NISSAN branded motor blocks in Datsuns

Way back in 1973 and likely further back, the Datsun 240Z and 280Z had straight 6 engine blocks with the NISSAN name molded right in the engine block in bold letters. It was obvious Datsun and Nissan were the same company even back then. It might be worthwhile to mention the NISSAN name on the early engines in Datsuns. (Too bad NISSAN didn't just call it the NISSAN Datsun 240z then move on to other models NISSAN Altima, etc.). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.126.38.217 (talk) 12:22, 4 October 2012 (UTC) datsun was early car before nissan — Preceding unsigned comment added by Markusizr (talk • contribs) 20:26, 11 January 2014 (UTC) hfjdvjfduvyjjhchvbcjvbdjfk gb — Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.123.226.174 (talk) 11:38, 11 April 2014 (UTC)

Nissan / Datsun

Due to historical reasons, the history of Datsun parallels in large parts that of Nissan. Currently, there is a lot of duplication between the Datsun and Nissan articles, especially when it comes to history. I am seeking comments for how these chapters can be somehow consolidated. In doing so, perhaps the criticisms voiced on this talk page can be addressed. I have posted this both on the Datsun and Nissan talk pages, but I hope, we can discuss this all in one place.
