j_boy_619 Posted July 7, 2013 Report Share Posted July 7, 2013 found these for about $150 and if they fit, I am totally interested Quote Link to comment
68datsunroadster Posted July 7, 2013 Report Share Posted July 7, 2013 Lol that's funny im the one who has them for sale. They will fit any 2" strut. You may have to cut the stock spring perch off and fab a new one. I pulled them off of a 510 I was putting together for a guy . If you have any questions feel free to call me. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted July 7, 2013 Report Share Posted July 7, 2013 I believe the strut tubes are the same 2" diameter so yes. You will be limited by your stock strut length still, so you may not be able to get down to where you want to be without bottoming out on some extreme bumps. Further you don't know what the spring rate is on these? Stock 510s had around 90 pounds per inch. B-210s wouldn't be more that that. edit: Ah I missed by one min. If you can ccurately measure the width of the wire and the diameter of the, coil outside to outside is fine, I can calculate the spring rate for you. Some 510s run up to 300 pounds per inch but this is extreme. Quote Link to comment
68datsunroadster Posted July 7, 2013 Report Share Posted July 7, 2013 The spring rate is250# on the coilovers. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted July 7, 2013 Report Share Posted July 7, 2013 That's up there even on a 510. Some go 300 but 200-250 is pretty firm. I increased my 710 from 100 to 150 and I'm good with it there. Maybe I'm more interested in being comfortable (pussy) Quote Link to comment
j_boy_619 Posted July 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2013 Oh geez.... thats that's going to be quite a difference in spring rate.... I'll have to think about that... How hard would the ride be with 250 spring rate? My stock fronts are pretty spongey right now and I was hoping for a little more stiffness, but I think this may be too much Quote Link to comment
68datsunroadster Posted July 8, 2013 Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 I read wrong they are 225# . They were used on an itb race car so they may be a little stiff on your b210. Quote Link to comment
j_boy_619 Posted July 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 Hmmm... I was reading a forum on ratsun and another member with a B210 had some that were 250 and he said they weren't bad.... how would I mount these on my B210? Quote Link to comment
