i'll take the hubs off a of 78 strut and a 71 510 strut,,and a 280Z strut (( some dickhead sold my brother claiming it was 510 strut,,YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE FUCKER)),, and take a few pictures for you in the next couple days...I was going to do this exact measuring when we lowered my sons car then completely forgot.... ,,,unless someone chimes in with knowlege,, which with this website is totally possible sorry for the mini rant.. <_<

Yeah,, especially with instuctions on the proper use of the red ended anal probe on the wall in the background..

Happy Halloween you bastards and Jaws says hi

Look through these for DIY shifter and actual dealer part numbers ,, possibly cheaper than the ebay ones but not sure... http://community.rat...ifter-bushings/ http://community.rat...-lever-bushing/ .Next time just put question in browser and add Ratsun at the end,, these are just two of the many hits on this exact subject that popped up..trust me i'm a doctor on TV,, :D

I was kinda skeptical of the clamps at first also,, but having used them on a couple cars now,, I wouldn`t worry about the clamps at all,,,not one bit... The clamps can be moved up and down the strut to figure out exactly how low ( or not ) you want to go ,, kinda like very low budget coil overs,, and you could always remove and weld a ring in, later if you want. Like TheDatside mentioned i have seen the muffler clamp method hold just fine also ,, it just doesn`t have as clean a look..

Heeeeeey, ,,,,,,hey ,,,,,hey hey hey hey hey :sneaky: :rofl:

From the few i know personally ,, roadster guys idea of a bargain / giving away and ,,,,,,well ,,,, everybody elses,,, idea of bargain prices are two very different things

I voted so i could see a picture of you out bustin your ass blowing snow this winter ,,, whilst i sit in my warm house sipping on a cup of hot chocolate..

I like to keep my garages as organized as possible,, it just makes finding things so much easier.. :lol:

There is many variables in the equation ,,, like ,,, how high is the cliff your pushing it off of..

He would have to find a whole new mounting bracket because Datsun eliminated the extra bracketing ( for clutch pedal ) on auto cars.. welcome,, my son gets a heck of lot of thumbs up in his daily driver 79 wagon. . definetly doesn`t blend in at any parking lot. here`s my sons 79 we brought back from the semi-dead last year http://community.rat...79-a10-warthog/ (edit ) didn`t realize this was wanted ad ,,, sorry man..but if it`s out there you will probably find it on Ratsun.

Then you`ll love it around here .... :rofl: :rofl:

@brodster

Speak for yourself..

DatDoug?? :lol:

:console:

Well they are all different cars ,,,,except for the truck . I posted my favorites 9 months ago a thread alot like this one on a website named Ratsun,, not sure if you guys have heard of it but it`s kinda cool..... http://community.ratsun.net/topic/39210-your-top-cars/

I personally would not consider throwing in a L20b cheap...a 5speed would be ,, cheaper ,, it would lower your RPMs at highway speed so it probably lower your temp also ( but you want it to run somewhat hot )..and when you save up a little switch out your stock head ( you never posted what you have, and it does matter,) for a bigger valved peanut with an L20b cam for a little better air flow..A stock Hitachi is more than good enough if it works correctly,, Weber might make more power but you cant just throw one on and expect it to work good without some fiddling.. i have a L16 with a 4speed ,, and if you can only get it to 45 mph your doing it wrong.....

You know the pictures in this thread are just the tip of the iceburg,,, there`s a shit load of vintage Datsuns nobody ever posts in order to keep the find a secret......not that i would ever do that,,,,,but i have heard.. :lol: And from what i understand Oregon is way better than Washington for new people coming in...Or Boise Idaho :P

Saw these after a funeral today when we got mixed up because of bridge closer.. Yes,, East coast guys ,,,Datsuns are just sitting everywhere over here
