That is the neat part... custom make the new shaft, and you can drill & tap it for any size thread you want! I wrote about making up some 5mm x 0.75mm machine screws once, on the lathe. Actually I c

Yes you can use the early 240Z STEEL WHEELS on your roadster. Later years got into those Nissan Aluminum wheels that require the Nissan Specific 12mm studs & lug nuts. Cheers, Tom Walter jon_wissler

Yes. BP6ES is fine. As Mike commented you can use one off a 510 or 240Z. You need to file out the bolt holes (wider spacing on the roadster) in order to fit. Cheers, Tom /// /// datsun-roadsters@aut
