IS IT IN YOURmR30?

[works 510]

All Lseries boxes will bolt up, just having them to suit cars is a different story.

Datsun 1600, stanza and r30 use short type boxes while the rest have longer ones. To fit a long box you'll need a shortend tailshaft, a new shifter hole sitting further back(also might have centre console probs in a r30? ) and a new gearbox crossmember.

CA SR and Rb boxes can also be used with a Lseries bellhousing, Lseries mainshaft or laygear bearing. These boxes also will need a shortend tailshaft and shifter hole further back than a 240k, zed long gearbox due to the shifter sitting further over the output shaft.

An l18 gearbox from a 510 would fit but it wouldn't be a 5 speed unless someone has already put in an r30 or a stanza dog leg box . I just used those cars to say what has the short box.

there was a 5spd in the 180B SSS.

I wouldn't use a 4cyl L series box behind the 6cyl. They're smaller and weaker.

Yeah its a 5 speed but not a stumpy

wasn't that already covered?

while we are being pedantic, Aus 1600's (PL510) did not come with L18s or 5spds. JDM HL510 did though.
