metalmonkey47 Posted October 28, 2010 Report Share Posted October 28, 2010 For a 210, no. Find a set of 280ZX struts and brakes and use those. Quote Link to comment

ggzilla Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 For a 210, the 280ZX struts are used to get large vented disk brakes. That's the only reason to use them on the 210. Don't use Z struts for any B-series Datsuns. But ground control do make kits for the 210 struts. Gary P uses them. Quote Link to comment
INDY510 Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 . a 280ZX is not a 280Z ......... <_< Quote Link to comment
80datson Posted February 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 ahww lame well atleast i didnt buy them yet i just took them off to get them later cas their gnna have the 50% off sale.. so ground control makes kits for them? so i dnt have to use 280zx struts then Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 Yes. The 280ZX struts are often used on a 210 after modifications. Dont use the 280Z struts. They are different. Quote Link to comment
INDY510 Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 so ground control makes kits for them? so i dnt have to use 280zx struts then I'm not shure,,,, but I'd imagine the 210 strut tubes are the same size diameter as 280zx, 510, 610 and 710s Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 Yep. 2" diameter. The kit fits a bunch of datsun-nissan models. Quote Link to comment
Master-O-Turbonics Posted February 9, 2011 Report Share Posted February 9, 2011 280Z struts wont bolt on to the stock steering arms, and you can't really use the 280z steering arms with the 280Z struts on a 210 either..... plus you have the camber situation which has to be worked out using the 280z stuff. 280zx struts = build them into coilovers and bolt on and get some new brake lines...
