  • S13 susp. in R32

    What are all the benefits?
    from the information i've gathered, you can go lower, fit bigger wheels, and the uppercontrol arm doesn't bang on your inner fender?
    What needs to be done to put it in? what all needs to be changed?
    I will be low low btw.
    Thanks in advance!

    Eric. Learn from Scumbag



    Read page 7 and 8 and then read his blog. He doesn't go into crazy detail, but it will give you an idea of what you need to do.

    All the mods have to be done to the front. as the rear is pretty much identical

        I have no idea if you're talking about front or rear.

        and I don't know anything about the front.

        but the rear is exactly the same as an S13/S14.

          Everyone knows the rears are the same.

          Hes talking more specifically about the front. Cause its a drift car. and he wants to go super low on his 18's. with the front camber adjustments the way they are on the r32, they make it a little harder to go lower

            I dont get why people always need to go super low ass. Its just stupid. Looks dope but really, the car drives like shi*. Wont track well at all and Alberta doesnt even have roads for that.

            But if you do it... let us know how you went through. It is a better design, I just think 9.9X out of 10 its unnecessary. I've drifted super low ass R32's and reasonable height R32's and its night and day. keep the geometry as best you can or buy the driftworks hubs to help out with low shi*.



            If you like the super low look, buy a kit and keep the suspension where it needs to be.

              s14 rear struts are gangster long compared to S13 as well. They wont work, even more so if your going low. If you like low, dont forget to keep the rear travel at a reasonable height. Lots of guys cut out the top of the rear strut perch and raise it a couple inches to get more travel out of the strut. If you go with your plan, that would help the life of your struts for the rear.

                Well, Eric aka Drades. Is now in BC, more specifically the island. So he doesn't have to worry about alberta roads. haha


                He doesn't really care about handling.

                Honestly, how his car sits right now is perfect. No need to go lower. Not sure how the front is (if it rubs or not).

                But i don't see the point in going through all that work to convert it. If your going 17's maybe you would want to convert it to go ever lower. But 18's look good and they fit good

                  I'm sorry, but that just sounds dumb


                  Our roads may be better than some parts of AB, but still ain't good.

                  Why make your car less of a car? it's meant to be driven, not pussied around town whenever roads have a dip or bumps on them.

                  Bottom out, bend chassis, crash, gg qq.

                    LOL. Your not sorry.

                    Pussied around. Yeah cause it takes a ***** to drive a low car like that and scrape all around town. You make no sense


                    People will drive their cars how they want. Don't tell someone that how they are driving their car is dumb. We don't try to hug corners. We slide them. For us. our cars are an extension of ourselves. We like our cars low.

                    If you don't. Thats ok. Cause a lot of people don't

                    Read the OP's post

                    I WILL BE LOW LOW BTW

                    If you don't got anything useful to say. Why say anything at all?

                        Sounds like a quote from Tokyo Drift...
