Grendel Posted November 26, 2023 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2023 (edited) So I have an 87, that was a manual car, but I got it without an engine or transmission in it. Edited December 10, 2023 by Grendel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grendel Posted November 26, 2023 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2023 I also can't post pics here, but eventually this will be my build thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grendel Posted November 26, 2023 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2023 The plan is a 475rwhp L33, with a T56 manual Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grendel Posted November 26, 2023 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2023 I live in Chester, NH. Got this roller from Derek Lavin, who's built a few. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grendel Posted November 26, 2023 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2023 So I came here, as I decided to go with made engine and transmission mounts, instead of using stuff by my buddy Giffin. I then ran across these: https://ndd-motorsports.mybigcommerce.com/products/conquest-starion-front-subframe.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think those mounts are a great idea, but I hear there may be some issues in actually acquiring them. WELCOME ABOARD!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasQuest Posted November 28, 2023 Report Share Posted November 28, 2023 (edited) Welcome. Several people have had issues with NDD and had to be refunded. Edited November 28, 2023 by TexasQuest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoldStar Posted November 29, 2023 Report Share Posted November 29, 2023 Welcome. Yeah see that thread regarding NDD; I was able to (eventually) get a complete set of control arms out of them, but the process was borderline teeth-pulling. I really hope they get their stuff together, because I really want that front subframe for a rack conversion.

Yes the file size limit here is very small, probably to save on server costs. Imgur AFAIK doesn't have a file size limit, so you can upload there and simply put the link here.

Grendel Posted April 13, 2024 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2024 So now that I've been through the NDD ringer, but got my money back, this is my plan: I have a StarQuest cross member and an S13 cross member here. I am working with a local shop that does only tube work and has done Nissan high performance cars. He is going to make both Silvia and Star quest tube cross members that take an S13 rack and pinion. Nissan 240 SX ( S14) knuckles (God Speed SK-001-BLACK), hubs and lower control arms (God Speed AK-084 ). *GOD SPEED GSP FIT 240SX S14 KA24 SR20 FRONT ANTI SWAY BAR KIT * 2005 Cadillac CTSV front brakes - calipers and rotors *S13 HICAS rack and ends - 2.5 turns lock, to lock. *2013 Cadillac ATS steering shaft and u-joint * custom tubular cross member that moves the lower control arm mount points to match the S14 rack. (can mod a factory one, don't have to do a rack, either) *TEIN Super Nissan Silvia S14 Coilover Front Kit *Conquest upper camber plate, that takes an S13/S14 coil over. I have it all here. Of course, I am also going L33, with a turbo for 8 psi and T56.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpawl Posted November 9, 2024 Report Share Posted November 9, 2024 @Grendelhow is your project coming along? Any updates? I have friends next door to you in Sandown. What is Derek Lavin up to? Is his car for sale on FB Marketplace? Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grendel Posted January 18 Author Report Share Posted January 18 Sorry, been a bit heads down. I have the crossmember: http://greggscustoms.com/shop/product-category/starquest/ I've worked with Gregg on a few projects. Engine is built, as is the TR6060 Derek sold his car, along with a lot of other ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
