  1. http://sandiego.craigslist.org/nsd/pts/2466345677.html here's a link to the CL ad, has pictures
  2. seats are white with red headrests, someone dyed them, no tears, in fairly good shape for their mileage. bought sparcos. struts came out in working condition about a month ago, everything in good shape. pickup only in escondido, ca. email me @ motoxual@gmail.com and I can send pix of the seats
  3. nope, stock tank and sending unit. just a high pressure inline msd pump.
  4. so I decided I want a tach, and with the ka swap done, figured I might go with an electric speedo and swap the whole cluster out (if I do, I will have a super clean and unfaded guage cluster with 60k for sale. garage kept its entire life.) searched the forum, couldn't find this info anywhere but looking online, I see references for gm/ford, chrysler, or amc. all obviously different resistance values. anyone know what resistance value it is? or which domestic classic its similar too?? I wish the guages gave more resistance value info, but I'm also too lazy to drain my tank and measure full and empty resistance. someone has done this before right?
  5. I'm sure It'll be easier to have 2 axles redrilled than to swap out front end parts
  6. I knew the struts fit. I just knew they were different, and maybe a truck Hub fits either one? I plan on doing the 280z swap in a couple weeks, waiting for my weld on sleeves to s how up, and do it all at once
  7. Adapter plate? Or is there a rotor/hubs that fits 280 or 510 spindles??? anybody know?? or were you just encouraging, lulz
  8. My wagon WAS an automatic. It doesn't feel like a 3.70 gear
  9. You know what year maximas?
  10. I tried finding a locker for this thing. Seems impossible. Do you know any companies that offer a spool or locker for the axle? Maybe I should try looking it up for the truck, and use truck axles? Or maybe I should do a ford 8.8 swap. They're super cheap and I've built a ton of them for off roading. Light and lots of aftermarket parts available. I think the money would be spent having custom axles made with a4 bolt 114.3 pattern. Anybody done an axle swap in a wagon? What about an irs setup? Send pretty involved, but I couldn't tel you. Thee chassis are completely different from the sedans and coupes aren't they? No bolt ins? Thanks for all the help.
  11. Any recommended companies that sell lockers for the h-190s? Maybe it would be easier to do an axle swap from an explorer and narrow the axle? I'm already running chevy u-joints in my custom drive shaft. Maybe its time to put something bigger that has more readily available parts. I've got a narrowed 9" in the garage intended for my rambler, but I think it would be overkill for a ratsun goon. Now the 3rd member from the 190, is it different from the 3rd members in the trucks? is it just a spline difference? I figured since I got a reply from the official datsun diff expert, I'd squeeze you for as much info as possible Thanks mike
  12. I also have 72 wagon, and I just finished a ka swap, now its one legged monster. What kind of axle is this thing? is the 3rd member the same as the coupes? Or trucks? This thing needs posi like I need a new tire....bad. What are my 3rd member options? Or an I better off trying to find new gears and a locker/spool? I would also like to take it down to around 3.23, at least 3.73. I'm running 195/60/14s and in 1st and 2nd gear anytime I mash it there's a smoke screen (really fun actually) but I'd rather have it launch, lol.
  13. Let me know when they're ready.
