sr1600 Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Awesome dude Welcome to the 510 club if not already. Â Had to do both the rear doors like that on mine as well bit of a mission but allowed me to take the door recesses out to allow for some more room under there. Once the panelbeater decides which one hes going to use , i may have a guard for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xygtho Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Just a suggestion, but how about getting a set of 14x7 or 14x87 tridents from an old holden or ford, and have them redrilled, or welded and redrilled to suit Datsun stud pattern? Could be cheap and plentiful - just offset that may be a prob. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GT_Escortina Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 ^^yeah that has crossed my mind with more options for wider and lower profile tire's  for 14 and 15's 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris.QCR Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Yeah im a plus one for some old Tridents and very small tires and lots of low! Will look great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KKtrips Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Talk to mint16 he has a cubic shit tonne of parts for these. Also what's the go with those struts? Looks like the vertical brackets to to bolt the hubs to are non stock and one side has been welded on upside down to the other side? Not sure which side would be right though. Haha.

GT_Escortina Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Â one side has been welded on upside down to the other side? Not sure which side would be right though. Haha. hell thats good spotting haha.. ill be cut these off and lifting the bracket higher to sit it a lot lower with more adjustment on the coillovers to keep springs captive (if that makes senses??

Mr.Mk1 Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Yeeeah,those steels are employer as Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flauski Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Nice project! Be cautious with those Silvia struts, I would have a chat with a certifier before getting carried away. I have heard of a Z owner having to remove a similar setup for cert, something to do with struts themselves, possibly the geometry was all wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
