my 240k struts have 271mm rotor and 2 piston opposing calipers,
off a 240k GT or 2 door maybe that's the C110 coupe as u say?
i know in Aus, Stanza 1981 square headlight version has exactly the same
brakes
as late model 200b, even though the mag fast 4's said they where bigger,
they aren;t as i learnt the hard way, and bought a set from the wreckers,
and they where exactly the same, the 200b had a much larger coil spring.

NZ Nissan say we got 240K's and 160J because they didnt sell in ozzie??..
240K--Skyline....Skyline speedo goes to 180Kph..240K goes to 240Kph
,,240K
is of higger spec and also only built as export..
C210 and C110 ant the same and C110 Coupe is the best for front end and
4x
springs.
Early 240K C110 have 271mm disc with single cailpers (same as stock 510
but
way bigger,One piston),Later 73-on C110 and C111 and C210 and C211 have
254mm disk with single oposed cailpers(one piston each side)..
Some Austain cars of the 70's have twin ,,two pistons per side,(some
people
call them 4 pots), but 1967 510 singles work way better..
Rumour is the 610 failed in in every way,710 160JSS was replacement for
the
240Z (In factory race world)..
510 ,, 710 ,, 240Z no nissan has come close so far,,R32 GTR is 4WD and
dont count..
810 200B'SSS front sturts are the next best item..(Not 810 180B'SSS,,,not
the same)
Malcolm
P.S
Factory Japan race 710's have twin can turbo engines.. In 1973...
