DatEz Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 Are you sure its a 36mm? I cant find one anywhere, it goes 30,32,34,38mm. Also, the ears on the transmission that you recommend cutting off, isn't that there the bolt go for the rubber mount on the trans? 1 Quote Link to comment
datson4life Posted January 11, 2017 Report Share Posted January 11, 2017 Im sure 34 mm will work fine. And no. Those tabs are absolutely useless on the 521. They bolt to nothing 1 Quote Link to comment

Datfish Posted January 23, 2017 Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 Are the back wheels 15x11 also? What offset? They fit well. 1 Quote Link to comment
DatEz Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 Did you have to create your own clutch hard lines? is that the stock 521 clutch slave? 1 Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 Use the stock slave and lines. The clutch arm should be in about the same position as the original one. The KA slave cylinder is angled and hits the torsion bar (at least on a 620) 2 Quote Link to comment
Lockleaf Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 There are a couple different KA slave cylinders. I'm pretty sure they all interchange, but have different bleeder and hose connection locations. S13 240sx D21 4wd D21 2wd In case that's helpful. 1 Quote Link to comment

dat nasty Posted January 28, 2017 Report Share Posted January 28, 2017 Ive never had a de but ive changed pick up/pan from front to rear mount in e's,is there a reason you cant go rear to front on a de? 1 Quote Link to comment
Ed-datsun521 Posted February 20, 2017 Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 Make sure your MAF is in good condition or it will become a pain in the ass easy to fix by opening it up and soldering the pins ( they often crack there ) specially with Datsun vibrations It has tons of power !

DaveM Posted April 18, 2017 Report Share Posted April 18, 2017 Carlos, Mark (Blackmarkit) says, "You will need to clearence you transmission tunnel to get the transmission at the correct angle" Your initial post says it doesn't need to be clearanced. So, which is it? ;) 1 Quote Link to comment
uberkevin Posted April 18, 2017 Report Share Posted April 18, 2017 I definitely had to cut some of my tunnel. Maybe 3 or 4 inches. 1 Quote Link to comment
konig209 Posted April 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2017 I didnt cut any. Just got lucky idk i think my cab "may" have bigger cab mounts raising it enough to clear. The reason i say this is because me and my buddy both pulled our torsion bars out. He tucked a 15x8 wheel on a 195 45 tire. My truck sat about an inch higher than his. Also updates. My buddy justin can de-pin and set up the harness to wire in very easy and no need for the can am box. 5 wires and done. Fully tucked too. Relays and new loom. Regular loom $300 Mesh loom for cleaner look $350 Harness 2017-04-18_10-13-36 by Carlos Ortiz, on Flickr Fully wired in 20170327_174001 by Carlos Ortiz, on Flickr 4 Quote Link to comment

Phixius Posted April 19, 2017 Report Share Posted April 19, 2017 This is a ka24de swap into a 71 521. In regards to the transmission. This is using a hardbody ka24e transmission and black market mounts. Way shorter than the 240sx trans. So you can keep your bench seat...

konig209 Posted April 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2017 I will be posting his info on the first post. Location Name Phone number Whoever wants it talks to him. Not me. Who ever is serious will have read the first post top to bottom and see the info. 2 Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted April 19, 2017 Report Share Posted April 19, 2017 Nice to see how that Hardbody transmission sits. The 720 transmission looks like the best option for keeping stock floors. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
DaveM Posted April 25, 2017 Report Share Posted April 25, 2017 Okay Carlos, I looked three times. I know you loathe people who don't read things but for the life of me I can't find Justin's contact info for the wiring harness you posted. Am I stupid (don't answer that) or did you not get a chance to post it yet? ;) 1 Quote Link to comment
