This is Roger again from southern california.

I'm in your spare strut cartridges

Did you receive my previous text sent a few weeks ago?

How much do you want for them?

They need to be 45mm in diameter not the 50 mm.

My 1200 is '72 and I I'v been told the 55mm wont fit.

Thanks

Yes. B210 (including 120Y) Sedan rear shocks fit B110 Sedan rear. Coupe shocks do not fit Sedan

Yes, those are mentioned 4 posts up

generally speaking:
* B210 shocks fit 1200s (sedan fits sedan, coupe fits coupe)
* B210 strut inserts fit 1200 if they are 120Y inserts
* unfortunately they never sold 120Y (A12-powered B210) in USA, we only got the bigger B210 with larger struts, which use inserts way too big to fit into 1200 struts

Are you saying rear shocks for a 120y will fit my 1200 sedan?

AUS B210 strut inserts fit the 1200

I've bought parts from Bprojects and they internationally send them -- that's their whole business. Shipping is expensive

David,

Good morning.

I'm speaking with a man in Australia about some extra struts he has.

But according to your text need to make sure they are the right diameter.

Will let you know.

PS:

Bprojects in Japan has them but won't internationally send them.

B210s down under use 45mm struts. Their B210 are A12-powered and are badged "120Y". USA B210s are A14-powered and use larger suspension. Both types were sold in the Japan market

Sorry its taken us awhile to get back.

We are interested in your extra cartridges.

But I've heard cartridges sold "Down Under" are primarily for B210's which reportedly have a diameter of 50mm.

Our understanding is the '72,1200 only uses a 45mm diameter size cartridges.

Which on are yours, 45 or 50mm in diameter?

Could you please check?

Thanks

VW inserts are the last thing I would use

For a smooth ride on stock size tires, better to use the Nissan inserts such as
* Genuine Nissan 1200 sold at http://www.datsun1200.asia/category/select/pid/9132
* Nissan Pulsar sold in Australia/New Zealand
* 1200 or Pulsar units made by Monroe Australia (stiffer than stock)

KYB is the original Nissan equipment. Genuine Nissan inserts are stamped "Kayaba" (KYB)
