mainly just coz you can get all standard datsun parts to olt them in, and its not like parts are really hard to get for them
and ive only played around with datsun stuff in datsuns, so i cant really write about other struts that fit if i dont know that they can fit

lots of toyota struts could be made to fit with very little effort also...but i havent bothered to try them as there are more than enough datsun struts and there no real advantage in going for something else

but feel free to add to this thread, sure its probably getting a bit long now and needs to be streamlined so its easier to read. but any other info is welcome
