bigaznt Posted May 16, 2012 Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 So I got a 1979 Datsun 210 Wagon. Last Owner had it for 15 years and recently pulled out his motor and sold me the sell because he was going to junk it. He had a Ka24de. I recent picked up my buddies motor Ka24e ACL Race Bearings (mains,rods,thrust) 3 layer metal headgasket Port n polished head Nismo R4 cam ( Super Lopey Idle) Freshly rebuilt la 5spd trans with Carbon Kevlar Syncros Stage 2 competition clutch kit B&M Short shifter Parts list: ACL Race Bearings (mains,rods,thrust) Shotpeened rods New OEM pistons 3 layer metal headgasket Port n polished head Nismo R4 cam ( Super Lopey Idle) I'm so new to the Datsun Game. The last owner If I remember corrected said it should be a direct bolt in because its set up for the ka already? I dont know if this is true and its kind of tough trying to find some infomation on the swap. What is needed? Please Help. Quote Link to comment

First of all you hajve to formally introduce.yourself befre you come busting in here and start demanding things -_- and a pic of you ride would br nice.. anyways. Unless the previous owner had a ka in it n all the mountain are are welded. And it's all wired up then yea you can drop it in. And if he didn't then grg.ready for a long process. And did you say you looked for any information? I bet if you Google "ka24de 210".you will find.alot 1 Quote Link to comment

ggzilla Posted May 16, 2012 Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 The last owner If I remember corrected said it should be a direct bolt in because its set up for the ka already? We don't know if the last owner said that or not. Or if what he said was true or not. The crossmember is different depending on WHICH ka engine was installed. There are front sump and rear sump. The rear sump ka fits an un-modified 210 crossmember I think. Quote Link to comment
80datson Posted May 17, 2012 Report Share Posted May 17, 2012 Yes the stock 210 x member is for a front sump. So if you have.a ka from a 240sx. Then your good to go! I was only joking in NY earlyr post ;) Quote Link to comment

ggzilla Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 See the KA swap notes at http://datsun1200.co...=KA_Engine_Swap There is a 5-speed that fits the B310 unmodified, using stock B210 automatic driveshaft and shifter hole coming up in stock location. But it's hard to find, it is a short-tailshaft 720 5-speed, then you switch the front case with a KA front case. Quote Link to comment
