Re: Is it getting a little chilly in here?
The '80-'83sx were S110s and all had Z series motors.
You got a B-210? or a 210??? An L20B will make it jump.

My Datsuns, like good friends, have never let me down. At least in any way that was not understandable and thus fixable.

Re: Is it getting a little chilly in here?
Damn you for asking. We all know what I am getting-I have just been keeping it hush till the deal is final.
But this could be good to get the parts hunt/information trail rolling.
1979 210. So the only thing that will work will be an L oil pan then. ARGH!!!
And I will be going with an L18 for the time being.
L18. W53. SUs.
No transmission as of yet. No driveline till trans is figured out. No rear gear.
I have the cross member, LCAs, sway bar from the A10. L mounts from the L18 that I think will work.
Motor with head and carbs are sitting on the engine stand.
Time frame is getting close to go pick this thing up.
I got hit with a huge set back today. Trying to work my way past that though.
All should be well. :crossed fingers:

When the only tool you have is a hammer every problem starts to look like a hippy.

Re: Is it getting a little chilly in here?
Well you were throwing lots of hints... (something)ten, A10 crossmenber will fit, need L MMs. 210s are a sweet little car just like it's grandfather the 1200 but easier to find, sort of. L power will add up to 20 hp but even better the kick in the ass torque from displacement. Lots of L goodies too.flatcat19 wrote:Damn you for asking.

Re: Is it getting a little chilly in here?
The L18 mounts will not bolt to the Z rubbers.
The Z rubber have like a little metal channel that the Z metal mount fits in to.
The L18 mounts I have are bigger than the channel.
I'm thinking that I will just have to get urethane mounts or some custom hockey pucks.

Way to stiff. It will vibrate so bad that at idle the speedo will be a white blur between zero and 20MPH. The cigarette lighter will keep falling out.

Re: Is it getting a little chilly in here?
Maybe I can grind the L mounts down to fit into the Z rubbers.
I would like something stiffer, nohomo, than original rubber though.
The next worry will be the trans mounting.

Re: Is it getting a little chilly in here?
Ha. Would love to have a KA ready for this.
KA'd 210. Mmmmm...
I just want to get the car over here and put in work. KA or not.
This car will be a little ripper.
And one that I might actually be able to locate parts for.

Re: Is it getting a little chilly in here?
What you need to do is find one of these 300 dollar complet motors/trans/ecu deals ive seen popping up all year.
Then l series being cheaper arguement is invalid?
