Hi everyone, I've just joined the forum as I've got myself my first datsun. I love this little car but I'm nervous about being able to get parts for it.
I've changed the clutch, plate and thrust bearing. Wheel bearings all round,plugs, ignition system and plenty of other bits even a brand new original carpet set!
But things like track rod ends and those bits seem a bit harder to get. Does anyone know where to get parts? Also I've seen notes about joining the club but I can't see how to signup.

For parts (other than Fleabay etc.) try Will at Datman 01342-321000. He's our main source of new and old parts and has a wealth of knowledge about Datsuns/Nissans. www.datman.co.uk
No need to join the club. Membership is via this forum.... and you're in!
I have a Nissan Motor Co. Service manual for your car (Like Haynes...but better...) that you can have for the postage. If you want it let me know and PM me your address.
Welcome to the Club!

Thanks, I may well take you up on that! Is there a rep for Dorset? I'm near Bournemouth. I'd be interested in meeting up with other owners if there are any round here..

Currently no Dorset rep. If you'd like to find out more about being one, give me a call. It's nothing too arduous; more like being a point of contact and keeping your ears and eyes open for Datsun/Nissan "happenings".

Hi,
It was like that when I got it but it's all eBay stuff I think.
