maswov Posted April 6, 2016 Report Share Posted April 6, 2016 สวัสดีครับ New board member and new Datsun owner here, I picked up a 78 (?) 120Y Sunny GL a couple weeks ago. I am not 100% sure on the year because the car was first registered in 2003 and a mistake could have been made when printing the registration book. I believe the car was imported from Japan or Australia in 2003. One of the PO had been building this as a track car give me a good base of mods to start with. A friend of mine bought it about 2 years ago as a replacement for his toyota he crashed on the track but hadn't done anything with it in that time. I put in a new battery and a few liters of fresh fuel, didn't take long to start up but That is when I found out I needed a new slave cylinder. Got it running for the most part now, needs some new tires, belts, and a couple gaskets and damn is it fast! As you can see it still needs lots of work. I will post a few more pics in the project section and update progress as it happens. 4 Quote Link to comment
B210ratsun Posted April 6, 2016 Report Share Posted April 6, 2016 And it is from Thailand or that part of the world from the lic plate. Quote Link to comment
Tolkmod Posted April 6, 2016 Report Share Posted April 6, 2016 what the story on the trim, why do some car have them? was it factory or dealership install? The guy I bought my 280zx rims for actually worked for a dealership back when these were being sold (he was a kid) and told me that he actually installed all those trim options on the B210's as part of his job. It was a dealer option and to be honest I think it's fugly lol When i get my paint touched up I'm having all of it removed! 1 Quote Link to comment

nuthinbutaBthang Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 went for a cruise and took some shots 2 Quote Link to comment
B2Fresh Posted April 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 That would worry me. I would have it checked to see if maybe the thermostat is not going bad and have the radiator and water pump checked while there at it.. Better to have it checked than be stuck on the side of the road.. Quote Link to comment
B2Fresh Posted April 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 Looking good.!!! Man I was just in Vegas this weekend for the Viva Las Vegas Rockabilly Car Show over at The Orleans... We were vending at the show but it was windy as heck Friday and Saturday but we had fun.. Quote Link to comment
Sierra Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 @ nuthinbutabthang, do you have a radiator shroud? When I got mine 78 B210 came with out one and it was running that hot. Once, I installed the shroud the temperature lower significantly. Quote Link to comment

Dguy210 Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 If you're worried look for an automatic 210 with ac radiator. Huge and a direct bolt in and came stock with shroud. But really that temp on a stock b is within spec per the manual and my experience. Quote Link to comment
Tolkmod Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 Was just curious if there were aftermarket versions, I'm going to be swapping to a L20b here soon anyways so not overly worried. Besides I don't think I've ever seen mine go above halfway anyway, stays pretty cool as it is. Quote Link to comment
