Hi guys
I brought a Datsun 1600 and hav been stripping it back to panel n paint.ive takn the hole front sub frame out and noticed that the front brakes are vented.i had a look at a old strut I had and its a solid disc so the ones must be off something else.it also looks like the bottom but that the spring sits on has been welded on.the number on side of the strut is 54303 04f02
Hope the photo comes up as never done it before.lol
Thanks james

Found some info that these may be Sylvia/gazelle S12.

take a break pad out and identify it, and do the same with the rotor and in about 5 minutes at a quality parts shop...... and you will have your answer. simple as 123

I'll have a look at my S12 parts car in a minute and see what the part number is.
