Welcome James - it's great to have someone with the 1200's old man as a ride. We love our heritage!<br>There are a lot of knowledgeable members in this club ...
G'DAY all, proud to be a new member of the mighty datto club!!! I'll get around to posting pics soon . I've owned a few 1200s , a coupe (written off) a few ...
Hi,<br> Is a B-210 5-Speed the best to swap into a 1200? (I'm already used to first gear being to the lower left anyway!) I'd like to do the work myself and...
The 5 speed will bolt right on but if it is the 5 speed with the reverse to the upper left you may have to get a different clutch plate assy. because I think...
Ive used both styles of 5spds and they mount up the same way. You should buy a clutch disk for a B210 because i think the splines on the input shaft are ...
Hello 1200 fanatics,<br> It's just my opinion, but the 5 speed with reverse in the upper left hand corner is awful, making the 1-2 power shift (perhaps the ...
hi,<br> welcome. Thats one wild coupe your building there, my 1000 coupe has an A12 in it and is a lot of fun to drive. There's a couple of pics of it in the...
I just fitted a 210 dogleg 5 speed to my coupe a few weeks ago. The mounts were a bit of a pain as they about 2 inchs back from the origanal 1200's mounts....
G'days to the new members. Alltho i all ready know James from the OZdat list. Bodgetek, sounds like a weapon if u decide for a rotary 1200 ute. I love the...
i have 200B calipers on my ute, and after installing and bleeding them, the right hand one wont release...this is a problem cos i would like my wheels to roll....
I would rip them off and put a rebuild kit thru it. Clean them right up and see what happens. I would never put on old calipers from a wrecker straight onto a...
Speaking of Calipers, has anyone on the list ever installed disk brakes onto a B10 (1000) ?<br>Since they don't have struts, I believe a caliper mount has to...
Hi,<br>You could use 1200 hubs/disks, they should bolt straight on. You'd have to make the caliper mounts yourself or have them made. Hope this helps.<br>...
Hi,<br>I'm intrested to know what type/hp motors you used in your electric dattos. I'm guessing they are DC shunt wound, kind of like a starter motor....
Yeah Linc you'll probably find that there is a bit of corrosion on the bore that is preventing the piston from returning. Pull both calipers off, remove the...
Well it's a bit embarassing to admit that I had trouble sleeping last night - kept thinking I might be seeing THE BATHHURST coupe today! It's amazing how these...
no special tools, but a bit of know how helps cause if you screw up then you could be driving along and find you have no brakes. youve got to be real clean and...
Hello all. I have just joined your club.<br>I have a 1973 1200 coupe(my tinker toy)<br>that I've owned since 1982 the poor thing <br>is just now back on the...
I had to cut out the original tranny mounts<br>to fit a reverse up 5 speed in and fabricate<br>new ones.also had to replace the clutch disc<br>and drive shaft ...
Linc<br>your caliper piston is seizing. Stop Master Brakes do a caliper seal kit for around $15 and a seal and piston kit for around $30. It's a cheap fix that...
Welcome to the 1200 club! Im sure you will get your 1200 up and going hard again soon. Everyone here is more than happy to talk about just about anything...
Hey there, always good to see a new 1000 owner,<br>I own a 1000 4 door sedan and a ute.<br>The sedan runs an A14, but is currently off the road, for a few more...
If the seals don't look distorted you may still get away with it as I have done so on some occasions with Fiats as the kits can be hard to get at times and ...
Keep it all clean. The biggest trick if you like can be with removing the piston. If you don't bring it out square to the bore it can sometimes jam and be...
Has anyone ever seen an A series motor with a toothed belt drive for the water pump and alternator. I am currently making one. I have sourced a water pump and...
