G'day guys

I am planning to buy cefiro in the future, but there are something bothering me.

I want to have better brakes and better grip.

At the moment I have aftermarket wheels off skyline with 5 stud. I really love the wheels and I would like to use them on my future cefiro.

Will the hub from s14 200 sx fit cefiro? or as s14 have 4 pot brake will the whole stub axle and hub unit of s14 200sx fit to cefiro strut and control arm?

Thanks guys

Id you want to use the S14 or S15 hubs you will need to get the lower control arm (should still be attached - much easier this way). This bolts straight up to the Cefiro mounts. Cefiro shocks will bolt straight on also, as will the caliper (der, its on the hub). Simple!

You can also use moog ball joint. And just buy the spindle and hubs and caliper and brakes.

i am trying to sell mine as I bought the ball joints and the hubs off a s14, but only ended up using 1 hub and still have both spindles, ball joints, and the calipers and rotors, and 1 hub.

If you want em make an offer

here is a site to check out.

if the stock ones are stock S13 brakes which im sure they were, then couldnt u just do the upgrade pack from g-13 garage?? its like 800 or something for R33 brakes

I emailed them 2 months ago about this, and a locker diff... Still haven't heard back. I'm sure their busy.. But not to hear anything back kinda annoyed me.

Can any one confirm the email address on the site is still correct?

I know that I can buy the adaptor for using r33 brakes but I want 5 stud as well as I want to use my old wheels (Volk TE-37 off my R33), I'd fallen in love with those wheels.

However I am not sure if the skyline hub will fit to the cefiro stub axle, so I need the information from you guys about this. If they fit it would be sweet.

I don't want to use the stud adaptor considering the safety.

yeah the hub from a skyline wont fit on the s13 spindle, you need to get new spindles, and I am not sure if the offset is going to be right if you try and bolt on skyline brake and spindles???

You got to go either S14, or buy upgrade hubs, which you can buy but very expensive, I had a look and decided not to as you only really temporarily fixing the problem.

As I said I have got all you need for s14 front except for 1 hub if you wanna buy, and I dont want much cash for them.

    • Curious to see how the SpeedTek stuff holds up
    • The holdups last year were drivetrain related. I had the car out right after getting the bearing issue resolved. Third launch and the car didn't move after releasing the clutch. It had sheared all the engagement teeth off the 1st gear.    Thankfully no other damage was done. I set an aftermarket gear beside an OEM gear and found that the engagement teeth on the OEM gear were much larger and better supported. Looking through my bin of spare transmission gears I found that there are two types of tooth on the OEM first gears - the larger tooth and the smaller tooth. It looks like most aftermarket gearset manufacturers base their design on the smaller tooth. OEM large tooth left - Speedtek, OS Giken, etc or OEM small tooth right Decided to give that larger engagement tooth a try. Pressed the ring off an OEM gear and sent it to a transmission manufacturer here in the States. They did their "faceplating" operation with my synchro ring on the Speedtek gear.   I reassembled it, took it back to the track and promptly destroyed the gear itself.  I'll rebuild this and use it as a spare - thankfully just first gear and the countershaft are damaged beyond repair. Definitely disheartening but my welded on engagement tooth ring held up!  Moved to Speedtek's dog engagement design as the gears appear to be much stronger. So far they have taken much more abuse at the track. Also scored a Stillway lockout from the Netherands for super cheap. It's for some other RB transmission so it took a bit of fabrication to fit but honestly a very easy job. I also had to heavily modify the gates as they were very different.   Then for some reason at the last test and tune a silicon coupler below the throttle blew off and took out the radiator and fan. Thankfully it was in the burnout box and not down track. This car is really beating me up - I still haven't made a pass in it. Ran it through the gears many times on the street but it keeps biting me at the track.  Currently in the process of replacing the radiator and remaking the throttle pipe to remove the coupler and use a cast 90 and a vband. I WILL get this thing down the track...
    • Covers most of the above points really. There's a few exceptions but most just see driving as an irritating but necessary task they must complete if they want to get anywhere on time. Also see it as a good time to show their awesome multi-tasking abilities on their mobile and/or doing their makeup.  
    • I don't believe I posted pictures of the second oil pump pickup I added so here they are. Data shows it gets oil pressure up to the relief pressure much earlier in the RPM. Is that important? Not likely... This was just another attempt to fix the bearing issues.   I also heavily opened up the inlet to the pump since it now had to flow oil from two pickups. I believe the diameter increased about 1/8".
    • Yes, ther are plenty of [racist statement alert] terrifying 50+ yr old ladies of a certain ethnic origin who have no demerits yet still manage to park their cars on top of roundabouts, hanging out of multistory car parking structures and other wild shenanigans. Somehow they puddle through years of driving without ever attracting the attention of the cops, yet the whole time, they are an instant away from doing something spectactularly stupid.
