Making the shock mounts were
easier that expected. It could have been because I was working indoors in
a fully stocked shop, not in my parents drive way.
The coilovers are Koni adjustable circle track shocks with A-1 Racing threaded sleeves and AFCO springs. the bottom 1/2" rod end has been replaced with a 5/8" Carrera rod end. Stock shock mounts are a thou. or two over 5/8", with a little sandpaper the 5/8 rod end fit quite nicely.
All coil over part were order from Pit Stop USA. |

The R200 came out of a late 80's 300zx
(Z31). The CV axle flanges can be pulled right out and 260z u-joint axle
flanges can be pressed right in. So far it has bolded right up. I did have
to move a little metal on the cross member, 1/4" spot welded
seem had to be hammered down. More Info on Rat Dat I don't know if I NEED to shorten the half shafts like Rat Dat did. It seems fine but I really have not checked it out Later I will get a LSD and covert to CV joints but right now I just want to drive the damn thing. |
