Administrators gav240z Posted May 4, 2010 Administrators Posted May 4, 2010 Yes it is. Known as the 200SX in the USA. Such a strange shape if you ask me. Kind of glad we didn't get them in Australia . Quote
Administrators gav240z Posted May 4, 2010 Administrators Posted May 4, 2010 160J? ?? Violet ?? * US market Datsun 610 coupe. It has unique tail lights to that market. Not sure if JDM got them also, but definitely different to the Aussie market. * Datsun 710 Coupe. Again US version, not sure we got a coupe like that in Australia? We called them 200B's but we had a different coupe shape. * 140J * 140J Pic 1 is a JDM 610 bluebird (180B for us Aussies). Not sure if JDM market got those lights. Got it off Flickr.com for a US market car. Yes Pic one is a 610 JDM version Gav you are correct about the V8 pic I posted it was the Y44 The engine pic you posted is that from the Price R380 and the engine is the GR8 a DOHC 2L inline 6 and the predecessor to the S20 which powered the Z432 and KPGC10 aka Skyline GT-R Engine pic is indeed from the Prince R380, I guess the red paint is a giveaway and the MR layout. Great looking car. Quote
NZeder Posted May 4, 2010 Posted May 4, 2010 The US 710 coupe like all US 710 had big US bumpers (ugly) and live rear axles. All the coupes here in NZ are SSS versions and have IRS same setup as the 180B SSS. Those pics of the 710 aka 160J/Violet are not US versions as they don't have the ugly 15mph bumpers (I should post pics of my old 160J SSS) EDIT:Okl here are some pics showing the difference between the US 710 and the RHD 710. Notice the difference in grill and bumper design - the US is ugly don't you think? Quote

FuzzyDropbear Posted May 20, 2010 Posted May 20, 2010 Ok, how about something a little bit off the beaten path? It's one of the JDM versions... But which one? Quote
NZeder Posted May 20, 2010 Posted May 20, 2010 Looks like a bluebird 4wd turbo SSS pilerless sedan we got a few as JDM grey imports. Can't recall the chassis code but when I am not on the mobile will check and update UPDATE: RNU12 is the code for the SSS-R 4WD Hi-Cas Turbo Bluebird in the pic above. Quote
FuzzyDropbear Posted May 20, 2010 Posted May 20, 2010 Ah, very good, we find Bluebirds occasionally over here, but pretty rare to find one in decent condition. However, the one in the pic isn't a 4wd version . I think that these were made when they were trying to sell the last few off... Quote
NZeder Posted May 20, 2010 Posted May 20, 2010 We got the U12 new here in NZ - just the 4WD/Turbo SSS versions were imported Anyway here is a Nissan for you - ok not a production model but a concept - who can tell me what is was based on and the year it appeared? Quote
NZeder Posted May 20, 2010 Posted May 20, 2010 Here is a current concept from Nissan - who likes this one and who can name it Quote
FuzzyDropbear Posted May 20, 2010 Posted May 20, 2010 Anyway here is a Nissan for you - ok not a production model but a concept - who can tell me what is was based on and the year it appeared? Ooo, I've seen that one before somewhere.... It was a concept in the mid 70's or so wasn't it? The bluebird was the 'Super Nismo' version, FWD powered by a CA18DE.... SSS-R bonnet looks good though. I rekon that new concept looks nice! no idea what it is though. Quote
NZeder Posted May 20, 2010 Posted May 20, 2010 Ooo, I've seen that one before somewhere.... It was a concept in the mid 70's or so wasn't it?Yes Mid 70's is correct so mid it was 1975 so what car was used as the base - hint pics of it in this thread Quote
RBZ 260 Posted May 20, 2010 Posted May 20, 2010 that 70s concept looks like it has a z windscreen or similar to the lemans race cars. that new one im assuming it be the new Z it looks too big for the new Silvia/200sx/s16 Quote
FuzzyDropbear Posted May 20, 2010 Posted May 20, 2010 Yes Mid 70's is correct so mid it was 1975 so what car was used as the base - hint pics of it in this thread Ah, well that gave it away didn't it hee hee. I have a feeling it was the Cherry? Or maybe I remember that car from something else. Quote
GV260 Posted May 20, 2010 Posted May 20, 2010 The rims on the black JDM Bluebird are Nismo branded rims made by Enkei (15 x 6.5) as I have two sets for my 240!! Quote
NZeder Posted May 20, 2010 Posted May 20, 2010 Ah, well that gave it away didn't it hee hee. I have a feeling it was the Cherry? Or maybe I remember that car from something else. full marks yes it was based on the Cherry aka F10 and the concept name was Quote
T.A.P Posted May 20, 2010 Posted May 20, 2010 Here is a current concept from Nissan - who likes this one and who can name it I like , 400z? Quote
zzzzed Posted May 20, 2010 Posted May 20, 2010 the u12 blue bird above are known as u12 pintara's here in australia I had one with a Ka24e in it and it use to fly Quote
FuzzyDropbear Posted May 20, 2010 Posted May 20, 2010 I had one with a Ka24e in it and it use to fly Yup, agreed. I have one now as my daily, standard they're no slouch. But with a bit of work done to them they're a good engine, especially with a decent tune. Quote
