BIG pain in teh ass to do do but worth it. so yeah, leave the rear brakes (if the calipers are a sparkle blue still)

I didnt take any of the brakes off the 89, but they werent sparkle blue either - maybe the paint caked off. The rear calipers worked mint though -ebrake was solid as hell. But you did rebuild them what - at least a year and half ago?

SPL Front tension rods w/brake deflector

SPL Rear Traction arm  
SPL Rear Toe arm

SPL Solid diff bushings

Okay, so not EVERYTHING.  
Missing:  
SPL lower control arms  
SPL Spherical bushings  
SPL tie rods (I have Teins)  
SPL fender brace (I have GT SPEC braces)

But those things are for the baller hardcore and not the ‘wannabe hardcore’ like me.

Hey guys i really want to make my 91 240 hatch RHD for a project, Im getting a R32 GTR after winter so i just want to make this RHD and strip it completely. I got a good price for a sr20 and front half of a 180sx. But the only thing is I dont know how to convert it lol. I got an idea but i was wondering if any of you guys would know where i can get this down or if some of you guys would be able to help me out with this conversion. I know it takes time and probably a lot of money but like i said its just something to do before i get my GTR. Please let me know! THANKS! 🙂
