Hello there. I am wanting to know about the gearbox known as the FS5C71A. I know it was introduced in the Roadster 2000, in about 1967. It known to have a 3 piece case with a stright stick. It had a variant, same numbers except the C was a W (FS5W71A) which had the weaker warner style brass syncros (instead of servo style steel syncros). I thought this box would be rare, but I believe it was original equipment on the 1969-1971 240Z as well? This is where I need confirmation from a "Z head" as you like to refer to yourselves!!! Is it true? I also heard that the 1972-1976 240Z had the next evolution, the FS5C71B which differed in that it had a 2 piece case and a bent stick.…

I almost have all of the hoses replaced in my car. Picked up the replacement upper heater hose from MSA on Friday. Installation on the engine side is a breeze. So next I look under the dash to see where and how the hose connects to the heater core. Keep in mind I have AC on the 71Z, so that cramps my access on the passenger side interior foot well. The hose is secured with the original Datsun hose clamp. But here's the rub. It looks like the clamp was installed before Datsun put the glass and the dashboard in on the assemble line. The phillips head screw on the clamp is pointed towards the sky. Which means there is no way possible to get to it save pulling the da…

Well I read somewhere that a standard 240z has a weight distribution of 51:49 - almost perfect. Now consider a 240z with an sr20det in it - being a 4 cylinder (will seart completely behind the front axle) and having an all alloy design (meaning its lighter) it will alter the weight distribution significantly and from what I can see this alteration will make the car rear heavy, which in turn will lead to fun but not a very efficient handling dynamics on the racetrack.... On the other hand I keep hearing that 240Zs with SRs have great handling, could someone please explain to me how that works?:surprised While I understand that its possible to cancel some of the rear-heav…
