Cheers for the input guys...i finally found some that were old stock left on the shelf.. problem is now, the nut to hold the insert down is too small for the insert...do you think the r31 nut would be a match??

I got mine from pedders

What I've done is use motorcycle fork oil in Sunny struts for firmer ride without having to buy new inserts. I'm going to do the same with the 200B struts I've got that I just bought some dicsc & caliper off Unfamilia for. I used 10w/15 last time & only used half the bottle, hope there's enough left for 2 struts.

Gas-charged struts are good for bumpy roads. But generally too stiff for a 1200. I recommend adjustable units.

Nissan sold gas-charged Stanza inserts but they were tuned for a much heavier car than the front of a 1200.

Hi Mate I run r31 skyline inserts in my stanza struts in my 1200 ute they are 100 mm shorter ,witch i took of the top of my struts to lower it and to get full travel I know you didnt want to mod yours but they should stillwork depending on what hight ypour car is it will make the travel/stroke 100mm so prone to bottoming out depending on spring rate im running 250bl front spings and its great hope this helps and sorry if it doesnt

Im running stanza struts on my 1200 at the moment and want to change the hydraulic inserts with gas,only problem i cant find them anywhere! ive called numerous of places and been chasing for the last month and apparently they are discontinued..If anybody has a set or know what fits without modifying the strut please let me know it would be much appreciated..
