..................................................


but nah what i was looking for was mirrors similar and in the same location as the one in your avatar.
but you heading down the right road with the bullet style

[Bezman]

those fender mounted mirrors are hard to see out of I personally find, but they look correct though i must admit, we'll see when they arrive.

I got the 280ZX struts today, they are HUGE in comparison to the 1200 units.. but thats a good thing.

my dog approved them and said she'll me help disassemble them later.

[TriniGT]

We have a very similar tastes, those were the mirrors I was after for the 1600. I may dive into a 1600 project later on but want the S14 on the road and the GTT sold first. Then eventually somethign can happen.

[Bezman]

was too dirty to take photos of the strut tear down and already packed up for the night, but she's coming together nicely. will post pics of the torn down struts tomorrow

Good stuff should be sweet.

[moti]

so no 13'' wheels will fit on those 300zx hubs. i reckon you will be going for 15''s as you stated earlier.

what kinda booster/m-cylinder will be supplying those calipers?

[Rooki3]

damn sweet, plan on keeping it 4 door, or some cosmetic work?


*i want ah 1200 for drift now, but no no no*

[Greypatch]

looking good man

[Monk BANzai]

Got some 280ZX front struts, hubs and brakes!!! Now i can do my coil-over conversion!
http://datsun1200.com/modules/mediawiki ... Strut_Swap

Parts needed:
Ground Control Coil-over Kit w/ 200lbs Springs (Stock is 90lbs max recommended is 250lbs)
Cusco Top Mount Camber Kit
Adjustable Lower Control Arms (Supposed to use 180B stock ones, but I'll try S13 Adjustable)
120Y Sttering Knuckles and ball joints (will buy new)


should look exactly like this when complete (before painting)


I'll be using R32 Aluminium 4 piston calipers at some point, prob with 280-300mm disks, but for now i'll use the 280ZX massive one piston caliper and 10" vented rotors.. the 280zx struts and brakes actually allow you to run deeper offsets in the front and wider wheels as it brings in the track a bit.. made really good progress this month, will have allot of parts to install soon and then its off to the body shop

My front splitter (shown above) is in louisiana by a friend awaiting my newest additions

New Datsun 1200 wide Fender Flares and the front splitter i have is similar to the one above so it should look pretty tough with some wide wheels and deep offsets

the place i got them also sells allot of really cool 510 and 240z parts:
http://classicdatsun.com/

Also collecting my custom made 3 core copper radiator today too and will be installing that later today.

getting closer to my goal of looking like this photoshop mock up I did.. then off to paint

Once i get all the parts together over the next few weeks it should not be long before ya'll see me start to show up at a couple solodex events spinning out

this is my bi-weekly 'I HATE YOU BEZ" rant......

some photos before she gets FAT

this is showing the fitment of the front lip, I was a bit worried at first, but after drilling the holes and bolting it up, its snug and feels very firm, want to put a skid/aero plate below it.
