Jordan,
That would be either 240K or C210 brakes I would guess. The springs can be
changed to soften the suspension up a bit if you want.
R31 skyline rears require the mounting brackets to be fitted to the arms.
See the OZDAT archives for this procedure.. It is fairly straight froward.

I have driven a 1600 with skyline (r31 I think, somewhere between 70-79)
Brakes/ struts in the front and found it had nice short stopping distance
(dry road test) but the suspension was prob a little too hard. Is it easy
to
change just the shock abs of the strut? R31 skyline rears, is that just a
strait swap of A frames? Brake Bias needed? With Prelude brakes, is that a
strait bolt up? Ive also heard of a magna front disc conversion in
Ballarat,
just trying to get more info now.
tnx
Jordan
