Full set of five wheels from an XM/XP Falcon. These bolt straight up to the standard four-stud Datsun pattern, and are a different design that clears some of the larger brakes.

They will clear 200B brakes no problems, but please note they do not clear S13 CA brakes (although they may if you do a tiny bit of grinding on the edge of the caliper).

These would owe me about $250 along with my 180B hubcaps. I've also had the junk old tyres removed from them so you can give them a quick hit with a spraycan and get some whitewalls fitted up.

LOCATED IN BRISBANE

$200 no offers, pickup only.

So anyway if someone has 200b brakes and wants steelies that clear, then I have a full set of five.

While they clear 200B brakes, they don't clear CA S13 brakes and they also out of interest don't clear R31 rear discs as I tried that as well.

should clear s13 set up

nope :(

s13 will fit with certian steelies, should fit with xp falcon sttelies

nope :(

id stay with the s13 set up- much better braking performance if you want to keep 13's

nope :(

Car was build ~12 months ago, and is from North QLD, so don't imagine it would be particularly well known.

Yes, stock open diff... holding up fine so far... no grinding noises or anything! I have an R31 diff that I'm cutting down to go in shortly, just gotta finish my cooler mods & new piping first.

It was still wheelspinning a tiny bit even with the guys in the boot. The tyres on it are absolute junk, and the lack of an LSD doesn't help things.

The wonders of the internet!

Picked up a set of five original XM falcon wheels. The guy is building a 'bash car' for a charity run and has upgraded to 5-stud brakes/diff and had them lying around.

Less than a hundred bucks for a set of five so can't complain. Hopefully you blokes are right, and they clear my brakes!

About time I posted, I suppose!!

Recently bought this 120Y with the CA already fitted, but have been making some upgrades & improvements! The conversion was done well but a few things were a little agricultural for my liking, so I'm sorting these out bit by bit. I'm also changing the stuff I didn't like to make it into "my" car.

Currently the details are:

1978 Datsun 120Y 4d Sedan
CA18DET / Haltech / GT28R / 5sp
Stock 120Y open diff
252rwhp @ 16psi
13.5 @ 109mph (2.5 60ft)

Absolute hoot to drive, good on fuel as well. A few pictures, for anyone interested.

Summing up my traction issues with this diff/tyre setup

Currently making improvements to the and intercooler intake piping, shortening an R31 diff to fit, and completing upgrades to the fuel system. Hoping to be back out at the drags soon to crack a 12 on this turbo.

After that, am planning a larger turbo and built motor, but one things at a time!!!
