Does a 120Y have independant rear suspension?

Can i get a list of the datsuns that do? all i know is 180B and 200B

Cheers in advance

no to the 120y (i wish)
the 1600 (p510) did

No way! The 120Y/B210 was the "economy" model. It has the cheapest solution, a live rear axle. All the Datsun rwd subcompacts used a live rear axle. In some ways this is better than IRS: less weight, more reliable, better for hard launches, easier to tune for handling.

The P510 (1600) and P610 (180B) had IRS, except for wagons, then Nissan went less expensive again for the 710 (Violet/140J/160J) and A10/HL510 (Violet/Stanza). These cars were the compacts.

The 810 & 910 (Maxima/Bluebird) had IRS, but those were Nissan's bigger "luxury" models. The Z-cars also had IRS.

The imported Datsun 200B SSS coupe [810] had an IRS, but sedans had a live axle with coils & wagons ditto but with leaf springs.
Wait,... there is a very early 200B four door sedan in a local wreckers with IRS, so this must have been an imported car.

The Aussie Bluebirds [910] all had live axles

Aussie + Japan built 1600 = IRS

Aussie + Japan built 180B = IRS

Japanese Build 200B (inc SSS) = IRS

other 200B = Crap/rubbish..deserve the reputation they have ..made in Australia, thanks for getting rid of our extra shells (we can't sell them with a L24)..Nissan Japan..

Bluebirds the 910 did not have IRS...

Least the S1/2 didnt.

Hi Tsuro they did make some 120ys with irs and L series motors. I have seen 2 they were imported and are very rare. carn't remember what they were called but they were good stuff. had a bonnet with a bump like the 1200gxs did.
