the coilovers onb my r33 are rooted (just bought the car) and I was planning to get new ones and wanted them camber adjustable. I was doing background reading on drift sus set ups and I saw something about skylines and supra having a different front sus arrangement than, say silvias. It says it would have an upper camber arm? or something. So I checked and found you can change this for some kind of camber adjustment but then got confused. DO I need camber adj coilovers AND that upper arm? or just normail coilover and the adjustable arm? or what? ideas

Also, while Im on it, im planing to drift the thing a little, what spring rate is advised. I was seeing 8 and 6 as a common rate. is this good?

ok thanks all

right cool. Did you see a solid difference in handleing for drift when you changed to them?

I also heard roumer that you can just change the tie rods? (i forget just now exactly which rod) and that would also do it?

      If there's nothing else I can do I'll probably do something like that Someone on the internet said that ca20s and ca18 engine blocks are the same and that you can use a ca20 engine block and put ca18det parts to make a ca20det Do you think this is possible or will it damage the engine?

      Yeah, I did some research and found out that some things are different.

      Makes sense, thanks! Consider me very impressed. And I very much appreciate the effort in documentating all of it. You'd be surprised, or maybe not, how many people this reaches who search for things online. Anyways, I shall continue to read all of it, understand maybe a quarter, and hope that some of it sticks if I ever end up in a situation where it's relevant

      'Did' work on them is more accurate ~ on the R31 Skyline forum, you can spot me as 'Solder'... I've written quite a bit about the 4R01 boxes there, and I ended up reverse-engineering the older TCU type operations, so we could fudge a custom TCU to pull off other tricks...and like all things, when you do it a lot, see the failure patterns, have to find parts etc etc, your head ends up filled with whys and wherefores... there was a reason Nissan went with these in more than 60models over 16+ years... all in all, the JR401E based design is an interesting study, as Nissan changed things over the years in a never ending battle against them lunching on themselves <grin>...by the time the RE4R01A rev.C came out (often referred to as RE4R01B), they'd more or less perfected the design...
