wow....even im slightly confused about what will fit now

this would be about the hundredth time ive typed something like this

if you go bigger datsun stuff

get some later ute late 120y stanza or sunny control arms, sunny or stanza balljoints and steering arms
stanza or sunny tierods and outer tierod ends
late ute or late 120y castor rods

with all this stuff then you can choose from any of these struts, and more coz i cant remember all datsuns

1600, sunny, stanza, 180b, 200b, 240k, bluebird, r30, r31, 280zx

these will more or less bolt in using 1200 strut tops, most need either coilovers or the smaller 1200 sized spring perches welded on to fit in the strut tower

bluebird r30 and r31 sturts need a sheer load spacer at the bottom of the strut so it locates on the sttering arm properly

then you have pretty much and brake combo under the sun available to you

as unfam said ive got 200b struts with 296mm skyline discs and calipers on them....most say its overkill but after driving with these brakes id say they are just right
some accepted brake upgrades that ive driven on are just plain scary when you really want to stop in a hurry

EDIT: HOTROCKET you are talking about bluebird struts not 200b ones....there is no was in hell that 200b struts are the same or similar to r31 struts(which arent way to big to fit in a 1200 anyway)

also i had neg camber on my car when the first gen strut upgrade went in, all stanza stuff, and the car was at a decent ride height
