Hello friends,

We are making progress on the roadster but today feels a little like one
step forward and two steps back. 

Nolie had done a very nice job of removing, cleaning and inspecting all of
the rear brakes. While we were putting everything back together we noticed
that the bond between the shoe and liner was weak.

 

We now have two paths. Clean and re-glue the pads. I have found this in
small enough containers to be the right scale:
http://news.thomasnet.com/fullstory/Bonding-Adhesive-holds-up-to-450-F-48891
2 Does anyone have better pad bonder suggestions?

 

Or second path, step up to the rear disc swap.

For the rear brake swap I have found this guide:

http://www.311s.org/pmwiki-311/pmwiki.php?n=TechSection.200sxRearBrake . Are
there others examples on the net? 

Does anyone sell a kit to do the rear brake swap that will fit with 14"
wheels?

 

Is this rear brake swap in proportion with the Volvo 4 piston front brake
upgrade?

 

What master cylinder is best with the Volvo swap in the front and 200SX
brakes in the rear?

 

Thank you,

Nolan

Tim,

Just block the sender.  Let me know who he is, and I'll block him, too. 
I have 
blocked maybe a half dozen List people who sent messages about my
posts I 
considered out of line.  I always let them know, so they know their
vitriol will 
no longer reach me.

I agree with you about replies,
by-the-way.  I often see interesting questions 
posted, but sometimes never
see responses.  I generally "Reply All", figuring 
it's not too hard to delete
anything I write if the recipient thinks I'm nuts or 
doesn't care to wade
through it.

Gary

Hi Paul,

I also have seen how people are terse in the writing of their ads. It may
come from having been exposed to respondents who are irritating for various
reasons.

Sellers understandably wish to filter them out, and brusque listings can
dissuade at least some idiots from even trying to approach.

One workaround is a phone call rather than email when possible. Each can
size-up the other and go from there real time.

Then again, another selling strategy is not to include a phone number since
it can be easier to read and delete...

450 degrees F is nowhere close to the heat resistance needed, even for 
the rear brakes (assuming they are properly adjusted and work).

Trying to rebond friction surfaces is a recipe for getting a separated 
liner jammed between drum and shoe at the most inopportune moment, an 
opportunity to find out how well **one** of the rear brakes can work.

As you ponder the disk replacement issue, get the drum brake pads 
rebuilt.  In my experience, Porterfield does a nice job in a variety of 
friction surface specs.

Message-ID: <CAFEMhEvNKmBPiJj-POy7jq5Wv6d7D-a_PdXQidwPqJ+RNYBdeA@mail.gmail.com>

  I found a great write up on installing new sockets in '69 tear drop side
lights at 311s.org, but for some reason, I can't get into it this morning?
So I'll post my info here.
  The article uses Dormax part number 85806 sockets with just a slight
modification to make it fit down in the light body.  About 3 minutes with a
Dremel tool does the trick.  What the article did not say was what bulb to
use.  The Dormax package recommends an 1156 bulb, but it is two fat to fit
down inside.  I found a type 89 would work, but is a bit short and would
sit way down inside the body of the light.  I'll probably use them on the
rear side lights.  They are rated at 13 volts, 7.5 watts.  Then I found a
type 105, 12.8 volts, 12.8 watts, that has the same base, but is about 3/8"
taller.  That allows the filament to sit above the body of the light so it
should be brighter.  Has anyone had problems with melting the lenses using
a 12 watt bulb?  I'd hate to lose one of mine experimenting.

Good morning John,
Mainly I am considering re-bonding the friction material because I only
expect to be using the drums for a very limited time. It is also a moment
with my son to look at the parts we have and determine if they can be used.
Instead of ordering everything new, if we have something in stock, we are
looking at it much closer instead of tossing it aside.
The project of cleaning the steel and friction surface to prepare it for
bonding could be a good experience.

Today we are taking the truck to my grandfather's shed to bring home the
rest of my roadster parts. There may be a second 200sx caliper and perhaps
some disks. If that is the case, we may jump right to the rear brake
conversion idea.

