I have a few (by few i mean alot) questions regarding this mod and hoping to get some help.

> Engine mounts for the CA18DET (any pictures of a modified cross member so i can build one)

> Brake upgrades, will a 120y/180B/200B brake setup mount directly into the 1200?

> Tunnel Mod to suit a CA gearbox?

> What is the recommended diff for this package?

> Is there anyway to convert the front hubs to 5 stud?


> i am looking at buying a complete parts car to pillage for the mod what would be best suited (120y/180B etc)

I know these answer have probabily be answered before but any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you

120y,b210 fit perfectly they bolt right on. thats all i know.lol.. umm im looking for a wind shield got any ideas???

im in the same boat lol,

im keeping s13 box just changing the tunnel to 120y,
im fabing up my own mounts on the x-member, if your able to do so try Maddat.com there be sumtime there for you
i all ready have my R31 skyline diif shorten
soon to be mounting the suspension in to get it rolling,
i also using 120y front setup at the moment untill i sorted out the in changing to S13 fronts

im pretty sure you'll be told to do a search in wiki <-----

Thanks for that i will have a look in wiki and see what i can come up with.

As for the wind sheild i am sorry but i am only just starting (its my first project) so i am not sure where you could find one.

maddat.com for pics n prices of parts

and faq on maddat site has a step by step guid

and datsun1200.com has a step by step guild in the wiki or faq you find it

most common diff r31 some use hilux but if yo want 5 stud go commonwhore diff

if silvia front brake swap is ezy then a r32/r33 should be ezy too has they are a bolt on mod for silvias and bam theres your 5 stud

try ebay.....are you after windscreen or door shield??.....theres a fella selling them there from time to time i have one $145

if you ar doing s13 brake conversion to 120y struts, you could also probably mod s14 hubs or r33 skyline 5 stub set up.

Probably easier with 280zx sturts or r31 skyline ones though thn 120y ones due to stub axle design.

commo and falcon discs fit stanza struts
hilux diff is mega tuff (ford bolt pattern)
borg warners come in fords holdens and skylines so just pick an axle with your choice of bolt pattern
you need to make a decision early in the build as everything depends on everything else
i'm going 5 stud and i think 4 stud would have been easier
dazza

5 stud is good in that it gives you a whole lot of other choices in wheels, especially if you go 5x114.3.

widnshield. were are u at? im very interested in that wind shield. mine has 2 cracks on the driver side.
