I had the exhaust done last October and it sounds pretty good with the magnaflow muffler. Still quiet at idle. A lil bit drony on the highway. Still happy with it

Awesome info buddy. Thanks. Kinda nervous about buying this tranny. Guy is asking $300. Hopefully it’s in good order and I can find all the missing bits on it

Looks like the 63A uses a different clutch with 24 spline. I have to see if the b310 Auto driveshaft would work. The guy has a b210 one but I know the flange is different

its also missing that plug in the photo

I’m looking at pics of the gearbox n it’s missing the clutch fork and release bearing and the reverse switch. Are those parts hard to find?

Just found this B210 63A dogleg box for sale and I want to get for my B310. It’s currently running a 60 series 4 speed(car was originally an Auto). 
Would the B310 Auto driveshaft and crossmember work?

Would i be able the use the same clutch/pressure plate setup that’s in the 4 speed?

Also would my Speedo cable work?

I need help figuring out what lug nuts I need for these mesh wheels. I know it’s 12x1.25 for my b310 but what type of lug nut do I need? Acorn type? Conical? Any input is greatly appreciated

I’m still playing around with the ride settings. I had it in the middle but it rode kinda hard. Currently got it all the way soft 

I just installed a set on my 79. I’m pretty happy with em so far. I love how my car sits now. I may have to raise the front up a little cuz the tires rub

Update everything installed & sitting low.             

Man that thing sits pretty nice!! Is it the gecko racing coilovers? N what size wheels n tires u running?

Well the 2 inch exhaust would come in handy cuz eventually I want more power. Still deciding whether to stay old school with a mild A15 or L20B or go new school with a KA, CA or SR

Took my car to a shop today to get an estimate. Waiting for him to call back with a price. The guy seemed kinda fascinated by my car as he never seen a 210 before lol. I’m kinda thinking it would be about $180-$200. I also got one of those Pacesetter monza resonated tips from a friend of mine. Maybe it’ll help it quiet down a bit

Yup FB is a good place to start. Found both my bumpers on there. One I got from a guy in Malaysia and the other from a guy in Greece. You can also check yahoo japan n eBay 

So I just looked online n there are 1.75 inch magnaflows smh. But I will still use the muffler I have and take you guys advice n go with 1.75 piping. I cant wait to get this done!

That's what I was thinking...it cant cost more than $300 for that exhaust. I was trying to choose between Flowmaster and Magnaflow. I have Flowmaster 40s on my C10 and they sound pretty good but I've heard how good the Magnaflows sound too. I got a Magnaflow muffler w/ twin tips (part#14815) on my BMW E39 530 and its got that nice throaty sound...I really dig it. That's why I decided to try the Magnaflow(part#12224). They don't have any Flowmasters or Magnaflows under 2 inches. I did have a Cherrybomb turbo muffler for it but the shop I took it too couldn't get it to fit in the stock location. I'll try it and see how it sounds...if I don't like it I can always try something else. My car has an A14 with a 32/36 Weber btw...and is a 4 speed manual. Currently it has the stock exhaust with the cat removed

So I want to get a custom 2 inch exhaust made for my 79 210. I just got a 2 inch SS magnaflow muffler for it. Does anyone have an idea how much it would cost to get an exhaust made for a 210? One guy quoted me $600 which I find really spendy. I cost less than half that to get true duals in my C10 truck

Update...been driving my car for over a week n it’s a blast. Could use another gear but it’s still awesome. Figured out the wiring as well. Have to bleed the clutch again...feels like it has some air in the system

So I’m still confused about the wiring part. There are red yellow green and black wires that were cut n I don’t know where they go. They’re part of the switches for the back up lights and top gear. It doesn’t have a neutral switch like I’ve seen on other 60 4 speeds tho. 

So I’m about ready to start the swap. May start on it tomorrow evening after work. Got the pedals in(just swapped in the pedals not the whole assembly) and got the clutch master cylinder bolted in. Almost all my parts are here...waiting for the output shaft seal to get here. 

One question. How do I get the flex plate spacer off the crankshaft?

So do I just tap the bearing off the carrier with a hammer?

Also where do I find replacement clutch lines? I need the hard and soft lines

And how do I get the surround for the auto shifter off? I don’t see any screws to get it off

Can someone tell me how to replace the clutch release bearing and output shaft seal on my f4w60?

Ok wow thanks for the info buddy👍🏾👍🏾 This is my first time trying an auto to manual swap n I’m a bit nervous. I’m hoping everything goes good

Finally found me a driveshaft and crossmember. A guy on datsun1200 forum sent me a link to a crossmember on yahoo japan auctions and I purchased it. Got the driveshaft from a salvage yard in California via car-part.com. I'm hoping to have all the parts here soon and have the swap done before summer is over.

I figured out the pedals...turns out the pedal box is pretty much the same. The only difference is the bracket the holds the little switch for the clutch pedal. The pedals should swap in just fine

Grab the news ones, sadly I still haven't been through by boxes of stuff as life has been in the way for several days.

I actually bought em a little while ago. Thanks to Morissun for sending me the link. I also bought the gearbox and flywheel today. They should be here by Tuesday. Also trying to get a driveshaft and figure out what to do about the crossmember

Datsun A series engines A13, A14, A15 & A12A all used metric flywheel bolts, the A12 used 3/8x24 UNF  thread bolts.

My experience with the B models of cars, the pedal boxes are the same. Remove the MC push rod and return springs, remove the bolt securing the pedal and install the manual clutch and brake pedal, make sure to install thin bushings and spacers, on the mounting bolt in correct order.

Awesome dude thanks for the info!!

I have a complete manual pedal box. I just maybe I could get away with changing just the pedals n not the whole thing. I’ll look under the dash later n check it out. I saw it done on the 240z on Wheeler Dealers too
