actually another question i just thought of is are 280zx strut conversion into 1200 better than stanza strut conversion into 1200 and if so how?

Is it? Fark! Maybe there is some way to do it. I'll have to grab a z steering arm when im theiving your 260c hubs and see if i can make it work somehow.

I can fit 15's over the wilwood setup according to the blokes who make it, he reckons some 14's fit too, thats not coming until its atleast done a few years racing and I decide to build the L24 turbs.

17's are gay.

Heres a pic of a stanza strut,





280zx strut

15s over a 330mm brake setup...maybe when the caliper isnt there, you would only have about 330 mm or room inside a 15
i know the 290s on the rear of mine only just fit. might fit 300 ish if the disc is really offset and the caliper is really hugging the disc

also have a look at what the 1600 balljoints are like, and control arms as well...might be able to get the lower arms in or the balljoint might go onto 180b control arms which some how go in

advantages of 280zx over stanza, heaps more travel, more wheel clearance, bigger brakes

dissadvantages, have to change spring perch, dont have as much camber, need sheer load spacer???

sheer load space? sorry i dont no what that is can you please explain?

little spacer ring that goes in the bottom of the strut to locate it on the steering arm properly, used with r31 s12 bluebird and i assume 280zx struts as they have a bigger hole at the bottom of the strut

if removes the sheer load from teh 2 bolts holding the strut to the steering arm

aw right cheers pigdog

The 280ZX set-up on my coupe uses the 280ZX control arm, radius rod , ball joints , clipers and a adjustable spring perch.

The cross memeber is drilled for and welded to accomadate a spherical bearing vs. normal bushing. Radius rods are standard but new sway bar end links have been fabricated. Also the claipers needed to be milled so they would fit inside a 13' rim (requirement for class I race).
