apparently you can do s13 front conversion with lcas hubs knuckles etc. I'd use 31 lcas inch shorter. Then bolt on 33 brakes they make an s13 n 31 stop on a dime

there all pretty good and the ones you pick will depend on wheel size. e.g. bmw callipers can have 14'' rims min, volvo ?, rx4 15''min ext

I have used in my 180b 240k sedan rotors non vented and 2 spot sumitomo 240k gt calipers on reversed 200b struts.
the ears on the struts vary in length between jap and australian i believe i stand corrected if i am wrong.

Obviously I don't mate, I said apparently. The bloke who tunes my 31 had a 910 blue bird and he did the conversion. I've got a 31 I've done the conversion. Haven't measured anything up due to the fact that I have early model coilover struts. I mentioned it so that he could look further into it. The contorl arm set ups look quiete similar and I thought it might be worth a crack. I've heard people putting "late model bluebird" struts into the 180b. If you can put a s13 front end on a later model bluebird thought you could do it on a 610.

Out of curiousity what doesn't fit? Control arm width? length? sway bar links don't line up?
