bolt spacing is 100mm

the skyline brakes can fit behind 15s with ease(in certain wheels) with the 296mm discs in a 200b strut based setup

very much doubt 13s would fit

Open in new window

height adjustable in the strut foot ?? looks like a very nice and well thought out/developed front end
height adjustment in the foot of the strut would be a big benifit over the standard coilover setup ... being able to preload the springs and still adjust the height of the ride ...

Nick you fried bud, S13 still has 114.3 bolt spacing, same as Galants of the era till they went all whatever later on. I was looking at the first pic and surley 13's could fit over that?

Height in the foot and pre load on the strut nuts.
In saying that, if you adjust the pre load height you can change height slightly due to the spring tension increse.

I also have good travel in the strut, and the ISC's have 32points of dampening adjustment.
Normally ISC's are used in drift cars, but atm they sell them with what every spring rate your after aslong as its 2,4,6,8,10,12,14kgs for no added charge.

Please note i have no business interest in ISC, just found there products to be very good for bang for buck.

nice setup. only thing is that is obviously widens the track if it takes 7's with a p27 to get them close to the gaurds.
I appluade the conversion, however i will be sticking to converting my kb110 struts to s13 brakes and then the strut to height adjustable.

some 13's will fit. here's a pic of my old 13*7" superlites on Craig's old turbo sedan with S13 strut conversion.
http://datsun1200.com/modules/myalbum/photo.php?lid=4867

From memory (and I might be wrong as this was about 3 years ago) the brake bleed nipple might foul on more positively offset 13" wheels.

this strut conversion results in a wider track than the Stanza conversion too.

it's already in the wiki (although the pic is all wrong!). Craig used R31 Skyline catsor rods.
