This is literally a ground up rebuild. I received my rims from rota Australia today. they are 15x8 zero off set with 205 50 tires. I am going to have to flare the front fenders / guards a bit to get them under but i sort of expected that.
next on the parts list will be some coil overs and lowerd rear springs from maddat.

cheers
mick

No not yet. I have two other cars I need to Finnish before I can start on this one. Hopefully early in the new year it will be full steam ahead.

I just inherited a 260z 2 seater so now the shakotans from my 1200 have found a new home.
Now the stock 260z rims are on the 1200 for the time being. Now the more i looke at them on the 1200 the more i like them. I think with lower profile tires the would work.
What brakes would be sufficient under 14" rims I have some 200b struts with brakes i was going to fit up later. Would the 200b front brakes be sufficianbt for hill climbs and sprints?

z rims always look hot on 1200's keep em

Should be able to fit 4 spot sumitimos on there. They even fit under some 13's . I have some to fit to my 200b struts and I use 13 x 6 rims. Running 2 pot sumis now and they were fine for hill climb. But a little more would,be better.

Landcruisers. Come in vented or non vented versions. I have non vented unfortunately but got em at great price with DNA rotors
