is that the one you wouldn't sell me Brendan?

I know a bloke at 1200.com did this conversion under the impression that it was all going to be "bolt in". I can still recall his singnature at the time saying, "bolt on dont need a grinder" and then an emoticon having a whaaaaa.

how many years ago was that bart??? haha hmmm i dont recall this moment in recent history.

[Bartman]

6years ago I think? I remember talking to you on the phone at my old flat, and I've been gone from there almost 5 years.

Just a bit more info on this. Checking out a guys 140z from south africa (they are a 120y with different front end and come out with an L series factory), this is a pic of his crossmember, looks identical to a 510 one



Even the control arms and castor rods look identical to 510. Do the 120y's come out with the castor rod chassis bolt locations welded to the chassis like 510's?

The datsun Excellent (120y) was L powered (and had a slightly longer front from memory like the b110 one) and im pretty sur the 610 stuff bolts up - dont know where the struts etc would sit in relation to guards etc - but it would be worth a crack if you can get a hold of some 610 stuff
