hi im about to do the 5 stud conversion on my 180sx. i have s14 hubs and disks, knuckle/spindel etc and z32 callipers. if i where to buy your four arm kit and lower arm front and rear kit, which do i spec the s13 or s14?? or is it s13 four arm and s14 lower arm kits i need to order? something to do with different ball joints and lengths??? please if you could clear this up for me it would be great and then i'd know exactally what it is i need to order..
cheers.................:thumbs:
 
S13 four arm and S14 lower arm yep, we always supply fittings for both ball joints with the lower arms anyway though, to ensure cross compatibility between all modifications. :)

so just to clear this up about the lower arms, will i need the s14 front and s14 rear lower arms ?
 
Yes that's fine, we include both S13 and S14 spindles in the packages, so you can order either S13 or S14 :).
 
so can you give me a price for shipping the s13 four arm kit and the s14 lower front and rear kit to co.meath, ireland please? if its reasonable i'll go ahead and order them. cheers, sorry for all the questions i just want to be sure im getting the right parts.

Hi :) The shop will let you know the shipping charge when you go to check out. I can't remember the weight of them off the top of my head I'm afraid. :).
 
well last time i ordered i had to buy the stuff then wait till you guys got back to me with the shipping cost then pay again and then the order was shipped. is there a way to do it all with one payment? if you get what i mean, like you guys dont know what i want till i order it then you have to get back to me with further charges ie shipping. that way its too late for me to decide wether to buy them or not if the shipping costs are too expensive.
 
Was that a fair while ago? Some orders to Ireland used to be complicated by different courier options, but it's all really easy now. There should be no complications at all, and your order will be shipped tomorrow.
 
well i went to fit all the adjustable arms this evening and all went well except for the rear lower arm. it wont fit at the subframe end. with the collars assembled into the bearing its 5mm too thick at both point where its to be bolted on. the sub frame is from a 180sx and the hub is s14. i asked about all these issues before ordering and was told that they were the ones to order and all the bits needed would be included.... what can i do now is it just a matter of changing the collars as all the rest seems to line up or is there more to it? if its the collars , do you have ones that will suit the 180sx subframe??
 
Hi there, your arms will have had the S13 collars in the box in a small clear plastic bag, there's two versions, one for S14 subframes and one for S13 subframes. :) They all come preassembled with the S14 ones and the S13 ones come in the bag. :thumbs:
