Yeah tell the racer and the susp guy to go stick it up their date.
They are 180B offset strut tops and are identifiable as Terry told you! Someone even told me you can tell by the numbers/letters on top of the bolts but I think it is much easier to rip the black cover off and look at the strut top - it is blindingly obvious if it is an offset or not!
I have fitted them and they made a good difference. I can't tell you how much because I changed my shocks at the same time and that made a big difference too! :)
But a tip, make sure you get them from a non-Datsun wrecker because they will have no idea what they are! I got mine for $10!!

Subject: Offset strut tops

Can you get offset strut tops from some models of 200B's?  I was told that would in take a degree of static camber off my current static camber setting.  A reputable person who races 1600's told me that some 200B strut tops have the centre hole offset by about 10mm, is this true?  He also told me that they would bolt straight into my 1600 strut towers with the 200B strut and hilux caliper conversion.
 
It's just that when I went to the wreckers scouting around for them, I turned up nothing.  One of the wreckers that I went to claimed to have worked in a suspension shop for 14 years and reckons the only standard offset strut tops that datsun made were on the later model 1600 struts.
 
Could someone please sort out my confusion as I would dearly love to get my hands on some off these offset tops before I pull my entire front suspension apart.
 
Thanks in advance, Daniel Kroehn
