  1. Thanks for the link. I had forgotten about Datsport. I purchased a bumper from them long ago. As for commitments, let's see what your kit will cost after you get your prices calculated. It may still be worth the gamble as the AZC rear kit is still a good bit cheaper than Datsport even with the exchange rate.
  2. I appreciate the concern, and I'll be cautious with my selections. AZC however has additional solutions for me because I have a 510 (perhaps you call it a 1600?), not a Z There are also currency exchange and shipping charges to consider. http://www.arizonazcar.com/510brakes.html At the time I purchased the vehicle, circa 2002, no one made Wilwood conversions for it. Troy Ermish does now, but that was long after I bought my fancy, powder-coated, anodized, 280 zx struts with an initial plan to use stock zx brakes. His rear kit however, seems to use a smaller caliper and non-vented rotor. http://www.ermish-racing.com/510/brakes.html So my current plan is to use AZC front and rear wheel package and see if Woza01's bracket will bolt onto my 510 rear arm/hub. If it doesn't, I can try to make a hybrid of the two brackets or use it to design another. I have a plasma cutter, a MIG welder, some determination, and access to a good fabricator if i can't figure it out. It would just be nice to avoid some of the fabricating. I have enough to do. So, I currently have in the shop for consideration: a. a rust-free but slightly dented disassembled '72 510 undergoing restoration a. modified stock struts with Ground Control coil kit (recently disassembled) b. stock 280 zx strut assemblies c. fancy modified zx struts d. stock rear 510 drums with Ground control coil kit e. 200 sx rear discs (my initial plan and maybe what Ermish is using) f. donor '96 Camaro 3800 and a friend who is very good at building hybrid cars (not part of this discussion) http://s12.photobucket.com/albums/a241/MartinezMD/?action=view&current=72BuriedButNotForgotten.jpg (the other fenders and doors in the picture are for a '55 Chevy) I have since dusted it off and started working on it again. The radiator support is removed and we are straightening some inner fender damage. I have a straight/undented replacement support and valence. We are now measuring and preparing for the 3800 swap.
  3. Ambiguous? Perhaps. So in case someone skips the first post, this is what he is advertising: "comprise of 2 Caliper brackets, 2 small handbrake cable mounts, and a brand new custom Handbrake cable" I'm ordering the Arizona kit now.
  4. This is perfect timing. I've had a 510 in storage for a long time waiting for mod/restoration. When I last looked, Wilwood brakes were not on the menu. Now i have restarted my project. If you can add me to your list, I would appreciate it. Also, it is a little ironic but you are importing from the US and I'll be asking you to ship back here.
