    Default Sourcing hard to find parts - locally?

    I'm contemplating buying an LSD and fr/rear STB's for my Z31... The problem is that I can't seem to source new or used parts locally, and they'll take me too long to get from Japan if I go that route.

    So does anyone locally (Alberta) have an LSD for an 84 300zx turbo, front & rear strut tower braces (or may can manufacture them?)....?

    I'm also looking at suspension alternatives, and it seems most websites (ie: eibach) claim they make nothing for the Turbo version of the Z31 so how would I swap suspension components to be able to utilize Z31 nonturbo aftermarket suspension?


    Just running some ideas through my head to see if any of this is feasible or worth it?!

    I thought that you guys were JDM importers? It doesn't take that long to import something from Japan. Air freight will take less than a week to get here.

    I can get everything I need out of Japan.... it's just a hassle to ship it w/ fed ex... and EXPENSIVE.

    Oh well, guess I'll get it all next time I bring in a car, it'll be easiest and cheapest that way
