datsunaholic Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 Hm... I had thought I read somewhere one body style was either auto, or 4spd only Every body style had the automatic as an option. It was never a standard feature, though. Manuals were more common. The 4-speed was standard in all body styles except the 3-door coupe, which MAY have had the 5-speed standard. I do not know this for sure- but I've never seen a 3-door (78-79) with a 4-speed. I've had both 5-speed and automatic ones. I have seen 5-door coupes (80-81) with all 3 transmissions (4, 5, auto). Wagons never had a 5-speed except in 1981 (per the factory manual), but I've never seen a wagon with one (that was stock, that is). Sedans, both 2 and 4 door, had 4-speeds standard with autos and 5-speeds as an option, and I've seen them. But 4-speeds were most common. Quote Link to comment

THEa10wagonsss Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 anyone know why the 3 speed autos can only go to 55-60 on the highway at high RPMs? Quote Link to comment

flatcat19 Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 When I got mine I was doing 75 down the freeway without a hitch. Even tapped 80 a few times. Quote Link to comment
THEa10wagonsss Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 is it ok to run the l20b's at high rpms like that though? Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 is it ok to run the l20b's at high rpms like that though? Should only be doing around 4000rpm at 70-75mph. If it's spinning a lot faster than that, something is wrong. And while they don't make much power past 5500, the occasional 6000rpm blast is fine. Routinely hitting 5000 is no problem at all.

flatcat19 Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 Mine was a Z20. Define high RPMs. Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 Mine was a Z20. Which will gladly rev higher than an L20b. ^_^ Define high RPMs. Bet $5 he has no tach and it just sounds like it's revving high. And they do. When they are not. :rofl: 1 Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 I know I was less than 4,000rpms on the freeway. Our freeways around here are 70mph. Quote Link to comment
fritzdixxon Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 got it on the road with new shoes and ridin high again Thought you were wanting to put er up for sale? Quote Link to comment
datsunaholic Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 anyone know why the 3 speed autos can only go to 55-60 on the highway at high RPMs? I had my Z24-powered '81 wagon w) Automatic up to 75. And Z24s do NOT like high revs. And it had bad oil rings and horrid compression. Plain wore out. It still hit 70 easy. It was maybe 4K revs, but I doubt it. 65 with my long-departed '78 Automatic coupe was also quite easy. Easier with the 5-speed though. Easier on the ears, that is. The high-rev sounds are a common complaint from folks that didn't drive these back in the day when overdrive was almost unheard of. These aren't V-8s that turn 2K at freeway speeds. They are small relatively high-rpm 4-bangers. 80-81 all had tachs stock. 78-79 was an extremely rare option. Quote Link to comment
robopineapple Posted July 3, 2015 Report Share Posted July 3, 2015 I have not been on this in so long haha. I have the ka for the most part ready to be dropped in now. I lost motivation for a long time. Are any of you guys good with all the hoses on the back side of the intake manifold on a single cam? I believe I can block a bunch of them off cause it's just envisions shit Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted July 3, 2015 Report Share Posted July 3, 2015 There are emission delete threads all over. Very easy to do. Did one for a guy not long ago. Quote Link to comment
robopineapple Posted July 3, 2015 Report Share Posted July 3, 2015 No No I know there are a bunch of the how to. But there are a few that I have no idea where they run or how much hose I will need, pretty much all of them snapped when I first got the engine cause they were so griddle. There is also a snaped brass tube on the back that I have no idea where or what it is Quote Link to comment
mhub91 Posted July 3, 2015 Report Share Posted July 3, 2015 Large tube? Approximately 1/2" in diameter? If it's going to the exhaust manifold, that's the EGR pipe. Quote Link to comment

mhub91 Posted July 3, 2015 Report Share Posted July 3, 2015 No need to remove EGR. If it's functional, no problem in keeping it. It is emissions equipment, sure..... But it does help decrease combustion chamber temps Quote Link to comment
