I reckon it l...

It's not that hard apparently, I did a small writeup on my site for it that might help -> http://www.datfusion.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=92 A guy posted on datsun1200.com that he used a complete 510 crossmember and arms in his 120y in the USA, all bolted in (unconfirmed though). It does sound p...

I was looking at pictures of dans rear caliper mounts, on his old 510. I don't really like the whole welded thing. I might look into making some out of really thick plate, and having the recess for the caliper milled into it. BUT, if you're sending stuff over Martin, whats the availability of R30 c...

The 6 bolt flanges should bolt to all other model (s13, s14) 6 bolt...

I was just about say I'd ship you a pair for cheap, but then I checked the datsport website and they are only charging $36 for a pair of mounts, i'm wondering if this is a typo? http://datsport.com/Rear_brake_conversions.html

Any updated pics of the rust repairs?

I'm currently learning what pain staking and time consuming process prepping a car for paint and making it straight. I bought a 1600 with a mate in the hope of putting a quick coat of paint on. Unfortunately the paint on mine is cracked, which means just doing a light sand isn't going to cut it, I'v...

This may help with wheel names and searching of jdm styles -> http://www.ratdat.com/?page_id=101

I reckon wait around for right jap sec. Although the new school dish ones look ok, the jap ones look 100 times better.
