I'm seeing this 8 years later, but I'm in Indy.

Also, just to clarify, I'm wanting to put B210 rear seats into my B310.

Ya, you're right - I got that mixed up. It says that B110 and B210 seats have no practical difference, but nothing saying the B310 seats fit, just the picture. I assumed B210 seats should fit, but I feel better about it now with your input. Thanks, Mike.

Are they compatible? Datsun1200.com says B110 and B210 seats are interchangeable, and also that B310 seats can be swapped into either a B110 or B210, but doesn't mention if B310 rear seats are actually the same dimensions. It seems like they would be, but I'm not certain. http://datsun1200.com/modules/mediawiki/index.php?title=Rear_Seat I may have an opportunity to grab some stock B210 rear seats, but I don't want to spend the money if they don't fit. I got rid of my stock seats (front and rear) over 10 years ago. Gave them away. Because I'm an idiot. Now I have a chance to at least get something similar back. Thanks!

Thanks for all the great info guys. I'm going to check the car out tomorrow and determine if it's worth buying and what rear end is actually in it.

I suppose that could be. He's not really a Datsun guy from what I can tell. he just had the car as a beater and drove it for a while until he got something else.

Nice! I was hoping so. The guy with the car claims that the rear end has drum brakes and what I've read says that rear end has disc brakes, so I'm not sure what that's about.

I read on one of the Datsun1200 wiki pages that the H165 was a direct swap for the H150 in the B310(210). I guess I just need some clarification. Does "direct swap" mean bolt-in, with no modifications needed? If I could pop that bad boy in there without having to mod my driveshaft that would be awesome.

My brain hurts. I read in the first thread that an s110 bolts in for the most part. What car does that come from? Does anything bolt in? My problem is that I'm on a budget and I don't have knowledge or access to any of these fancy machine tools.

COOCHaDAMus, do have any pictures of your setup?

Getn67, is there any certain year of 240sx that has the s13 rear end? Does it pretty much bolt in or is there some fab involved?

Even if I do get this setup I'm going to have to change out my already-worn rear end. I sure would like an h190 but I don't know how I'm gonna find one.

Well, J-boy I don't think i'm going to be letting the Weber go just yet. It's always good to have a backup in case some other venture doesn't go as planned. I've been looking into this R1 setup a bit and I think it may be the way I'll go. The problem is finding someone to make the manifold. So far, I don't have a guy here in town that can build one; I've emailed someone that apparently makes these (found their email on Ratsun) and messaged a fellow Ratsun member that makes them out of billet as well. Hopefully something will turn up.

Do you know of anyone else who has done this? It seems like a good idea but I don't think i've seen another datsun owner with this setup.

I kinda like your solution, Kirden. I had a chance a couple years ago to buy an a15 from a guy in my county for 100 bucks and at the time I was broke. Wish I had it now so I could something like what you're talking about and drop it in. Thanks everyone for the feedback.
