yes they do.having said that,you'll probably have troubles.i know of at least one sunny with a stanza diff,& a l20b as well.it was a friends race car.the borg warner diff's from later stanza's also fit,dragongoose from qld had one in his sunny coupe.also,some stanza's have rear sway bars,grab one of those if you can find one,that'll help balance out the understeer.

b310gx do the stanza h165 bolt straight into the sunny with no mods?
i recently did some suspension work to my sunny. i put king springs all round with 30mm lowering. it rides good and is not to firm so its still comfortable. i used monroe GT gas shocks. over all the car handels much better but still has a tendacy to understeer. im going to get some pedders stabilzer bars fitted along with some polyurathane, dial in some negative camber and see how she goes then. hope to have all this done by the end of the school holidays.

ok sunny's are easy,stanza stuff bolts in easy.almost the same floorpan.
struts :- stanza struts with girlock calipers will bolt in to the sunny balljoint.what insert?go to a motorcycle shop & get some 20w30 fork oil & use that in the with the stock insert,that'll make it nice & stiff. diff :- again stanza,japanese is best,but a borg warner diff if you have to. lower control arm:- don't worry bout this,get a pair of 200b steering arms,they're offset outwards,will give you extra camber.you just need to get 180b outer tie rod ends to match the taper in the arm.you could also just redrill the crossmember.as for castor arms,i don't know of any,you might want to grab some stanza castor arms to check. springs :- go through a wrecker with a tape measure & try & get some springs with a heavier guage & close to the length of the stock ones.try something common,maybe gemini or some of the ke corolla's,just make sure they're the right diameter. good luck with the hunt,& let us know what you do. paul p.s. leigh,please fill in the details on your signin,it helps us to know what sort of answers to give you.hope all the above helps.

Datsun Sunny Suspension/Brake Mods?

Hey,
I just picked up a Datsun sunny for my winter fun car. I never had a sunny before but i have a local wreck full of stanzas, 200b etc etc. I dont wanna through money at this car but i wouldnt mind a front brake upgrade, maybe a diff upgrade etc. What/if any struts bolt into the front of the sunny? Is there a diff that bolts straight into the back? i want a locker, just dont want to break axles all the time, or is the stock sunny diff/axles hand lockers ok? Lastly suspension, whats a good HARD brand of strut inserts i could use, also whats the best springs i could use? Kings etc? Another thing, is there any other castor rods that bolt in to give adjustment? Longer lower arms to give camber? Thanks Heaps!! Leigh w You can view topic.
