deadmonkey Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 when I get my truck put back together :) Bought new clutch kit, wire brushed and painted the header, detailed the intake today and will drop the engine and put in the transmission tomorrow prolly. I just have to put the bits and pieces back together (with out all the smog crap for now), bleed the breask and put in the wiring harness and I should be back in business. Link to comment

Sickboy1031 Posted June 12, 2010 Report Share Posted June 12, 2010 Im not sure yet kinda depends on my mechanic guy if he has use for it then thats where it goes if not I can give you a crack at it. From the sounds of it he might try to put the tranny from the racecar it came out of in the truck too but Im not sure. so It might still have the 4 speed on it Link to comment

sick620 Posted June 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 CANBY was the shit probably the coolest thing I have ever done ever :D .... I met skib, Datzenmike, pumpkin210, 420n620, the list goes on. I was super bummed I couldnt take my 620. To give you an idea..... Picture 200 datsuns in one place at one time (alot more coming and going) talking to all these people on the forum, someone is BBQing all the time and there are food carts all over to buy smoothies or hotdogs or whatever, a little field of just datsun parts anything you would ever need in the field. Crazy datsun guys yelling at you to sit with them in there truck. 4 foot high bicycles. People getting yelled at for off roading their 620's through puddles, Stickers to buy everywhere, keychains, lots and lots of shirts, riding with skib in his goon to go grab some parts, discussing the finer points of transmissions with datzenmike, Listening to peoples old datsun stories.... YOU GUYS HAVE TO GO NEXT YEAR! Link to comment

sick620 Posted June 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 well...... We started pulling the tranny but my cab mounts are rusty and my cab was sitting low and my tranny was binding up between motor, frame, and cab so we had to pull the motor.... then..... On the way out we smashed in my radiator with the motor..... had to adapt in a toyota camry radiator. then..... got motor out and resurfaced flywheel then..... tryed to put on clutch/pressure plate but my new clutch was 1 inch bigger than old clutch.... then...... called clutch guy he said my flywheel must be off of l16 or l18 then..... went to barger manson and got the correct sized flywheel (my pressure plate slid right on!!) then...... got home with new flywheel and resurfaced it..... then....... found out it was a 6 hole fly wheel and I needed a 5 hole...... then..... looked closer at motor then..... got some gas and cleaned off block then....... L18!!!!!!! then..... in a hurry put back together my old clutch with my new 5 speed then.... put motor and tranny in then.... found out my new tranny bolts in at a 12 degree angle because its off of the wrong 200sx then.... tryed to piece it all together at 1'oclock friday night..... then..... got frustrated and quit then..... took my mechanic friends gay ass half running half not subaru to oregon at 6 am. when I got back...... we bent my shifter, hooked up all the misc stuff, bolted in some scrap metal under the tranny to make up the angle, made a exhaust out of a piece of fence.... now im on the road with a 5 speed! I should have one the hard luck award! :( Link to comment
