November 11, 201014 yr Author comment_335693 The guy I brought my coupe off, said he put 200B struts from his rally car on it (which I removed), I wonder if they are the same part between the 3 cars.also, the S130 2+2 looks like it's got a thicker sway bar, I assume they are not the same shape ?, or are they very similar ? Nigel i believe they are different in very minor ways to accommodate different brakes but as far as i know all 3 of them and a few more all mount the same way. i will check if the LCA's and sway bars are the same soon Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/37583-s13-coil-overs/?&page=2#findComment-335693 Share on other sites More sharing options...

November 13, 201014 yr Author comment_335878 Iam looking for lowering coil-overs for the kgc110so for the front I can use the 280zx ones and how about the rear coil-overs ?http://www.z31.com/mods/coilover.shtmlat the bottom of that page there is one method of putting adjustable height suspension in a non coil over shock type rear suspension Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/37583-s13-coil-overs/?&page=2#findComment-335878 Share on other sites More sharing options...
November 16, 201014 yr comment_336108 i would love to see that get through engineering seriously.. would it? looks a little "unsafe" to me.. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/37583-s13-coil-overs/?&page=2#findComment-336108 Share on other sites More sharing options...
November 16, 201014 yr comment_336124 The conversion I used on QWIK was to use a z31 you can also use a r31 strut, the little difference between the two is the spacing in the rabbit ears for the brakes, the z31 will let you use the z32, r32, r33 brakes without any ear extensions. It dosen't matter if you use z31 or r31 strut you still use the z31 inner suspension, these are about 1 inch lower than the standard 240k and you can get them as HEAVY DUTY, a z31 coilover kit fits straight on them.....This was the easiest way of converting and lowering the front.....This also passes engineering, expesically if you want to use twin spot calipers......

November 17, 201014 yr Author comment_336203 i would love to see that get through engineering seriously.. would it? looks a little "unsafe" to me.. im not sure, personally i would change it a bit like weld on a better seat for the spring but the idea isn't 1/2 bad, i wish my engineering knowledge extended to car laws... :< Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/37583-s13-coil-overs/?&page=2#findComment-336203 Share on other sites More sharing options...
