between a ceffy and an S13???

does anyone know for certain or have a list of stuff that is??

a better description that "suspension" too :D ie. tie rods, castor arms, coilovers will fit etc

cheers

Stock S13 susp. will drop the cef 1.5 inches (or something like that) due to it's weight and the like...

coilovers fit, the ONLY thing you must do with S13 suspension is the upper bushings are offset on an angle, while the A31 bushings are inline

for example, if you had the two suspensions lined up with the bottom "o" rings facing the same direction, (O = bushing and X = bolts to the car) they would looke like this

X X

O(a31) and O (S13

X X

this is fixed by loosening the central bolt and swiveling the bushing, then slotting it into the A31 then redoing it up (if that makes any sense, i hope the dogpoo diagram i made makes sense and doesn't come out muddled up on the site...)

OK so it muddled up and now makes NO SENSE whatsoever, THAT'S IT I'M NEVER POSTING EVER AGAIN!!!!

i used S13 front seatbelts in my cef as mine were stuffed... so i guess they fit.

* Coilovers are the same

* front brace are the same, but rear is same as R32 is the strut top holes are different rotation (as per Mr Eps screwed up diagram), or S13 ones can be redrilled to fit

* front brakes and stub axles are the same as SR20DET S13 (ie woeful)

* front lower control arms are the same

* front castor arms are the same

* all rear arms are interchangable.

* engines are interchangable (well, SR into my Ceffy seems to fit anyway :cheers:

I have heard that the swaybars are same as either S13 or R32.. I'll have to try my spare S13 ones to check

I have a cef and 2 x s13's at home, so finding things out like this is pretty easy for me.

Seats are the same rail design as R32 and R33.

JK

You sure??? Cause I have some mighty big holes around my rails, and I have R33 seats in there. And the r33 rails dont look as if they are in the stock holes.

    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
    • Maybe SAUNSW could see howany members would do a motorkhana day if Schofield's is still available for a reasonable price...
    • Skip the concrete, we just need to smooth a field. Mark knows how to drive a grader Duncan   I reckon 100x100 flat area for skid pan style, and then some sort tracks for rally... Duncan's already got a rally car on the premises to...
    • Well, yeah, the RB26 is definitely that far off the mark. From a pure technology point of view it is closer to the engines of the 60s than it is to the engines of the last 10 years. There is absolutely nothing special about an RB26 that wasn't present in engines going all the way back to the 60s, except probably the four valve head. The bottom end is just bog standard Japanese stuff. The head is nothing special. Celicas in the 70s were the same thing, in 4cyl 2 valve form. The ITBs are nothing special when you consider that the same Celicas had twin Solexes on them, and so had throttle plates in the exact same place. There's no variable valve timing, no variable inlet manifold, which even other RBs had either before the 26 came out or shortly afterward. The ECU is pretty rude and crude. The only things it has going for it are that the physical structure was pretty bloody tough for a mass produced engine, the twin-turbos and ITBs made for a bit of uniqueness against the competition (and even Toyota were ahead on the twin turbs thing, weren't they?) and the electronic controls and measuring devices (ie, AFMs, CAS, etc) were good enough to make it run well. Oh, and it sounds better than almost anything else, ever. The VR38 is absolutely halfway between the RB generation and the current generation, so it definitely has a massive increase in the sophistication of the electronics, allowing for a lot more dynamic optimisation of mapping. Then there's things like metal treatments and other coatings on things, adoption of variable cam stuff, and a bunch of other little improvements that mean it has to be a better thing than the RB26. But I otherwise agree with you that it is approximately the same thing as a 26. But, skip forward another 10 years from that engine and then the things that I mentioned in previous post come out to play. High compression, massively sophisticated computers, direct injection, clever measuring sensors, etc etc. They are the real difference between trying to make big power with a 26 and trying to make big power with a S/B50/54 (or whatever the preferred BMW engine of the week is).
