datzenmike Posted November 24, 2010 Report Share Posted November 24, 2010 Yes. The caliper is consistent with the 240/260280z car. The strut and rotor is another matter. I understand the early S30 struts didn't fit. Take a wire brush to the tube below the spring and remove the rust. There should be a part number there. I may be able to match it to a car. #54302 is RH and 54303 is LH. It's not the S10 200sx they look somewhat like the 620 type, not the S110 or S12... no way Not the 280zx or 300zx They would be vented rotors anyway. Not early 720 calipers, they are the same as the 620. Not 810 or Maxima either. sorry DATZEN i didnt me to bother any one its just that im new at this but thx for that site. You aren't bothering anyone, the whole point of a forum is to exchange ideas/info/experience. You may be new but already you have solved how to post a picture. Everyone has to start somewhere.

INDY510 Posted November 24, 2010 Report Share Posted November 24, 2010 Everyone has to start somewhere. But it's all downhill from here... :rofl: .. Can you post a pic of how the caliper mounts to the strut... (does it look stock?? ... or is there a caliper bracket???) Quote Link to comment
71SSS510 Posted November 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 Ok so I went to the junkyard and determined that they are from a 280z and 240z struts, calipers ,and hub with disc match. Fr a mid 70's Z thx alot for the help it really was helpful Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted November 26, 2010 Report Share Posted November 26, 2010 On further investigation I found that the z car (not zx cars) struts have a much larger angle between the spindle the hub sits on and the strut tube the spring is on resulting in a camber problem that cannnot be fixed unless the z car LCAs and some other things are also swapped. This is doable but unlikely. The strut is probably not a z car one although the caliper probably is. Are the front tires tilted out at the top when forward facing? Quote Link to comment
71SSS510 Posted November 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2010 Yes they are out a little from the top even with camber plates. It's not really noticable but they are I'm gonna buy the adjustable LCA from Troy Emerish. Quote Link to comment
