The rest of the g610 from door back is a u610/180b.no difference in chasis other than the front.but i too prefer the sss front grill

Have owned and raced 180b's over the years and really enjoyed them.
Still think the L18 was the best of the L series engines.

a12grunt -- I have early and late grills in the shed and possibly a few other bits if you are after some.
Also have a couple of the original twin point dissy's in the cupboard I think.

Once again just to rub it in heres our old 180B in action back in 04 with my young bloke at the wheel.

Ivan1,
thanks for the kind offer mate.ive got a couple of grill spares but if i ever need them,i will def pm u mate.

il actually be using sss twin sus from my 72 sss to power up the a12 in the ute so might be interested in getting another set of twin sus in the future if you have some.

That looks like alot of fun in that pic.which track was that on?

That's curcuitde ivan.... Where he likes rings...... Be careful he likes a bit of grunt with them too

In all countries this is a Datsun model series 610, and it will say so on the engine compartment build plate.




They were marketed and badged differently in different countries.

The G610 was stretched for a straight six L20 engine. G prefix usually means long wheelbase.

ddgonzal,
yes,they are 610s in all countries but were badged as 180bs in australia hence they are known as 180bs here.Most people in oz wouldn't know they are called 610s.
also ive got those part catalogue books and they were quite expensive from japan.They are helpful though as ive been able to order some parts from japan by the part numbers from nissan.

What never heard of the 180B SSS E variant with 125PS instead of 115 PS,THe Fuel Injected Nissan Stanza Coupe I once owned was ex Howard Marsden and George Fury and ran one of those setups plus an L20 B ex Factory.

180B SSS E used a A 87 spec head with the extra cutout up top for the injectors plus extra studs for the inlet manifold but all doable on a Carby Head as a Conversion.

I Modified a 219 Head to suit and on top of a Japanese L20 B Block fitted with FIA Pistons it made a real nice road engine with stump pulling torque.

A good 610 SSS with the injected engine would be real nice and ultra rare as it seems I am one of the few aware of the Model ever existing.

Here is a Link about someone doing basically what I did but 20 years later,with the ever so rare L18 EGI system,Hope he knew about adapting an FJ 20 TB to it the L18 one is quite small.

Searching for 180b sss on google and it comes up on wikipedia listing all the models including the sss-e.It also came with a different dash from the round ones and also from the square ones.the sss-e dashboards and injection systems pop up once in a while on yahoo japan auctions.The full cars also pop up on auction sites and caryard sites on japan too.
But yes few know of their existence...
