Seats

Interchange/Swapping: European seats are often too big, and use odd mounting schemes.

American mid-size car seats like Ford Mustang GT, etc. fit very well.

Typically, 1970s/1980s Japenese seats fit well as they are:

  • small
  • sporty
  • use flat mounting points, so easy to fit

Stanza, Toyota Celica, Supra, Corolla, Honda, Subaru, etc.

  • Recaro

Front Suspension Parts

McPherson strut rebuild kit. Strut replacement inserts, Shock absorbers, idler arm, pittman arm, drag link, tie-rod ends

I recommend getting standard shocks/struts, *not* gas-charged. Both lowpressure gas and high pressure gas ones are too stiff. The 1200 is so light it will make it ride even rougher, and rear gas struts cause it to bounce on bumpy pavement.

If you have race car however, you may like gas-charged shocks.

I've always wanted to try adjustable Konis, they are available for the 1200 front and rear but difficult to find.

So the trick is finding standard shocks & struts. Most companies (Monroe, etc) only sell generic ones that fit the 1200 and the 25% heavier B210.

If you are thinking of selling, then any shock and strut is better than worn out ones...I've been there, done that with both wornout ones and gas charged.

For the front, if you can find the rebuild kit, that's what I recommend. Just replace the seals etc. and put in new fluid. The alternative is a "strut insert" cartridge. Yes, the stock struts are fully rebuildable. It is relatively inexpensive. Your local Nissan dealer may still be able to get the rebuild kit. There are two kinds, one for Tokico struts and the other for Atsugi struts.

The original 1200 strut is a rebuildable oil filled tube with shock valving and seals.Struts inserts are an alternative - you can buy a sealed shock absorber-like cartridge that goes into the strut housing. A McPherson strut is a combination shock absorber intregrated with spring unit -- it's a structural piece, holding the car up and locating the suspension. This is as opposed to shock absorbers, which if removed won't affect ride height or cause the axles to fall off. Not to say you should remove the rear shocks, but they only control bounding.

Quote:
I think Strut inserts are a bad idea. I have put strut inserts into two 1200s and neither rode as well afterwards. Nothing can beat the ride of the original struts. Plus the original

dampening can be modified so easily by changing the hydraulic fluid and with inserts, you would have to change the inserts to do that. The strut inserts wear out too fast also. My original 1200, Mareo Speedwagon I, had 17 years and over 300,000 miles on the original struts. They were never rebuilt either and rode excellent. At close to 200,000 miles, I learned the easy way to change the fluid in the struts. Unless your struts are totally worn out, rebuild them if they can be rebuilt and you will be much happier, I was anyway.

strut inserts

Quote:
The 1200s used the smaller diameter strut tube from the rest of the Datsun model range. From memory its around 45mm compared to the more common 50mm dia. In the past I have used Toyota Starlet (RWD) inserts and for racing VW Golf Mark 1 Koni gas adjustables. Both inserts are shorter and will need a [simple] spacer made to make up the difference in length in the bottom of the tube.


strut inserts -- information on adapting Koni inserts for VW Jetta.

Rear Suspension Parts

KYB is the factory rear shock brand (apparently), so that's good. These came in a black tube.

    TIP: Use a Ford oil filter #F-1 on your 1200. You only need to use a rotary grinder to grind 1/4 inch off the engine boss. The rotary bit cuts cast iron like butter. Then it fits. <li>bigger capacity <li>In the US, it is less expensive than the small "import" filter

    Pretty much any A-series filter fits. Or any with the same threads and diameter. Few are too long for the A12.

    CUSTOM MANIFOLDS
    Steel manifold is difficult to make. You need to form steel to ovals to round to tapered out. When used with a turbocharger, Steel won't break and would be ported to your cylinder head.
