Permantly attached means essentially that it can not be stuck to the strut in anyway.....it must just sit around the shock tube (on a lip that you can weld on, go figure).

Joe, well I haven't run the 200sx in a season and a half, but it was midpack at best. Pulled a couple of thirds (slim fields) on it's last weekend. Thats one of the reason I built the 240sx (and the fact that I am a Nissan guy). The L20 motor is a stout motor, and I usually beat the 2nd gen 200sx's that came out to play, but like you said, the 2nd gen cars are heavy. My 200sx weights in at 2350, and you car weights what the 240sx does, 2530lbs. I have spent the last year freshening up the 200sx and it will propably try to go vintage racing this year, but we will see.

Silkworm, press fitting, very tight tolerences, and you monitor them, a lot.
