Nissan Skyline model R31 was built in Japan 8508-9005. It was fitted with a Four Cylinder CA engine, or six-cylinder RB engines, or a Diesel. Australia-built R31 1986-1990 was sold as Skyline (six-cylinder) or Pintara (four-cylinder). Some parts can be used, or modified for use, on a Datsun 1200.

250 mm
Standard wheel on R31 is 14". Shouldn't be any problem running 14" wheels over these brakes. A few 13" alloys will fit, though no steel 13" will fit, even with grinding.
Though these are relatively small brakes, they are vented so will stand up to repeated braking, or mountain driving. Also see S13 Brakes for another 250mm brake swap.
The caliper bolts are 3.5 inch apart. Not a common dimension for upgrading the calipers.

Strut
R31 uses a standard Nissan 2.0" strut, so will bolt to the usual SAP. However you NEED to buy/fabricate a spacer with shear ring as the locating hole is a different size. R31 struts have a 54mm locating recess on the bottom. The W50 steering arms have a 40mm nub.
Of course you need to fit stock 1200 springs as R31 spring are large diameter.
The R31 strut tubes are similar to 280Z struts in that they are short right from the factory. The advantage is that R31 has the strut tube offset to the inside, allowing slightly wider tires inside the wheelwell. This is countered by a short-offset hub, so choosing an appropriate wheel offset is still required. They are low-scrub struts, keeping SAI to a minimum.
Datsport sells a performance version with adjustable small-diameter coilovers. http://www.datsport.com/strut-dsk250C.html

There is some confusion as the Japan-built R31 used a similar looking diff, the CA200. Aussie R31 used the BW78.
