Synchronizers let you shift gears without grinding.

2 Warner Vs Porsche Type Synchros
3 Gearbox
4 Part Number
5 Comparison

Overview

Synchro is two cones pressed together until the two shafts run the same speed:

Each gear has a syncho face (external cone) machined with it

The hub is spring loaded so when you move the shifter partway, it presses the baulk ring (internal cone part) against the gear cone.

When they have slowed down to the same speed, the shifter will move all the way in. It happens very quickly, unless the synchros are worn and not working well.

Synchro is basically:

Each synchro set services two gears (arrows). Center arrow points to the Coupling Sleeve

The Coupling Sleeve is what the shifter moves.

The hub is keyed to the mainshaft, so the hub sleeve rotates constantly in the Shift Fork while the car is moving.

The spring lets the hub move side-to-side inside the Coupling Sleeve, but not move too far. On this one there is a total of about 1/4" (5mm) total movement possible. The baulk ring, which fits in the hub, is pushed against the gear cone. Once the two shafts are synchronized, the spring pops the dog teeth together.

Warner Vs Porsche Type Synchros

F5C56A 5-speed has very different synchros from the 4-speed. It has competition type synchros (the "C" in F5C56A) which are very different: instead of a brass baulk ring, it has two split rings. Both types have a conical section to them. They are the same type as early Roadster 'servo' type but smaller size.

4-speed: W56 'W' Warner (Borg Warner) BRONZE baulk-ring type syncromesh 
5-speed: C56 'C' Type STEEL Porsche split-ring synchromesh.

4-speed: W56 'W' BRONZE baulk-ring type syncromesh

5-speed was never available in pre-56A form (was designed from the go with improvements over the original 56L 4-speed)
Used steel "competition" (Porsche type) synchros in F5C56A form
Datsun Competition in one instance mentioned warner type synchros (F5W56A). However, other Datsun sources such as the B110 and B210 parts catalogs only list F5C56(A) and Porsche type synchros
Datsun Model Series B210 parts catalog (Japan market)

1984 Nissan Competition Catalog:

The 5-speed transmission (FS5C56A) was originally installed on certain non-USA models of the 1200 ... The synchro mechanism is the servo-type (steel).

Pitroad will convert your F5C56A to Warner synchros for 559,000 yen

Per B10 parts catalog, 180 is interchangeable with H10, however the B110 catalog makes no indication of this.

       Thickness   7.8  8.2 mm

Per Ningbo, the dimensions differ slightly from H10

* 32604-H1000 Baulk Ring
* 32604-H1010 alternate supplier
* 32604-H7300 > H10

H73 may be used to replace H10, but not vice-versa.

Per Nissan Parts, the original H10 synchros were "replaced" by the #H90 part, however the dimension are different.

Some vendors list a 32604-H1001, however it differs from H1000 and it is unknow if this is an actual Nissan listing

cone part max dia   53  52.3

Inspection

Place the baulk ring over the gear and push down to seat it, then measure the clearance between the teeth. Too little clearance is probably caused by a worn ring.

Normal: 1.05-1.40 mm
Limit:  0.50 mm
