FJ20 conversions

Post by kb110 »

To all you people who have managed to massage an FJ into another Datsun body shell whilst retaining the FJ inlet tract, what radiator hose did you use?????
Reason I'm asking is my S12RSX has just blown the top radiator. Nissan no longer make them!!!!!
After about six weeks of running around I still can't find one to fit.
Any help much appreciated

Take the old one to pick a part with some tools, wander around and find something close.

Then hopefully what you find is on the shelf, hit up Greg as appco in Chch have a wall of rad hoses.

My ca 120y had two hoses cut and joined with a steel sleeve to make it work.

If it's the same as a DR hose you can get them off Yahoo Japan, that's where I got my replacements from. I can sort you some out if you need.

N13 pulsar radiator is common in Australia for FJ20 conversions.
