I was wondering if anyone on the forums has upgraded to rear independent suspension in their b13.I have a 93 se-r and the only thing that trips me out is how nissan did not put a r.i.s. on the se-r. I know that the tsuru comes with r.i.s. so I was wondering if it would be possible to swap in the tsuru's r.i.s. into a 93 b13?

What makes you think a Tsuru has a different rear suspension than your SE-R?

Have you looked under your car? All B13's have the same rear suspension.

Does your B13 rear suspension look like this (disregard the Progress sway bar)?

B13's were made until model year 94. If you have a beam axle, it ain't a B13.

Is this your car? If so, and it's got a beam axle, I'm going to need to see pics.

Yeah I 'll take some pics later and post them up is yours a 94? I think nissan might of came out with the r.i.s. in later models but it still trips me out cause my bro has an 05 spec v and it has the trailer axle as well

The picture I posted isn't of my car, but mine is a 94. Again, ALL B13's have IRS (not, r.i.s), if yours has a beam axle, you've got a Unicorn.

Weight isn't the issue. The key word is independent.

Now, how about those pics? Or at least go take another look under your car, because nobody here has ever seen a beam axle B13.
