Newbie 4 Door

[LRyder]

Hey Guys and Girls.

Just about to pick up a stock r32 4 door. Mainly gonna be used as a drift pig, but still streeted. Just my main question is what are the major aftermarket part differences with the 4 doors.

I am building this car on the cheap, and looking at ebay, wreckers, and forums for parts. And wondering will normal r32 parts fit straight in. Like engine, suspension, or what ever you have had problems with because you drive a 4 door I would love to no. Especially so I know what I am getting into.

Any advice, help or starting points would be much appreciated.

Cheers.

hi mate good choice on car, the right work an you'll hav a nice car

but yeah well lets see i hada 32 4dr once an ther pretty much an identical setup to the coupe except for the obvious like panels (exterior in general), windows an parts of the interior. All suspension engine an driveline are pretty much the same but not sure about the tailshaft as been a sedan i didnt know it it was longer or not. theres not much else i think i can raise as differences about the 2 cars that i think will concern you too much but if theres anything else you wana know imsure me or others will help you out

R32 sedan and coupe driveline is the same. side skirts, rear bumper, bootlid, tail lights/reverse lights are different thats pretty mucg it, plus the interior as mentioned.

Thats really good to know.

So all engine mods are the same?

Also was wondering about the brakes, are they any different being a 4 door. I am thinking about doing the r33 gtst front brake upgrade any dramas being 4 door?

Also does the suspension require different spring rates? Or can I get away with using 2nd hand coilovers out of a r32 coupe?.

A lot of my mods will be cheap 2nd hand stuff of forums and the wreckers so just sussing out compatibility.

Cheers.
