Nice140Y Posted December 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 Thanks, Would any year work? What about rear brakes? Are these a straight swap or mods. are required? Quote Link to comment
sssr20det510 Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 how much are you looking to spend, do you have any fab skills Quote Link to comment
Nice140Y Posted December 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 No fab equipment. Some skills and some friends with fab skills and equipment. Budget? Depends on what it is. I just want a little more braking power. I won't be racing or anything like that but my kids love this car and I drive with them a lot in the summer. Jut peace of mind. Quote Link to comment
sssr20det510 Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 81-83 280zx front struts and brakes should be able to pick up for 100-200 dollars, I would rec doing coilovers at the same time you can get cheap ones off ebay or ground controls are 200, as far as the rear you can get caliper brackets for 120 if i remember right and get the rotors and caliper fairly cheap Quote Link to comment
