Measurements or random trivia to offer???

nemeii · Jun 13th, 2006, 12:57 PM

hey guys im new to the nissan forums but i know a thing or two, and i have a good friend thats been coming here forever.

I was wondering if one of you gents that owns a skyline (R32 preffered) has a few minutes to lend me and could by any chance go out and take a few measurements out of their engine bay. Im working out the details on a pretty involved project that i may take part in but i want to realize its feaseability first. In my current sutuation im going to have to wait about 4-6weeks before i have a skyline at my disposal to utilize as an example.

Also if anyone happens to know a bit of trivia on nissan cars and frame based similiarities; specifically im looking for :
S13/ R32 front end main frame rail location similiarities
If they share steering; linkage and hardware mounting points. (rhdS13)
Dashboard sizes or anyone that knows if they are interchangeable?
If anyone happens to have a decent condition skyline(R32)rear clip(trunk back)
Strut tower/ Suspension similiarities between the S13/R32

If someone is able to get a few measurements for me i will post a few pics of where i need specifically, i'll check back tonight on this thread. thanks a bunch for any help guys.

P.S.- who has a Red Skyline GTR in London? or had one in Feb.?

There are no similarities at all between the two models except for both being made by nissan.

Are you looking to mount an rb26dett into an s13?

nah thats been done, this project is quite a larger bite to digest should we (my associate and I) decide to launch it. Unusual though, I have received mild information contrary to your statement about *any* compatibility between the models, though im not doubting you, i wish other people would chime in though.

(i dont mean mechanical similiarities, i mean frame location, suspension location, etc.)

thank you for the input, its appreciated.
