0R10N Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 I hear the IRS is a right cunt to swap into the aussie spec R31s Oh, and r31skylineclub.com is a good place to start, followed by skylines AU. (ironically, SDU doesn't really factor into the equation as far as older skylines are concerned) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rxtoy Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 ah well, that was very much an 'only if it bolts in' idea so i'll throw that on the back burner. Orion, how similar is R30 and 31 suspension??? wouldn't mind some pointers on a decent suspension setup along with some lowerage. not looking to spend stupid money but if its sets me back a couple of hundred more than a kings and koni's combo and ends up looking and handling better i'd be pretty happy. cheers Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyteler Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 You seen the other 31 skidline on TM met reserve at $50 stz? Keep your eye on that, no doubt all parts usable and gives you spare set of springs for hacking up ... keeping in mind the rear springs may already have a coil off them.

T-Rex Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Your suspension is similar to mine. The whole front hub and shock can be replaced with S13/a31/c33 etc, will be doing this later on. Not sure about the rear of them but you should also be able to run the s13 etc shock but will need to change the pcd of the studs at the top. Hopefully thats all correct Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rxtoy Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 yeah, i saw that some dude had swapped cefiro stuff onto his 31 on trademe, considered it but don't want to go 5 stud, too much of a mission to convert the rear too. might have to look at 4 stud silvia though, see them at pick a part every now and then. cheers kyteler but my driveway is full celica, skyline, corona, hilux = too many cars, corona going up for sale now i've got a wof on the ute though. cheers Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyteler Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 A31's are 4stud brah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaMpylobacter Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 if a31 shiz fits them though, s14/s15 5 stud stuff should go on though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-Rex Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 S13/A31/C33 brakes=all the same shit, 4 stud vented etc. Just C33/A31 sus is a bit softer and higher etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaMpylobacter Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 yeah the struts are longer and shit. have toyed with them a bit when I had a c33. nissans rule for lego-ness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-Rex Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Yeh my brother used to run some in his C33(r32 shock s13 spring or whatever it was) and it wasnt worth it so ended up with tein's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rxtoy Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 here's the auction i was talking about: http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motor ... 065204.htm the guy actually says they're silvia hubs with A31 turbo discs, maybe turbo one's are 5 stud??? not too worried either way, will be a long way off before i convert this to 5 stud. just gathering info at the moment. cheers Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0R10N Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 A31 factory turbos are 4-stud, but the discs will be interchangeable with e.g. S14 regardless of stud pattern on hub. In the end I just went for a shortened OEM shock setup combined with some springs from japan (since NZ offerings are SHIT) and that worked a treat for the DR30.

drtydog Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 haha that turbo 31 is my mates car lol all he's done is used a31 cefiro struts and springs (compressed cobra's i believe), and used a31 bottom arms and calipers with s13 5stud hubs on the front. it's actually a bit bouncy due to the compressed springs but gives u access 2 useing a31 or s13 adjustys which would b mean lol...oh and still got the live rear axle would b alot of work 2 change to irs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fuel Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 I tried those wheels on a while ago when I first got the Eterna, they are only 6.5" wide with an offset of around +25mm from memory. Two of the rims had buckles too which he conveniently forgot to mention before I went to look at them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
