too hard, but there must be someone that has actually done the conversion that can give some input.

yeah i was hoping to have some light shed on the subject. Im wondering if you could run the ae86 lower control arm with the s13 ball joint and hub assembly on it.
or like you said a rose joint on the s13 lower control arm to shorten it as it's bout 40mm longer, would pump track out to much...
