Um...um...yeah. I guess so. The only thing Datsun related that I have that is going is a DR30 Skyline, but if you saw my shed, you would probably count me in.

I might have one for you, I will check on the weekend. It is from a bluebird, so I dont know if they are the same or not. If it fits, you can have it.

Chriso, my 180B never runs hot, even in summer, with me thrasing it, and it doesn't even have a fan - let alone the fan shroud!! I turn it off after 5 minutes if the car isn't moving though. And yes my gauge works and it has a working thermostat.

Sounds to me like there is something else wrong??

Blown head gasket? Blocked radiator tubes? Stuffed water pump...

Overheating problem seems to have gone away. I replaced the rad cap and thermostat and for a few days the gauge went up and down like a yo-yo, but it has settled down now and is pretty consistent.
