    Hmmmm this would make a BIG brake upgrade (ie 4pots R33-S14-Z32) So much easier..woh. And i get the whole staggered hub and coilover thing. Makes perfect sense. This would have to be the best brake/coilover arrangment/conversion on a 86 ever.

    ^^ good i thought i wasn't making sense!! i can't believe it hasn't been as popular in the past, it makes a lot of sense. i'm now going "lowest dicking around spec" by fitting Ca brakes so i don't have to change masters and lines and can run smaller wheels.

    Yes S13 coilover (HSD HR, thanks to Jeremy and the boys at Otomoto) and 86 camber top.

    We have the coilovers and camber tops will be turning up soon.

    Going to try the MX62 arms first, but if that doesn't work then may use S13 arms.

    Hopefully we can test fit it all in the next week or two, though it depends on work and time.

    under a grand huh, hmm i thought it may be a bit more than that, tho thats at a guess, i ASSUMED lol that the brake setup wouldnt necesarrily be all that cheap from say a wreckers, spose ive never bought brakes from them but i didnt think they would be cheap, by the time you buy the brakes, coilovers, camber tops, controll arms, rack ends, tie rods, you could easily go over that grand, especially if new, hell u can spend more than that easily on a new set of coilovers alone. second hand tho hmmmm id guess it could be done if one shops around for the deal. I cannot wait to do this conversion, tho i need money and time is money lol
    sorry for ranting on
