Nissan Drivetrain Parts — Classic Micra, Sunny, Bluebird, Patrol & Datsun
Whether you're restoring a Micra K10, keeping a Bluebird on the road or rebuilding a Patrol's front axle, the drivetrain is where power meets the tarmac. Tomaxclassics supplies drivetrain parts for classic and vintage Nissans — from the original Datsun era to the last of the air-cooled Micras — with a focus on quality and correct fitment.
What's in the Nissan Drivetrain category?
• Drive shafts (front, left and right) — the most frequently replaced drivetrain item
• CV joints (inner and outer) — the flex points at each end of the drive shaft
• CV boots / gaiter kits — protect the CV joint; replace at the first sign of cracking
• Propshaft — for Patrol K160 / Y60 4WD variants with transfer case
• Intermediate shafts — used on some K11 Micra and Bluebird variants to equalise shaft length
💡 Platform sharing: Micra K12 / Note / Juke = Renault B-platform The Nissan Micra K12 (2003–2010), Note E11 (2006–2013) and Juke F15 (2010–2019) share the Renault-Nissan B-platform with the Renault Clio III, Clio IV, Modus and Captur. Drive shaft cross-references exist — meaning a wider choice of suppliers and often lower prices due to higher Renault production volumes. The Micra K10 and K11 use purely Nissan platforms with no Renault parts sharing. |
Classic Nissan models covered
Micra K10 (1982–1992) & K11 (1992–2002)
The original Micra K10 is an increasingly rare classic with growing parts scarcity. The K11 is the most common classic Micra — a reliable city car now firmly in collector territory. We stock drive shafts and CV components for both generations.
Sunny B11 / B12 / B13 (1982–1995)
The Sunny range brought Japanese reliability to European roads in the 1980s and early 90s. Front-wheel-drive platform, straightforward drive shaft layout. Coverage from GSP and Lobro.
Bluebird U11 / U12 / U13 (1983–1996)
The Bluebird U12 introduced an early all-wheel-drive variant (SLX) — a rarity among 1980s European family cars. AWD variants require distinct front and rear drive shaft sets. FWD models use conventional front shafts.
Primera P10 / P11 (1990–2002)
A firm favourite in the Benelux classic scene. The Primera shares some drivetrain geometry with the Almera N15, broadening parts availability.
Patrol K160 / Y60 (1980–1997)
The Patrol's solid rear axle means the drivetrain layout differs significantly from the front-wheel-drive range. Front drive shafts apply to part-time 4WD variants; the propshaft is listed separately.
Datsun (120Y, 160J and earlier)
The Datsun era pre-dates the Nissan badge. Parts availability is limited — we are gradually expanding our Datsun-era drivetrain stock alongside the classic Nissan range.
