You'll feel the difference! 22lbs of boat anchor! You could get even lighter if you'd go for 15'' TE37's, down to 12lbs apeice and less costly to purchase. As a matter of fact, after looking at the sizing chart, I don't think you've got much choice except for 15X7 at 0 TE37 Sizing chart

I use PB Blaster...... And a torch! I like to spray the penetrant on, then heat up the area around the fastener utill I see bubbles from under the fastener. then turn.

Very nice site! Comprable to Rob Beddington's Fairlady Registry site. Loved the Racing histories! Never knew about the Shelby effort before this! Well done. Hey! I can read French better than I can speak it .

That's an interesting site. I was speaking of Marc's transmission info site Gearing Chart Using the info: (8/78-7/79) (1st)3.321 (2nd)2.077 (3rd)1.308 (4th)1 (5th)0.864 (8/79-6/80) (1st)3.062 (2nd)1.858 (3rd)1.308 (4th)1 (5th)0.773 (7/80-6/83) (1st)3.062 (2nd)1.858 (3rd)1.308 (4th)1 (5th)0.745 In fith gear, turn the output 1 revolution, If the input only turns .745 (just before 9:00 oclock), then it has the 80-83 gearset. A little after 9:00, the 1980 gearset Just before 11:00 oclock, the early gearset

That would work for everythig except gears. Some of the gaskets bearings and seals are shared throughout and most carried over from the earier A box to the later C boxes. With the exception of the coutershaft. But, We can find the vintage by identifing the overdrive ratio. I made a quicky Degree wheel for the input shaft and a pointer for the output. I'll look up the data I used to remember the process I used.

That's not a BW T5. Just another FS5W71B like your current bad transmission. Parts at drivetrain.com

And I thought I was the only one.. The outlet was done by progressive sanding 120, 220, 400 - then tripoli on a spiral wound buff - finished with white rouge on a pillow buff. The thremo housing was done with emory on a sisal buff, followed by tripoli on a spiral wound buff - finished with white rouge on a pillow buff. New temp sender, gland nut and gaskets from MSA, New zinc chromated hardware completes the piece

Mike, what does that mean, in computer illiterate engrish por favor.

It was supposed to be 112 Nissan Lime, but it ended up too green. When you said "Pale Yellow" I thought you were thinking along the lines of Nissan 665 Primrose, like the 35 year old paint on my roadster.

I like this guy already! Dominic, finish filling out your profile. Let everyone know where your from. Maybe, there's a member in your area. Sure wish we got these car in the states!

Is there room in the pockets of those tight shorts for Chairman Mao's little red book? I think this requires a Peoples Inspection. I'll represent the people, my hands will inspect these young ladies for Party conformity! Just doing my duty comrades!

I've grown to like the Falken Zeix 512 for daily driving duties. I've got 2 sets now in 195/60/14 and 225/50/15. They seem to break the standard format by having nice grip AND long wear. They're popping up more and more on the track as rain tires which is a good indication that others are having the same feelings. I never thought I'd have any respect for a tire with a UTQG rating OVER 300! My track set is Kuhmo Victoracer V700 195/55/14, and they have served me very well. So, well that they are now in dire need of replacement! Before those, I ran a set of Goodyear R1's. They were a costly mistake, as they were GONE in 3 weekends! I have been debating on switching to the Falken Azenis Sport RT-215, only because of the price. The are selling locally at $50.00 apiece! But, I don't like the size selection. (195/60/14 too narrow!) and I'm sure they can't be as grippy as the Victoracers.

John, You should tell us where you are. I'm sure Almost everyone here knows where a good pipe bender is that could make you a stock set up. If your in Los Angeles, I'm tripping over 2 usable stock systems - They were WAY too quiet for my sports car! Hate to throw them out.

Me too. It was on my roadster. Now it resides in my living room, affixed to an A box shifter. Sort of a Datsun Royal Septer, or maybe a Datsun magick wand. Next time a sick Datsun shows up, I'll wave the wand and make the incantaions - "Matsuo, Uchino, Iizuka"

I'm asking for everybody to cool it. Think you're cool already? Then please, turn it down a notch. I'm getting "Reported Posts" Emails this morning, and I don't feel up to editing. It's not just this thread either.

Has anyone seen the original option fog lamps? Are they "Everwings" brand?

"Seafoam" works almost as well as a blown head gasket. Anyone else see how a coolant leak wil decarbonize a piston?

Whattayamean? There's not even one telephone sanitation engineer in the entire group!