This is the first car project I have had that is more about the journey than
the finish.

All my best,
Nolan

Good morning Bob,
Porterfield is a good suggestion I hadn't considered. Thank you.
(Putting on my old folks voice)......I remember putting the brakes on hard
from 7000 rpm in 5th down to 40 mph. The car would shoot sparks out the front
from the metal master pads, the disks would glow and the roadster would stay
straight. I have wondered if and assumed that friction material has improved
in 25 years.

Do you think the new Porterfield's grab as good as an older pad with a high
metal content in the blend? Apparently there is still a metal master pad on
the market. I am not sure if it would be the same blend as 25 years ago (less
asbestos?)

Best regards,
Nolan

Hello Friends,

On Bob's suggestion I started looking at the Porterfield brake options. This
led to finding an interesting chart:

http://porterfield-brakes.com/images/portrace2008_11_06_02_41_04.pdf 

The PDF has options for both disc and drums.

 

Has anyone used the R-41 compound on the front brakes with Volvo calipers
combined with the RD-7 shoes in the rear?

Nolan,

I can't provide a researched view, other than "depends on driving 
requirements and performance expectations" but in general carbon-based 
materials grab as well as sintered metal embedded brakes and have better 
fade resistance and are easier on the disc surface.  More an issue up 
front than at the rear of the roadster.

Turner Motorsports and a Nissan board compare them here:

Subject: [Roadsters] Treasure in the shed
Message-ID: <000001cd89e5$5bddc8b0$13995a10$@com>

Hello friends,

Yesterday after church we drove the big old flatbed truck to my
grandfather's home. The goal was to bring back the rest of the roadster
parts so we can get the car back up to speed. One of the things we found was
my childhood toy box. It had been hand painted safety orange (a project with
my grandfather when I was about 8) and then decorated with racing stickers I
collected over the next half dozen years.

 

Inside the box were treasures from my past. Saved copied of Mad Magazine,
Hot Rod, Drag Racing News.... Then there was one more that stood out. It is
a Datsun Roadster Review, April 1985 from the Datsun Roadster Association.
This wonderful little magazine was edited by Ross Mullen and full of
roadster details. There are advertisements from Rally Enterprises, Roadster
Restoration in Freemont, B.R.E. and others. The centerfold has an
announcement for the July 13-14 1985 West coast meet in Mount Shasta.

 

In the classifieds there are several roadsters like a 64 1500 for $600, a
one owner 68 all original for $2800 and a fully restored 64 for $3800.

 

I wonder if anyone has taken the time to scan these old magazines and share
them on the net. I will be happy to donate this one to the effort if someone
can post it somewhere.

 

Best regards,

Nolan

that looks awesome!! I THINK you can put a downdraft weber on those (like
the 510's)??

I don't think so, but what do i know...besides the fact that there is a
color chart on the 311s board.

I had a downdraft Weber on my '70 PL521. Anything (engine/tranny-wise) you can
do to a 510, you can do to a 521.

I also had a hotter cam and larger valves (from the L18). Still wasn't exactly
a road warrior, but I didn't have to worry about getting run over by the
tomato haulers going over Pacheco Pass between home and Sac when I was in
college...  ;^)

Nice truck, but (I think) somewhat overpriced at $4200. It should have a
L-16 in it, but I don't remember if the P/U trannies had the same gearsets
as the 510 sedans or wagons. The SW boxes had lower 1st and 2nd gears while
3rd and 4th were the same as the sedans. Off the top of my head I don't
remember what the rear end gears in these PUs were, but I recall they were
pretty low and used a solid axles setup like the Roadsters.

Within a year or so Datsun started selling an extended cab version with a
5-speed. I seem to remember that Mr. Katayama came up with that idea.

FWIW,
Ron

Gary,
what weber are you running? a 32/36, a 38/38 or a 40/40?

