Hey whats up ive been a member here for awhile just dont post much. Ive had my S13 for like 3 years but have only been drivin it for about 6 months. I still love my s13 but i have an oppurtunity to get a VERY nice m30 for VERY cheap.

Im just curious... what parts actually directly fit off an s13, what coilovers fit with no modifications (300zx?) i have no clue. What car can i get a quick release for that will fit my m30. THANKS

heres the link to my vg30dett swap zerothread?id=219919but you wont find anything about the suspension in there, plus its still not complete. soon tho you've already looked in the best place to find info on the M30, f31club. you will find all you need to know there because there is no direct replacement coilovers YOU have to make that shnit fit. the S series car weighs significantly less then the M so the suspension isnt designed for the M but the chasis is close enough to make it fit. this car is going to require custom modification, because it is not a tuner like a honda where you go to pep boys and buy parts of the shelf if your going to buy the car as a project you will have to make everything fit yourself or pay alot of money to to have someone do it. if you cant do custom work yourself then i suggest you buy a honda civic.

I just finished swapping in an SR20 into my M30.

As far as suspension is concerned heres what I've done:

K-sport S13 Coilovers - Must change the knuckles and I changed my entire front to S13 parts along with the engine swap. Rears just need to drill new holes at the top of the strut for the coilovers.

-Z32 Brakes front and rear All you need are rotors, brakes and the same SS conversion lines as S13s. The rears already have the same drum setup as z32s anyways so just change the rotor and bolt up the calipers.

-5-lug swap -Front use s13 conversion hubs or same options as s13s - Rear Steal the rear hubs, companion flanges and axles from a 5-lug z31 and you're set

M30 also has the same R200 as any other nissan so the diff is swapable.

F31club.com is a wealth of knowledge on these cars.
