We have lots of engine parts here in North America. eBay is a great place to find them, also the Nissan dealer. Have you checked out the Parts Sources article in our tech section?

what if I want more power out of it?
Put in a bigger engine, you'll spend less money and get more power.

For the A14 engine that North American B210s have, you can't get a lot of HP out of it without spending many thousands of dollars. Stock they are 80 HP at the flywheel, probably 55 hp at the rear wheels.

Stick a $500 L20 in it and it'll move out.

If you want to stick with the A14, you need to do a lot of work: carbs, intake, cam, head porting, exhaust headers, larger exhaust, high compression pistons, etc. And you'll have to rev the engine up high to make a lot of power (say a power band of 5000-8000 rpm) which requires special valve springs. Then it'll move out with quick acceleration.
