I did a quick google search and found,
S110
Nissan Silvia (S110) (Europe)
Nissan Gazelle (Japan-hatchback only)
Nissan/Datsun 200SX (North America)
Production 1979–1983
Layout FR layout
Engine(s) 2.0L SOHC (Z20),
1.8L SOHC Turbo (Z18ET),
2.2L SOHC (Z22E)
The 2-door coupe was named the Nissan Silvia and the hatchback was named the Nissan Gazelle. The two vehicles were sold at different Nissan Japan dealership channels. This iteration of the Silvia, was uniquely progressive in that it was originally intended to feature a rotary engine, designed and built by Nissan. The resulting unit was fairly unreliable, and forestalled production. Ironically, it shared a chassis code with the also ill-fated Mazda Cosmo, first Japanese production car to feature a rotary engine. The car was redesigned shortly after it was released and the Wankel power plant was replaced by a line of conventional piston engines based on the new Z-series engine. These included the Z20 and the turbocharged and fuel injected Z18ET. The Z22E was later introduced, with a larger displacement and fuel injection.
Look for parts for a 83 200sx.
