    S14a rb build

    Hi guys
    So I just recently picked up a Nissan stagea rs4 with a rb25det and a manual box.... I also have a non rolling S14a
    Does anyone know if any of the parts will switch straight over on to the 14 I.e subframes, arms etc and what I'm gonna have to buy or get made to fit the rb?

    I believe the front subframe fits, the rest will be 14 running gear iirc was that Clive's shell?

    Best bet is to use the S14 front cross member and one of the proper engine bracket kits as it moves the engine back a bit in the engine bay.

    I know there is some cross over from the R33 with suspension parts but your going to have to use a lot of S14 stuff I think.

    You will probably need a greddy style inlet. I believe you will also need uprated rad and electric fans and Custom prop shaft. Mods to the rs4 sump.

    The front subframe fits a dream and will not need extra mount kits, you will need to mod the gearbox mount a little and your need a 14a wiring loom and a 33 wiring loom as the stagea has 4wd

    I used a mount kit with the 33 cross member

    If your ok fabbing the gearbox cross member just get the prop made.

    It's fairly straightforward just time consuming.

    Thanks for your advice guys looking forward to getting stuck in to the conversion, looking for an r33 front subframe as think the stag one is different. I have most of the others bits. What's the best rear subframe to use can I use a 14 Rear with all the stag arms etc as that's all the same as r33?
