  1. Did a search for you....it appears 200B SSS didnt have discs...oh well
  2. the point of fitting the R30 rear is to get disc brakes. 180B's dont have discs, and the C110 already has an R180 so there would be no point that i can see for going to the trouble of fitting a 180B rear cradle.....Hmmm 200B SSS *might* have discs......that would be worth checking out.
  3. Looks good....what is that model called over there? Here its a 200B SSS
  4. Hory Flucky Clap its brand new!!!!
  5. I got no probs with making mounts and stuff, but it would be easier if something just fit right....
  6. no photos of rear suspension there.... your springs ARE in between the trailing arm and the body, aren't they? if so....coilovers or strut tower transplant are in order to fit the r30 spring/shock assembly to a C110
  7. Cool, thanks...im thinking maybe an RB25DET into the old C210 and pi55 the v8 off
  8. what xmembers did you use...for engine and gbox? or were they custom made...
  9. It didnt....when i dropped the rear end out of the car for your photos the whole thing slipped and the diff housing hit my hand which was on the cement floor....squish MR30s are a dime a dozen, I paid $180 for mine....its the 5door hatch one I don't know if they came in sedan or wotnot.......I see more of these than dr's! Oh yeah and like disco said dont just swap contol arms...i meant for the whole rear to go in.....but those shocks are a worry
  10. we are up agains people who do this for a living? that kinda blows my chances then , doesn't it here's another effort
  11. I just thought of what could be a major prob with this rear clip retrofit.....R30 springs are on the shocks and are probably far to big in diameter to fit in the C110 shock towers....coilovers may even be out of the question....unless of course you are willing to weld in some c210/r30 shock towers..... Hmmm......i think this will be your only dilemma.....
  12. Here is your measurements. front mounts center to center = 1023mm rear mounts center to center = 320mm rear mount center line to front mount center line = 650mm disc to disc(wheel mount face) = 1440mm ...and some pics pic one is the shock mounting position on mr30 pic two is the pains i go to for SAU members pic three is entire rear clip with measurements
  13. I'll do some measuring of the mr30 rear clip i have today for you, just to be sure. the only problem i foresee is that the shockabsorber mounts are higher and slightly forward compared to the C110.....if you're using coilovers this wont be a prob( i think) as you could adjust the height to compensate.....leave it with me....Ill post again about 3 O'clock. the advantage of the mr30 rear over say a c210 or c110 is that they have cv joints, so you wont have to mod your R200....
  14. Or....mr30 rear end would be heaps cheaper than dr30 for disc brakes or.... Volvo discs fit the stud pattern and are a suitable offset...all you have to do is make up caliper mounts
  15. Fall down and worship the 1600Master (me) what you wanna know? 1600 rear susp is identical to c110.....except that it has an R160 diff. by identical i mean the design....obviously its narrower. Stewart Wilkins Motorsport(02) 45772400 make a rear disc conversion for the 240z/260z...may also fit the C110. Call them to confirm. Quote SWR website "Rear Disc Brake Conversion Kit suits 240/260Z $1,262.80" Also the Stanza SSS 5speed (quite strong) is a direct bolt on to the L24e it is the short gearbox so im not sure of the fitment to C110. Use a navara flywheel from the z24( i think) its heaps lighter...
  16. Yeah, i know....i was just clearing it up for someone who appeared to not get it properly.... also, i dunno bout r30's onwards but the older dattos that had auto trannys were all 3.7 ratio diff......try looking in an auto r30/32/33/34 maybe?
  17. It would appear that some have an incorrect understanding of gear ratios. So FYI here's how it works: for example, old mate has a 3:1 first gear a 2.5:1 2nd, a 2:1 3rd, and a 3.9:1 diff ratio. He feels that 1st gear is "too low" (ie car hauls a55 in 1st but bogs down when it hits 2nd) He could change the diff ratio to a higher 4.11, (higher number= lower ratio), this would give the impression of the gears being closer together, but at the same time rather than fixing the problem he is just masking it. with the downfall being less overall top end.(more torque would fix it properly though, as Adam_RSX said.) The solution is to lower the ratio of 1st gear,(raise the number) to maybe 2.8:1 He is raising 1st by lowering the ratio, bringing 1st closer to 2nd. Higher the number, lower the ratio....... PS if you all already knew this then maybe i just got confused along the thread... Jason
  18. might be a copy..but i'd doubt that it is an original one because of how it fits iver the rear of the boot lid....it is a "ken style" kit...so check out their website....i just did an image search for "r33 rear" on google...it was on the second page
  19. i cheated , i just adjusted the color levels on the lights...but u get the idea
