from memory i think you use the L28 crank, L20 rods and pistons depending on the size of your cylinder bore diameter.

i could be wrong, so dont take this as gospel. i will be expensive, but very cool, original and fucking awesome in the ways of old school JDMness

A L31 will cost a lot of $$$. Probably cheaper to build a turbo L28.

WHOA!!! Heaps of mix n matching to be done there i see but i guess thats what happens when you try be different . Also are you keeping the factory steering box or converting it to rack?

bugger swapping to a rack in my opinion. i an sticking with the box and would only change if it crapped out

True, i just dont like the feel of the sloppy box .

As for doing the subframe swap i had a close look under her big ass today and no mount point for subframe so maybe some cutting/welding/drilling involved as i ain't keeping that dirty rear diff.

fair enough mate, have you thought about maybe using a solid rear axle from an R31 skyline? pretty solid diff with factory disc brakes. may be worth a look

Hmmm yeah maybe if i could not manage to swap to a IRS, only reason i really want to go that way as there is a lot more adjustment. Really i need to see the underside of a IRS C31 to go from there.

here are some photos of my rear setup man. hope it helps

Cheers for that man. Im pretty sure mine aint got any of those mount points so im thinking i will just have to upgrade to somthing from a R31 with disc rear end. BALLZZ!

shit..exhaust look like it hugs the half shaft
