Yeah I'm with Zap... parts will be alot cheaper if you use Ford, the custom work wouldnt be much different in terms of cost IF you are paying someone.

All though if your looking at an IRS system to handle alot of power reliably, you may want to look for IRS cars that can easilly take & handle high torque, Ford not being one of those, as we all know.

Hehe :) You guys kill me.

Reason I want to use the GTR IRS is for reliability with 450-500rwkw. Ford IRS = nogo.

Plus, my UTE only has 10k on the clock - virtually brandnew, and I have a G6E sedan, so not another car - luv the UTE....except the live axle of course....

Thanx for your input though!

Soz Dags, I'm a Ford boy - luv the Expensive Daewoo though, but not enough to trade my Ford for.....

Hello Guys,

After careful deliberation with myself, and some discussions with Simon Gishus over at Nizpro, I decided that I will go ahead with fitting an R33/R34/350Z IRS to my UTE.

Most of the work I will do myself. This will be a slow process, as I will need to get my hands on a 2nd hand suspension, and will do all the prep-work to it, like fitting brakes, cleaning/powder-coating, overhauling the diff, correct crownwheel/pinion/fitment of new bushes/et al before stripping my UTE to built the cradle.

I also need to source the correct Ohlin rear shocks, and make the 1:5 rocker arms for the shocks.

I will start a new thread within next few weeks, and will post a detailed log of my progress, should anyone be silly enough to attempt this :rofl:

Br,

Beanie

Thanx Pat, will keep your kind offer in mind. As with most mechanical mods, one can never do everything by oneself.

Witin next couple of weeks I will start assembling components, and definately shocks and bushes will be needed.

Will be in touch :)
