S13/14 front suspension conversion into Ford Anglia

[Phil Bradshaw]

Hi there I am after some advice on the feasibility of fitting modified S13/14 front suspension into my Ford Anglia 105e project. My criteria include 4x114.3 hubs and the biggest brakes possible to fit within ideally 14" alloy wheels (14x7 enkei compe 8). Can go 15" wheels if necessary. Offset around 20p. My thought is to fit the entire front suspension from a S13/14 with suitably narrowed custom crossmember and manual steering rack modified to keep bump steer under control. Aim to keep TCAs stock but modify castor rods to suit. Will run adjustable struts and camber plates.

What I need to know is the best JDM s13/14 suspension etc set up to buy. I am in New Zealand so we have a lot of JDM stuff here. Must be 4 stud/lug. Is there and easy 4 piston brake upgrade from a skyline etc that will fit 14" wheels? If so which model skyline? I know Toyotas (sorry!) but know zip about Nissan. Car will get supercharged 1600 4AGZE with SC14 blower so about 200 horse and maybe 800-850 kg. will be for fast road use.

Thanks

Phil
