hey all im just wondering if there are any suspension upgrades that can be done to a 1000 coupe to stiffen it up and lower it a bit??

cheers dan

i aint no expert, but i just googled Datsun 1000 suspension specs....

heres what i came up with
* Front: Independent type with coil springs and telescopic shock absorbers
* Rear: Live axle, semi elliptic leaf springs and telescopic shock absorbers

So at a guess i'd say for the front some lowered springs and shockerss to suit.
The rear you could just use lowering blocks (which i think maybe illegal... if you really give a sh!t)

Lower weight helps all three.

nope wont work with no coils on the front datsun 1000 all run a front transverse leaf not much u can do with that besides lower a little and new shocks and with the rear u flip the leaves to stiffen and lower