I had a 32/26 on my 72 bmw 2002 when i got it and wasn't really impressed
with it. Then i put a 38/38 on it, everyone talked about how much more gas
i was going to guzzle, etc. It took the cars fun factor up more than a few
notches. Oh and that 'extra gas'??? Yeah...so on a tank of gas i MAYBE used
an extra 1/3 of a gallon...it was so marginal, it was a shame more people
weren't riding w/them vs. the 32/36.

W/your setup, I'd bet you could really benefit from the 38/38.

Dave

HORRIBLE TIMING. :-(

I just bought a truck several weeks ago. I would probably rather have 
this Datto than the Jeep!

Ronnie ,

Your memory is wrong on what year the Datsun "King Cab" pickups came out 
. The 620 trucks came out the same 1/2 year of the last 521's in 1972 
.Still had the L-16 till 73 ,then went to the L-18 in 74 ,then to the 
L-20 75 thru 79 . The King cab came out in 1977 for
the first year . Believe it or not ,none of the Datsun trucks had Front 
disc brakes till 1978 ! The drum fronts where terrible ,especially went 
pulling a load and or going fast and having to Stop in a hurry . I know

To add to Ronnie's info the L16 powered 521 had 4.375 rear gears. The
earlier 520 & 320 trucks had 4.875 gears.

These were all alloy center sections H190 rears like the Roadster, but the
trucks use a different spline axle so they are not a direct swap.

If you change side gears to the correct spline the P/U center can be
swapped into a Roadster (or 510 wagon).

Here is a link to a post I did on the Ratsun message board detailing the
side gear swap. (sorry the pictures appear to be down).
http://community.ratsun.net/topic/17044-h190-differentials-wpictures/page__hl__%2Bh190+%2Bside+%2Bgear

Also check out the video links at the bottom of my initial post. These were
done by Mike Klotz and are extremely informative.

local guy contacted me, has these 3 vehicles...copy and paste... 



Patrol is a mess.started redneck restoration.. 
Thats welding in new metal and rolloing the whole body in bed liner. 
Its running corvette motor, chevy 4 speed with willies 2 stick transfer case. At least its indoors. 
Was told roadster 1600 conv was rare only 900 that year. Came from texas. 
Ran okay but girlfriend refused to even get in it.plus my head above windsheild never looked right. Had to take boots off to work the clutch 



the Z he says is rust free, ragged interior, injectors out...he bought it in Japan when he was in the militaryI 

he'd said the roadster was a 64 but hadn't looked at the title for 15 years, I figure it's probably a 65 



contact me offlist if interested in any of these, I could take a look for you- he's only about an hour away

521 Pickups came with different engines depending on when 
manufactured.  L521 pickups came with J13 engines and 4.88 
differential gears.  PL521 pickups came with L16 engines and 4.37 
differential gear.   The PL521 pickups came with rectangular side 
marker lamps front and rear.  The L521 pickups came with side 
reflectors.  The L520 pickup production ended in mid 1968.  The early 
L521 trucks were very similar to the L520 except for the sheet metal 
in front of the windshield.  PL521 pickups started with the 1970 model.

The pictures of the truck don't show any indication of side markers.

L520 dash tops were painted sheet metal while PL521 dash tops were 
vinyl and cracked in the normal manner.  It is possible to install a 
L520 dash top in a PL521 without much effort.

I never have a problem with that stuff 'cause the emails always say 
"work;"  I try hard to avoid work, unless it's on one of the cars.

  Read Dave's write up on 311s.org about the Victoria British TR6 headlight
wiring harness.  Has anybody actually used one in their roadster?  Stock
wiring uses one relay, the kit has two?  And just where is the connector on
the stock head light harness, under the hood, or under the dash?

  This started with the idea of just getting my side lights working again,
and like most roadster projects, is growing rapidly!

  The Victoria British harness can be seen at
http://www.victoriabritish.com/icatalog/tc/full.aspx?Page=157 .  And it
appears to be on sale for only $19.95 (311s.org article lists it at $29.95).

Tim,
you beat me to it. What kind of relay's are those? I was going to use Hella
ones, and the cheapest i could find them for is about 5-6 a piece.

