ite fellaz
thinking about doing a suspension and brake upgrade on the 1982 gallant
i was asking around and most ppl say go with the r32 4pot with s13 coilovers

what you think, any suggestion?

so this is the list of part they said i need for the conversion

R32 4POT CALIPERS & ROTORS
C33 CRADLE ARMS
LAUREL C33 4-BOLT SPINDLE OR C35 5-BOLT SPINDLE
NISSAN SYLVIA S13 FRONT COILOVERS


what you think fellaz?
1 prob tho the s13 has a 3 bolt mount on top the gallant uses 4 bolt shock mount how do i deal with this

This is jsut a btw statement Miguel. If you're looking for 4 pot and you know for a fact the calipers will bolt on your hub.. why don't you stay with Mistubish and get GTO brakes instead. They're a common upgrade on nissans.. yeah who knew.

GTO brakes can be found more up the islands than in Trini...chk Antigua, or Bados....

locally, you can check Seenaths....i saw 3 prs there some weeks aback...
