albyneau Posted May 15, 2011 Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 Up for grabs here is a rebuilt 5 speed transmission, L-series bellhousing, and (according to DatzenMike) is likely a '77-'78 280z or first year zx. Could also be a '77-'78 620 truck 5 speed. Definitely pre 1980, and not the wide ratio '79 truck, with the following ratios~ 1st.... 3.321 2nd... 2.077 3rd.... 1.308 4th.... 1.000 5th ... 0.864 It weighs about 85#'s naked -n- dry, so it *MIGHT* be eligible for UPS/FEDEX ground freight services once packaged. Barring any unforeseen complications or acts of God, I'll be @ Canby, and occasionally make trips to southern Oregon as well. Asking $175 o/b/o. I need this outta here! All but the most insanely offensive offers will be considered.... And swaps for 521 parts would be GREAT~ Need LF fender, hood, door sill weatherstrips (all 4), FSM (the actual book- not a pdf), windshield, camper window, dash knobs, matching doorlock cylinders. P.S.~ storage dustbunnies & cobwebs included free of charge~ :lol: Scott Link to comment

Howdy Haze~ I *THINK* it's light enough to ship via fedex/ups ground~ without packaging it's at about 80 pounds. My zip is 95457. To do a 521 install would require the driveshaft shortening, and modifying the shifter (heat/bend) to clear the seat~ unless you have buckets. Other than that it's a direct bolt-in from what I understand~ i.e. clutch, starter, bellhousing, etc.. Scott Link to comment

It's a brand new rebuild~ never even had oil in it. Don't know about the tranny mount. It is not tapped for a boltin flange~ so the freeze plug mod would be necessary, or if you've got a steady hand you might be able to drill it out and tap it yourself. I've been wrenching for a long time but not on datsuns~ so all the parts swapping stuff I'm real green at. It has a small piece of aluminum chipped away where the rear seal saddle is, but not enough to warrant replacing the rear housing- as you can see here: Link to comment
haze Posted June 4, 2011 Report Share Posted June 4, 2011 all right man lets do this. how do you want to proceed? ups says you can mail this thing in a personal box. i was thinking i could send you $250 even which should cover all shipping costs. if that works for you Link to comment

Let me check from my end first thing Monday morning~ just to make sure we've covered the bases. I'll PM you... Scott Link to comment

BareAssGodzilla Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 Are there any modifications required to fit this into a 510. Also is there any way you would sell just the nose cone? Link to comment

This is a brand new rebuild~ never even had oil in it~ so parting it out is not an option. I think the only issue is where the shifter'll poke thru the floor~ and I don't have the answer for than one. Check with either DatzenMike, or the 510 sub-forum here.... Scott Link to comment