I used one similar to this, I think it was made in china, so no Lucas issues.
Mine plugged into one of the original headlight sockets in the engine bay, to
trigger the lights and relays.  There is one relay for low beams and one for
highs.  I also added fuses in line to the battery, as my kit did not have
them.  Not sure if this one has them or not.  I put in a set of high power h4
beams and they work great.  The only troublesome part was taking the socket
apart to get it through the light housing.

The talk on 311 is about using led lights for better visibility and safety.
Seems the way to go to me. Cost $$ though

It is (and I can't wait to go that route). There are a few great
discussions about options for not only external lights but dash lights as
well.

But I THINK that this just for the headlights right?

I have not seen that post yet.  I did mine about two years, when the 7" rounds
were about $250 per bulb.  Not sure what they are now.

I did the dash lights, map lights, turns and brake lights, license plate and
reverse lights all in LED.

I totally rewired my roadster  using parts from britishwiring.com and
vintageconnections.com.  I didnbt' use any premade harnesses; just made my 
own.

works for me!

  Read Dave's write up on 311s.org about the Victoria British TR6 headlight
wiring harness.  Has anybody actually used one in their roadster?  Stock
wiring uses one relay, the kit has two?  And just where is the connector on
the stock head light harness, under the hood, or under the dash?

  This started with the idea of just getting my side lights working again,
and like most roadster projects, is growing rapidly!

  The Victoria British harness can be seen at
http://www.victoriabritish.com/icatalog/tc/full.aspx?Page=157 .  And it
appears to be on sale for only $19.95 (311s.org article lists it at $29.95).

there is a company - www.litezupp.com, that is here in texas, that makes 
replacement led lights for small cars.  pop in, work great, last a long 
time, generate very little heat, use very little energy, and are VERY 
bright.  highly recommended!

Hello friends.

We are chasing oil leaks in the roadster. The drive line seal in the rear
end has a small drip. Does anyone have the seal part number handy? Any
tips/suggestions on the easiest way to pull out the seal?

 

Best regards,

Nolan

Thank you Paul,

Thank you for the comments. That is interesting that you have found Redline
oil to stand out in the ability to find small places to drip from.

 

Yes, the car has been sitting a while (20+ years). I didn't want to try
something like a leak seal because of the clutch pack in the limited slip.
Nolie is trying to win a bet and drive the car in a little more than a week.
We may just go ahead and make a few laps around the neighborhood before
pulling the seal,

 

Best regards,

Nolan

  Whatever you do, don't run Red Line oil unless you fix that 'small' drip.
Red Line will make it a "BIG" drip.  Has the roadster been off the road for
awhile?  The seal may recover after a hundred miles or so.  And you might
want to try some leak seal first.  Tear down is a last resort.

It isn't terribly hard to do. Last time I checked, Nissan carried the seal. 
 Drop the drive shaft and remove the big nut holding the pinion yoke on. 
The yoke  will slide off and the seal can be removed and replaced. The yoke 
and nut go  back on. In theory you should be good to go. The possible snag is 
the pre load.  Using a ruler and a spring scale you can measure the pre 
load. If it is correct  life is good. If not there are spacers and shims between 
the yoke and  bearing that need adjusted. It is not a crush washer like 
many American units.  Mine ended up too tight and I fabricated a new spacer and 
lapped it down a  thousandth at a time until the pre load was correct. The 
real answer was to  add shims but I could not find any. If you are too loose 
there are quite  likely shims there that can be removed. Do not run with it 
too tight or you will  have a real job on your hands. Too loose is much 
less of an issue.

Group,

I've attempted to sell my son's 1985 Mazda RX-7 on e-bay twice in the last 3
weeks. Both times, the winning bidder turned out to be a scam wanting me to
send them money. When I reported both scammers to e-bay they said that this
type of scam is growing daily. Has anyone else had this type of scam
attempted on them? Just curious.

