Hi all, I have some seriously modified front suspension in a Sprite I have (with an A12 fitted) and was wondering if anyone can recommend a place for me to take it to get it all sorted out. I need a place that can actually 'think' and 'problem solve' instead of just being able to replace parts... a bit of fabrication is going to be involved.

Any help will be great.

Matt.

hey mate, give jeff another call, and ask him to point you in the direction of his brother john taylor, he builds suspension for alot of datsun racecars and used to own penrith pedders.he will be able to help you out.

hahaha, i saw the topic and one post and i was gonna bet it was converted recommending his pal J taylor. looks like you beat him to it Kegs!

LOL ,Ha, Ha, Ha,

LOL I wonder if craig gets commission
John & jeff are both good blokes know a fair bit about datsun 1200's ect

No...I dont get commission, but John did do a ripper suspension setup for my car for a VERY reasonable price. I would always recommend ANYONE like that no matter what line of business they are in. Oh by the way, Winston Gardens Chinese Resturant's owner is Tony...he is the best restrantuer I have come across and their food is superb.

If you want johns number it is listed in whitepages.com.au under John Taylor in Mamre road St Marys. or ring Jeff his brother on 96238826 for John's #

Yet he still tells us.

It's all about cred. The Taylor bros have been representing for 1200's for 30 years now and are die hard supporters of the A series. I now live in the US and count it a real privilege to have got to know them while in Aus - and I had heard about them prior to that while living in NZ. There are good reasons why Converted recommends them and it's nothing to do with $$. It's about their philosophy and Aussie straightupness. They're top blokes who'll get your A running right and handling schmicko.

There are three suspension places I can recommend in the Sydney area.

1.East Coast Suspensions Pty Ltd

Shop 9, Auto Plaza Cnr Waratah St & Bath Rd Kirrawee NSW 2232
ph: (02) 9545 1044 Shock Absorbers, Springs & Suspension.

They are good for competition and road suspension. KONI or Bilstein.

2.Heasman Steering

463 Princes Hwy Sydenham NSW 2044
ph: (02) 9557 3739 Wheel Alignment & Balancing

They are good for competition and road suspension. KONI or Bilstein. One of the few places in sydney that modify these shocks [physical length and damping options]

3.Selby Bros Pty Ltd

32 Box Rd Taren Point NSW 2229
ph: (02) 9525 5619 Motor Engineers & Repairers

Don and son Todd, in my opinion are the best blacksmiths in sydney who make sway bars to any requirement.

Robert does A1 wheel alignments and suspension repairs.

also, dont forget Errol of datrats in melbourne for suspension components and brakes.
