KGa Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 Hi. I`m in need of a set of left & right side complete strut assemblies including the brakes from a 280zx. OR optionally something else that fits from other cars, but the following applies; (explained further down.. :geek: ) - Needs to fit or at least look "original style", ie not coilover seats or similar mods. - Must be from a car with originally 150hp or more. The details on whats going on if anyone wonders; I`m located in Norway and road regulations are just simply said crazy. And here i am rebuilding a 510 with a CA18DE(T) engine, and in the first "round" for approval i`ll have to get it road approved as CA18DE, this means 125hp, so thats 16up from the SSS. (later on i`ll get into adding the -T, but that's another story) To get this done i actually have to fit suspension and brakes that is either; A. After marked parts with EU, TUV etc approvals (..and forget about that for any 510 parts) B. Mount parts from another Datsun/nissan that fits in an "original manner" were the donor car has minimum 125hp and weighs more than the 510. So, my conclusion is that fitting a set of 280ZX front struts and brakes, moving the 510 spring seat over to the 280zx hub assy (i.e "made to look original") will be the best option. Now, i wont find a set of these assemblies here in Norway so i turn to you guys on here for help :angel: If someone got a set available, or can assist in getting hold of this i would be very grateful and pay a decent price (also for assistance if someone can track down something from a breaker like fex Ecology) Kristian.

KGa Posted July 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 And while I`m at it.. I have been trying to acquire a set of orange rear side markers (the round type, its a -69) from datsunpartsdotcom.. But seems like i wont get an answer from there. I got red ones on the car now, and for approval here, i need the orange not US DOT approved ones.. the irony.. The part is listed on their page; Partnumber: 2509 Datsun Roadster & 510 69 Rear Amber Sidelight Lens usd 38,- pr pair. Link; http://www.datsunparts.com/Lamps-and-Lights I would be willing to pay the double, usd 80, if someone can get a set of these for me and arrange to post them my way. That would be 80 +postage to me of course. Thanks, fingers crossed.. Kristian Link to comment
