1999 infiniti q45 with s14 arms and coils
 

so it turns out like most nissans that the q45 and s13/s14 parts are mostly interchangeable. so with nobody stocking q45 coils in the states, and then costing 2500+ per set, once i learned of this alternantive it was a no brainer. yokotas13 aka grant really fueled the info for this a couple years ago and i just started the process.

here is my car with jic coils for the q45

18x10 -28
18x12 Zero:eek2:

yeah i remember reading about all this stuff when i was going to buy one of these

yokotas13 wrote a good deal of info

but that guy is cheating with the driveway! loljk

nice, did you sell your old setup? cant wait to see what you got in store for us

talk about riding it till the wheels fall off, i actually used thm till 2 of the springs broke in the coils. ride was pretty shitty after that!

God I love these Q45's. Because of my desire for a luxury car, preferably japanese, I'm stuck between this model or the 94-96 model. This just made me want a 97-98 even more now.

car looks awesome. I'm stuck between this or a 93-96 Lexus LS400. There's something about the boxy style of the LS400 that looks dope.

Keep us updated!

God damnit, more of a reason to get one. :(

no cheating here. this is undercarrige ride height clearance.

Stop posting!

:(

I want a Q45 so bad. Someone buy me one.

nice nice nice nice!!! youre putting me over the edge to pull the trigger on a 03-04 m45....aaaaaargh

lol at people 3 years later finally listening to me

narrowing your track in the front with the s chassis stuff makes a HUGE diff in what you can use.
best mod i ever did on my y33

DAMN this shit looks like a built s chassis suspension! haha i bookmarked that dudes thread.

!

when are people going to swap rb26s and shit like that in these and drift them haha

yeah, i did this shit with bags on top of it like 3 years ago.
its not hard, just takes the time and parts.

and GTR brakes make a WORLD of diff on a y33

I know a guy selling a clean two tone ls400 for like 3300. Pm me if you want the info.

so the s13 arms made the front narrower? whats the benefit besides less expensive coilovers, wider wheel fitment?

more camber with slotted top holes
tie rod replacement, and angle correction options with better strength
easier to source replacement parts than expensive y33 parts.
adjustable lower control arms for even MORE camber
THe MAIN reason i developed it, was to go lower. ALL the y33 coilovers only go so low without sagging springs and killing the dampers.
I wanted to be able to tuck a 215/40/18 on a 9j tire and still drive. you cant with ANY y33 specific coils. Plus i didnt want to go with Overfenders, so after lots of measuring and checking adn stuffs i figured out that s13 stuff would all work, with mixing some other stuff in.
Most guys use s14, but i like using 13 personally. more narrow track with the s13 arms, and s13 coils are normally cheaper in japan than 14, and i found dampering on the 13 vs 14 coils in the front to my liking on CST coilovers (i tried both type)

what other benifits would you want?
:coolugh:

Planned on doing it with my Y33 but RB25DET

Oh that's so nice of you to bump a two year old thread just to tell us that you HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING.

oh, and that the RB25 bolts right into a y33.....
why you ask?

becuase it was a fucking engine option

BOOM!

this will be my next build after the 13 is done. This shit looks hawt.

No shit is was an engine option in JAPAN on other Y33's. I'm talking about the y33 cima/Q45 that was made in the US as well it was never an engine option the only motors they had a v30det an VH41de dumbass . An the reason why I haven't done anything is cause I'm working an saving so don't try an tell me anything if you don't know my situation

^ Kids these days, no respect.

butt hurt much? jesus.

just for the record, s chassis suspension doesn't work on g50 q45's unless you want to move the strut towers back 1-2" hahaha

why did you bump the thread??? save the update for when you have something to update it with. no shame in saving up, just avoid posting without substance.

I give no respect for people acting like a douche bags. Deolio I can give mad respect too because he has done a g50 drift project. Something that no one hasn't done before which has inspired me to do the same with my y33 cima VIP drift crew rising???

Umm...you do know YokotaS13 was pretty much one of the few people in here who would know alot about this chassis since he's had this car in Japan right? You dont need to give us a damn history lesson on what engines are optional in Japan, some of us actually lived out there and have driven RB equipped Y and C-chassis.

Ahh, yes the you dont know my situation comeback.... The universal coverup for im a broke asshat, and I want people to feel bad for me. :duh:

situation is

you are a poor fuck trying to act cool.
go away

Something that no one has not done before???
