diff q's

Hey mark I have just finished a CA18 into 1200 coupe conversion for a young fella stock engine no intercooler ect. I used a complete stanza front end as in lower control arms radius rods ect ect had to machine another couple of inches of thread on the drag links I used the honda 10" discs and hilux 4 spot callipers a bigger master cylinder with no booster it brakes really well. Same setup as i have in my pretty quick 1200 coupe. It pulled 1.5 g's on a brake test from 100kmh :) Ill be soon upgrading suspension and brakes with 10" discs some alloy 13's do fit (just) I used to have a set of 13x6 bathurst globes on it.
As for the box you can fit a Mr30 skyline box with series 3 bluebird bellhousing into a manual tunnel its a really tight queeze but it will fit into the sedan and coupe but not the ute :(
Cheers Andrew

If the stanza struts fit, I have a spare stanza you can raid for parts. It also has a set of Stanza SSS alloys (13 inches) which would obviously fit over the stanza brakes. Email me off list if you are interested.

Subject:        Project 1200 - brakes/tunnel/diff q's
Hey all,
A friend of mine just purchased a 1200 sedan with plans for a CA18DET conversion, but we need to know a few things first, and if anyone can help out with some advice or knowledge it would be great!
Firstly we need to work out what brake upgrades can be done to a 1200, preferably on the easy side. Do stanza struts and brakes fit?? Also what brakes will be required to get the car engineered with the CA? He has 13" jellybeans for wheels, will these fit over the upgraded brakes??
The next problem was the transmission tunnel - the 1200 is a manual so does this mean we will have to chop up the tranny tunnel to fit the CA box? Or does it fit okay if you use a stumpy R30 skyline box with the CA bellhousiing?
Lastly the diff will have to be upgraded - is there any easy upgrades from other nissan donor cars like a bluebird maybe?? Also would it be necessary to get a disc brake rear end?? maybe from a bluey TRX??
Sorry for the long post but any info would be much appreciated!
Cheers,
Mark Firman
