Hows everything going everyone. I'm new here and i've been curious about the R14 (AWD) conversion for a few months now. I am about to purchase a s14 shell in a few weeks and im still indecisive about what swap to do but this r14 conversion sounds like it can work in my favor since i was planning on a rb swap to begin with.I just want to know if anyone else have the setup and whats your input on this swap does anyone finds this worthy?

only a handful of guys have done this. Your best bet is to start with a GTR front clip and section in the frame rails and shock towers. Other than that the S14/R33 share a lot of characteristics including frame rail distance/spacing, subframe mounting, fuel tanks.

thats what I assumed cause of the parts bin program but according to fullrace.com I need the r32 front clip and rear subframe which makes no sense to me cause the r33 or s14 is an overall bigger car than the r32

I have a S14 subframe going in my R33 as my way of eliminated the hicas. R33 crossmembers bolt into S14 all day and 13's. The issue is the front suspension, steering and drive line. You need all the GTR front end parts including the shocktowers and you need the frame rail sections too
