Sorry, just stumbled across this thread late - from reading the above posts I am assuming that using the 280ZX steering arms would also bolt up to an otherwise stock Bluebird, and would still give the increase in camber? (using the corect shear/spacer rings)

Are the ZX arms any shorter than the Buey ones at all? Does it help/decrease the 4.1 turns from lock-to-lock as well?

They are about the same length, but have a different ball joint angle, more inner offset of the ball joint, and a different shaped cure in the arm where the tie rods connect which is easily adjusted. I havent noticed a decrease in lock to lock.

Hi mate,

Did you have to grind a small part of the caliper to make room for the datsport caliper dog bone mounting brackets? I'm trying to fit mine up but the bracket is fouling with the caliper :(
If you could guide me in the right direction that would be great

Ian

I done the conversion on my 1600 and had to trim the caliper and the r31 strut were the bracket bolts up

Thanks mate, i also spoke with Baz from datsport and got a die grinder and sorted them out. They fit nicely now. My car is a trx so disc on the rear, do you know how the brake master cylinder will be with the r32 calipers up front? Will it be sufficient do you know?

I run a small can 180b booster and a 7/8th master and still have drums on the back and it pulls up very well
