tez240k Posted December 16, 2012 Share #1 Posted December 16, 2012 How do you think these would go? http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com.au/viewitem?itemId=181041321107&index=0&nav=SEARCH&nid=14494925318I was given supposed s13 coilovers to transfer to mine but I went down to datsport and they told me the ones I have wouldn't fit...Has anyone done a coil over conversion and is it difficult. I have the larger diameter 240k brakes. So was looking at the hilux/magna setup. I've read a couple threads on it but none were a straight answer on what caliper and disk off what model etc.Cheers Terry Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/45167-coilovers-and-brake-question/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
uras1 Posted December 16, 2012 Share #2 Posted December 16, 2012 yeh s13 wont fit because of different nuckle design. i bought a otomoto sleeve kit but haven't done anything to it yet Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/45167-coilovers-and-brake-question/#findComment-409300 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tez240k Posted December 17, 2012 Author Share #3 Posted December 17, 2012 It was meant to be just the threaded sleeve but still didn't fit.I'm keen to try a sleeve kit seems like a cost effective coilover. But I'd like to upgrade brakes too Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/45167-coilovers-and-brake-question/#findComment-409346 Share on other sites More sharing options...
uras1 Posted December 17, 2012 Share #4 Posted December 17, 2012 you can get a rx7 conversion adapters with vented disk to suit for around 20ishk of yahoo and the calipers can be had here for 100~200. this is the path im goin but you need at leat 7.5 j wheels but can run 14's still unlike some other conversions Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/45167-coilovers-and-brake-question/#findComment-409347 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noddle Posted January 4, 2013 Share #7 Posted January 4, 2013 They look good nod, what are the details of your upgrade?Hi, You will need the 240K late-model struts (1975+ ?)1994 Toyota 4 Runner Calipers - S13WB type - suits 25m disc - 4 x 45mm pistons ( pads are dba 1149 )Mitsubishi Verada / Magana disc (dba part no. 425), center hole needs to be enlarged from 69mm to 73mm, mine were blank slotted rotors - specially orderedUse a 2mm washer between caliper and mounting ears on struts, to move the caliper inbound a small amount ( to clear my mags )there is a spacer between the rotor and hub, I think it was a 3.4mmI'm running a 7/8 master cylinder, with a larger booster than what was on the coupe, it's off a '73 4 door 240K, but is smaller than what on a 4 door '77 240K, The peddles feels good..I think that was all..Nigel Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/45167-coilovers-and-brake-question/#findComment-410822 Share on other sites More sharing options...
fraz Posted February 17, 2013 Share #8 Posted February 17, 2013 Sorry to butt into the conversation but I also have a question relating to suspension setup also.Does anyone know if this setup will fit, or how much modifying it would need, is to suit a datto 1600.Front - height adjustable coilover kits with king springs, vented rotors, 4 pots, braided lines, camber tops, adjustable lca's, caster, heavy duty sway bar.Rear - Seam welded rear cross memeber, heavy duty rear sway bar, disc brakes, lowered springs and kyb struts.A bit of it is maddat stuff apparently need to find more info out, but if means need to change too much I won't go down this path.....Cheers!