Thanks

Never good.
I actually was able to pick up my Datsun b/c the ebay buyer fell through. I
felt genuinely bad for Bob who was selling the car, but was grateful he
still offered the car to me.

Craigslist looks to have changed their system somewhat so you don't get as
many scam emails. Maybe try that route?

good luck w/your sale.

Hi all,

I'm looking for someone who knows something about roadsters to do a nice paint
job for me. I need a bit of bodywork done as well, but nothing major. Any
recommendations? I am in Claremont which is about 35 minutes east of LA. I'm
willing to travel some distance to get it done right.

Thanks!

Evan,

Is Simi Valley too far? The fellow I bought my 67.5 from owned a body 
shop there and did a spectacular job on my car. He removed the side 
moulding and filled in the indentation. You can't even tell it had been 
there.

The paint job is now about 20 years old, and except for a few bumps and 
scratches, looks very good.
The name of the shop is Newcastle Motors, 4320 E. Los Angeles Ave. Simi 
Valley, Ca 93063. (805) 584-2282. I don't remember the owner's name, but 
they still seem to be out there. He may still remember the red roadster 
he sold me. If I lived in the area I would not hesitate going back to 
him again. Only flaws I saw early on was that the just taped up the 
lights and sanded around them as well as possible. The first paint I had 
chipping was around the front turn signals. Pull the parts yourself and 
let them have at the body!

Peace,
Pat

Hello from France !
 
It's my first post.
 
I'm to buy what I identified as a 68' US specs Fairlady 1600.
 
It comes in red over black, + black hardtop.
 
It will be my very first Japanese car, even I'm very fond of such cars from 
 the 60's/70's, I've never been lucky enough to get one.
 
Got other Collectible cars, but never one of these.
 
I hope it will be at least a Summer driver.
 
The car has been sleeping for more than 30years on the French  Riviera, 
needs a new paint, chrome job, interior cleaning, and brakes  servicing.
 
+ some little other things that make the charm of any restoration projects  
!
 
However, I have a 1st quetion :
 
Does anybody could help me furtherly identify "my" car ?
 
There's no title, and no plates too.
 
The only things I have at the moment are the remains of a chassis  
identification plate and of an 81' tax revalidation sticker from Florida. (pics  
attached)
 
Am I right when I identify chassis number : 21579, and
 
engine number : 64523 ?
 
I would also like to know :
 
- its original color combo,
 
- if I can get a new chassis identification plate,
 
- if I can get any further history in the USA.
 
The story tells that the car was abandonned by his American former Owner  
down there.
 
Thx in advance.
 
Best regards.
 
Pascal.

Bonjour Pascal!
Welcome to the forum. Your questions can be answered here, but also on the
other forum at www.311s.org. There you can post a picture of your car.
You must take a photo of your car as you cruise the French Riviera, so
beautiful there!
Red was one of the original colors and the code to reproduce it is available.
Good luck with your redtoration of the car. There are some owners in the
Netherlands also.

Welcome, Pascal!

There is quite a bit of information around on these cars. Please refer to
http://www.datsunroadster.com/INFO_PAGES/identifying_your_car.htm
to try to identify your car. At times the paperwork shows a different 
year than the car, so it is a good idea to look at this site.

It sounds like you have a good amount of work to do, but most of us on 
this list have been through it.

Peace,
Pat

Pascal you have discovered an undervalued classic !
Best wishes in the repair and possible restoration of your car.|

They only came in a handful of colors, and the best places to look for
the "original" color include in the trunk, including under the plastic
mat beneath the spare tire. Many repainting jobs stop short of doing
the trunk.  There are probably areas on the firewall and the engine
side of the inner fenders where they wouldn't have sprayed, either,
such as under the little relays bolted to the inner fenders.

Hope to see pictures and the upcoming story on 311s.org

Good morning everyone,

I am trying to pare down my projects and have decided after MUCH thought
and consideration to sell SRL311-00402.  The car has the numbers matching
engine and non-smog head, correct gauges, seats with headrests, and repro
5-speed shift plate.  The car does not have the license plate trim and the
holes for the trim have been filled in but are present and could easily
drilled back in if you can find a trim-piece.  There is a dent in the
drivers side front fender, but I have a spare that will come with the car.

