EOI L14 Rods (for swaps)

Well i got an old L14 thats been sitting round for years and years today. Planning to see if i can put my L16 crank rods pistons in it so i have one less engine taking up space.
So the L14 Rods will be up for sale,

Well ive kinda changed my mind at this stage.
After so much interest in just a few hours (i didn't know they were that sort after).
So i'll try for a swap first.

A: i don't know how much they are worth so can someone let me know.
B: Im looking for something thats hard to find as well so instead of cash this is what i would like to try for.

I would like to swap these for 1 Pair of R31 Skyline front struts with the 100mm caliper bolt spacing.
I would like them to have NO springs or top hats (easier to send), can have inserts and would like them to have discs and calipers must have hubs
(if anyone can be certain that the calipers are the same as Z31 calipers then they don't need to included calipers).

Sorry if it sounds like a bit of a pain in the arse way to go about it but ive been looking for these struts for ages and im sure these a few stored away in peoples sheds that they are holding on to.

If someone can even find me some R31 100mm caliper bolt spaced struts that are for sale else where i will sell these to them as a finders fee. Then i'll buy the R31 struts off that person even if its more than what i get for the rods.

The HR31 struts out of my car will probably be spare in a couple of weeks, I'm changing to S13 front suspension. They've had 280ZX spring perches welded on to them, Cobra springs & KYB inserts about 4 years ago and will have no brakes/hubs etc

Do they have 100mm bolt spacing for the calipers or 89mm?

I wouldn't be posting about them if they were 89mm, they are 100mm. I've got GTS-t 4 pots bolted to them at the moment.

I've got no use for the rods, if anybody wants them it'll have to be cash
