not sure, i was going to get a pair and see what they were like.

trying to decide what would be best for the conversion, i beleive the 240k would be better height, brake and clearance wise?

stock as stanza struts, unless someone changed em on their stanza that i got it off!

theyve definately got girlock calipers if that helps

see pic and tell me what they are

pic 1

pic 2

i dont think i ever actually measured the disc i was just going by what i was told

soon to get 240k struts, would that improve situation?, i was going to put U12 pintara discs on (with hilux 4 spots) so it could change again though couldnt it?

Perhaps you could try taking a brake pad out and matching it up to a brake pad catalog?
Wouldn't be definate, but might help?

To make 180B or 200B struts fit from memory you need the Sunny steering arm, check this out also!

I think I remember his website (which looks pretty good btw) saying he had 9.5" discs. He may have 200B struts or hubs and discs on the Stanza struts? There are some significant variations in the distance from hub mounting face to strut body on various datsun struts.

Thanks fellas, OK maybe not nice and big brakes, but bigger than 1200

Ok, here is what I have...

110mm OD spring with Nissan on the strut, Girlock calipers with Datsun on the bracket and 9" disks.

The australian made stanza struts have "Armstrong" stamped on them on the strut body.

Cheers

They are certainly nice big brakes...
probably not stanza then!

Stanza struts have a 9" disc and a 110mm OD spring. If you can measure the disc, and spring on the cars, and the brand of caliper (normally cast into them) I might be able to give you an idea of what they are.
