Dguy210 Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 Was just curious if there were aftermarket versions, I'm going to be swapping to a L20b here soon anyways so not overly worried. Besides I don't think I've ever seen mine go above halfway anyway, stays pretty cool as it is. I've heard rumors the 210 rad is good enough for a KA, not sure I believe it though. Datsun1200 has several listed rads from other cars that will fit (if it fits a 1200 it will fit a B210). Off the top of my head I believe it was one of the front wheel drive SR20 rads that worked best, cheap too. Quote Link to comment
Sierra Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 Is there an aftermarket one that'll work? or did you just happen to find an original? Hi Tolkmod, sorry it took me so long to respond. I found the OEM shroud for my B210. Dont really think there are any after market ones out there that will fit the OEM B210 radiator. Other than the 210 (B310), like Dguy210 adds its much beefier and better. If you are doing an engine swap I will also suggest doing a radiator swap. So I guess for now you are fine running at that temperature. Quote Link to comment
B210GX Posted April 24, 2016 Report Share Posted April 24, 2016 I do not recall ever seeing a 74 B210 shroud, only on the later models with the wider radiators... IIRC the 74 and maybe even the early 75's had a "perforated" for lack of a better word, portion that could be removed to allow for the wider radiator. Tolkmod, how wide is your radiator? pics? I have several B210 shrouds. 1 Quote Link to comment

I have several B210 shrouds. I really don't need one, was just curious if there was an aftermarket version. I'll be going with a larger rad when i swap to my L20b and I've never had a problem with over heating as I live in SoCal, so let it go to someone that needs it lol Thanks though :) Quote Link to comment

Yep, 74 radiator is tiny, 1200 size if I remember right. Also, I do seem to remember a perforated part I cut out for the larger 210 radiator. Quote Link to comment

B2Fresh Posted May 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 I need them bumpers, tailights and grill off that hatchback.. Quote Link to comment

B210GX Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 I need them bumpers, tailights and grill off that hatchback.. you could only use the rear bumper and tail light panel.. even the tail light panel will take lots of sheet metal work. <-------Look 510 posts The grill and front bumper are different than a B210 or 120Y . as they are pointed you would need the hood and the core support and lower apron to make them work properly..

B2Fresh Posted May 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 Ah it's an "Excellent" model.. Yeah that would be a lot of work to convert the front end. I would like to get the gilled front grill and correct bumper. Quote Link to comment
Dguy210 Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 Here's on I wouldn't mind having.. Right there with you on that. I've thought about importing a 120y wagon a couple of times. I'm not sure if there even is one in North America. Quote Link to comment
B2Fresh Posted May 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 I have yet to see one. You may be the first if you pull the trigger in getting one. That would be one price tag on one of them wagons shipped here.. Quote Link to comment

That would be one price tag on one of them wagons shipped here.. I want to say it was 5-6k for just shipping and probably another 4-5 to pick up a decent one so like 10k all around. Problem was it is about the same amount to get a 510 coupe or skyline, which is worth a lot more when you're done. 1 Quote Link to comment
