    Seeing as someone has already dug this thread up, another question. what are the options for Castor rods on S13 LCA's on an AE86? are the stock AE86 ones a good option?
    forgive me if i'm missing something, just haven't really seen much info around on this.

    Thanks.

    if you use toyota castor rods you will have to redrill one of the holes on the lca. if you use nissan (aftermarket) castor rods you will have to modify, more extensively, the castor rod bracket.

    fuck ! laptop died mid write up .


    for all your information this is a much simpler conversion than made out to be it requires minimal mods and does change the geometry but not in a negative way as all the die hard fans state . i will post a write up from my other computer when i get time .


    basically all you need is lock spacers +25 mm and slightly longer tie rod ends ke70 rod end taper matches s13 hub taper . simple .

    and if your going to run sr20 you can even use an sr cross member in a ke70 slot the rear holes and mod rack mounts or modify s13 power steer rack to suit ke70 .

    ill post in more detail later . sorry guys or pm me with questions

    barely, think they will be on an angle iirc, especially more so with the mx62 arms.

    i dont think you need a new master cylinder, i have done this conversion on several coronas and a couple corollas all sr20 brakes standard master was fine.

    for those wondering about the castor rod dramas, i did a conversion using R33 GTR castor arms, where i sourced 5mm plate, bent it to a 'U' and drilled a hold through the top end and opposing ends and used an M12 & M14 bolts, tacked two 2mm thick washers to the end and copied an aftermarket 86 castor rod bracket essentially.

    IE:

    or you could ditch that crappy design and cut the guts out of the castor arm bracket and drill four holes and pay less for better castor arms that'll suit the car/allow for more lock (unlike the 86 ones.)
