NickJames720 Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 So I just picked up this 76 b210. I did the exhaust yesterday (straight pipes to a 6 inch can on the back). But I'm wondering what other mods I can do to build it up. It's got a stock A14 with a 4 speed manual. It's a coupe. Any suggestions? All considered! Thanks! Quote Link to comment
B210GX Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 first of all .................remove the 6 inch can Sorry I dont remember the original poster's name but " It is your car..............Just dont fuck it up " :) Quote Link to comment
Kirden Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 The best thing you can do is post pics imo. the datsun 1200 site has a lot of information for general build up on the A-series engines, but be realistic with your goals. Without a huge investment, 80-90whp is pretty easily attainable from the A14 with a better carb, better exhaust (possibly headers) and mild head work. According to most of the guys over at the 1200 site you will get the most bang for your buck in head work. If you get a chance, take off your rocker cover and take pictures of the numbers stamped on the head, this will give us more information as to what kind of flow you might be able to achieve. Is this going to be a budget build? If not there are setups making 160-180hp with forced induction, but for the price you will pay to get that setup you could easily get a CA18DET or KA24 and have the same or more HP and, more importantly for a daily, a lot more torque. Personally, I love my A15. I don't plan on breaking any records or racing, but the sound of a well built A-series with dual DCOEs/quad bike carbs and a good exhaust revving to 7500 rpms is wonderful. That is my goal, so the best way for us to help you is for you to tell us what you want. Power? Drivability? Reliability? And remember, pics or ban :) 1 Quote Link to comment
