stupid ke20s. care to explain how you fitted the datto strut setup in your car?

No problem - Elongate the holes in the strut towers to fit the Datsun items and weld some finger nails in so that it looks like it belongs there - the bottoms bolt straight to the steering link on top of the control arms. I reversed the struts (IE drivers side to passenger side) this means that you will need to swap the springs as they are different rates on each side). The springs also need to be shortened to get the ride height correct. I used the 240K tops as the ones off the 200B don't fit in the tower, then butcher a set of K Mac top of strut camber thingies so that you can get something that resembles neutral camber.

Then you can go and bolt some HiLux 4 spots (mine have '88 Pintara rotors that have been modified to bolt onto the 200B hubs).

This conversion is totally insane... and I would personally go to greater lengths to avoid it in the future. Consider Corona struts, the KE20 has very narrow strut towers pushing you to use something that has a small diameter spring winding.
