Some parts are interchangeable throughout many datsun cars.
The lower control arms from most rwd datsun will interchange with the only difference being length, which allows static camber to be tweaked. Search datsun1200.com for more info.
The strut tube it's self will interchange on b210/210/200sx/240sx/240z/260z/280/280zx/350z the spring diameter is different, but you can use any of those as an upgrade if you make coilovers. You'll want camber/castor plates too if you're going all out.

Misc Info
The stock spring for a later 310 ( 1981 USDM CA Spec ) was 90 lbs.

SPORTY PARTS: lots of parts from 280zx or 510 can be made to work with some dedication. the strut of any of the higher numbered datsuns will have better brakes, so a b210 can benefit from 210 struts, or 240z,240sx,260z,280z,280zx,350z ( supposedly ) the issue that you will have is all of these except the 240sx have very large coil spring diameters and will need to be made into coil overs, but that a good thing. Brakes have options too, if want better lighter brakes look for an adaptor to use wilwood dynalite calipers. There are no strut bars made for these cars, some people make small lots, but not something you'll just find commonly. Stainless steel lines, are a standard part, so just find the ones that are the right length, nothing special about them... Many generic parts work fine, ignitions, fuel pumps oil coolers, all kinds of parts can be adapted to use in our cars ( good thing too, many of those parts don't even mention datsun apps )more to be added