The car is not running and needs restoration.  It's located in Houston TX.
I am asking $4,000 - interested folks please email me OFF LIST for more
details, photos, etc.

Cheers
James Wiseman

All right gang, I went by and snapped some more photos tonight and took
stock of all the parts.  Here is a gallery of photos of the car:

http://reefpix.smugmug.com/Cars/67-2000-402

Here's a list of what's included with the car so it is absolutely clear:

Engine bay:

Original engine and non-smog head
5-speed
SU carbs and A cam
Decent used timing set (it's not all connected right now).  Will include
extra.
Water pump (it is off in the photos but shown)
Alternator
Extra set of SU carbs (in case you need parts)
Both radiator mounting brackets (only one shown in photo) and radiator
Harmonic balancer (crank pulley)
Water pump/fan pulley - 2 groove
Brake and clutch master
Engine bay wiring harness
Needs new header as original one is trashed

Body:
Body is rough but it's going to have to go into a body shop for a repaint
anyway and I will supply some replacement panels
Extra set of 67.5 front fenders w/ no rust through
Extra drivers side door  w/ no dents or rust through
Hood is decent and comes w/ scoop trim and letters
Rear deck lid is good (not shown in photos)
Floor pans need weld patch panels repair (source from Datsunparts or
sportsimports)
Patch panel repair needed under battery area
Tail light set included

Misc/Trim:
Bumpers included but not shown
Side trim set missing
Windshield frame decent
Sun visor hardware mounted on windshield frame
Wing windows
5-Speed repro shift plate
Soft top frame in good condition.  Needs new canvas
FULL set of gauges included.  Only "important ones" shown in photo but I
have them all

If you have any more questions please ask.  I want this car to go to a good
home and get put back on the road.  I'm just too overwhelmed w/ too many
projects (and 2 young boys!) to do it in the near future.

Cheers
James

Message-ID: <CACPDVqkooCgijvswu2FAGn=oU1KOqyAdKteVWi6rgqMF6H7E+Q@mail.gmail.com>

I have a complete Datsun Roadster Mikuni/Solex carb setup for sale. This is
the manifold, carbs, linkage, and air cleaners. These are the S5 type carbs
w/ adjustable float level.

The jetting is:

57.5 Pilots
150 Main Fuels
250 Air Correctors
40 Pump Jets
OA Jet blocks

Looking inside the carbs, they are in good shape and don't look like they
need any rebuilding. The setup is complete so all you would need is a
gasket and a heat shield and you would be good to go. I have a heat shield,
so I can make a paper template for a DIY heat shield so you won't have to
shell out for it :-)

Email me if interested and I can send through some photos.

Cheers

nice 240Z on BraingATrailer this morning, and in the video it appears that the
person who is gridded 4th/5th is Bill Wessel's roadster racecar.
Correct?
Good video, lotsa sawing on the wheel when letting off the gas.  Nice looking
car.  Wish it had a wink mirror like lots do, you can watch the race behind at
the same time, in the video (and see hwo is dicing for position, or getting
left in the dust)

That white roadster is John Wierz's at a Midwestern Council race.

I race against that 240z, great car that is very well sorted...very fast,
and a good price with all of those extras.

That white roadster is John
Wierz's at a Midwestern Council race.

I race against that 240z, great car
that is very well sorted...very fast,
and a good price with all of those
extras.

Okay here is one I have not seen on the list. A question.  Can I take a 1600's
differential and install the ring gear from a 2000? The 1600 is 9:35 (4.88)
((pinion to ring gear)) and the 2000 is 10:37 (3.70) ((pinion to ring gear)).
The result would give me a 9:37 (4.11). Will it work, or what would I need to
do to make it work? My 1600's cam puts the power range above 3K, so starting
on a hill involves much clutch slipping.
