Front Suspension on a 1980 210?

[Mini-L320]

I wanna changed up my front suspension, dont really know much about suspensions and what will fit good on my 1980 210.

dont really like the way the stock one feels on it right now.

The 210 (B310) is close to, but not the same as, the 1200 (B110). You may be able to use some of the performance parts from them since there are more options than the 210s have. I would expect that a 210 would respond to the same things that any other car would - stiffer springs or coilovers, larger sway bars, and wider low profile tires. I had an '80 210 so I know how they drive:D. It was totally stock with skinny tires and wasted struts. I remember wishing it had better brakes too. Since Datsuns use a bolt-on steering arm and ball joint, many of the parts can be interchanged. You may be able to do a 280ZX strut swap. By using the 210 strut top and clipping the ZX spring, you would end up with bigger brakes and much stiffer springs for cheap. Be aware that the 280ZX needs a minimum 14" wheel to clear the caliper.

The B310 already has bigger brakes and bigger struts than B110. A lot of guys use the B310 parts in a B110 to get better brakes and strut shock insert choices.

 

What is your goal in wanting to change it? Some guys fit 280ZX ventilated discs.

My suspension is kinda crappy, not really a good car to take hard corners in. looking for something to stick the tires on the grounds really good.

If someone has some cheap 280zx struts/springs for sale let me know what you got.
