cheers B110SSS if its a R32 bar then i've got an idea of how it all fits up then
as for clearing a CA ... probably not with the straight bar in the pic. the bars i had were bent down at each end like this ....
Open in new window
Open in new window


my bars did clear all the CAs they were fitted over with one coming pretty close tho. the plates B110 has used were a 2nd design to those everyone that bought the complete bar got, the gussets are actually about 15mm taller to lift the bar up a little
(this was done due to someone with a rotor and a k&n filter having clearance issues )

Its a R32 Skyline alloy cross bar with Boofhead profile end plates laser cut.
As far as fitting a CA powered 1200 I'm sorry I really don't know - perhaps Boofhead may be able to offer an opinion?

That brace looks awesome.
Did you make it yourself ?
Would it fit a ca powered 1200 ?

and extra bracing in a 1200 is never a bad thing

Thanks guys. I'll endeavour to take a pic of the endplates Boof.
The airbox I made myself.
The purpose of the strut brace is to help stop any flex in the strut towers during the high stress loadings of cornering on a race track.

looks nice, just one question

what is the purpose of you fitting a strut brace?
I was under the impression that they only really benefited cars with huge HP and flimsy chassis', of which I dont generally put any datsuns despite what we all dream of

looks the goods !!! almost like a bought one

have you got a pic of the bar end/strut plate that shows how you finished it off ??

also for putting a pic in your thread ...
right mouse button click on the photo on the screen, on the pop up hightlight and copy the properties bit.
go to the post thread/reply screen and the little button that has IMG just above where you type click on that, a pop up comes up and then paste the photo properties that you copied from the picture into it .... ok the next bit till you get the hang of ... preview your handy work and if you get the post looking like what you want hit submit and bob's your aunty

edit : DAMN YOU DAVEMAN !!!!!!!!!! DAMN YOU !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
