A Brake Booster was fitted to many disc-brake B210s, including most 1976-1978 120Ys and all USA models. The booster was added to counter the increased weight of these models. It is a very small 4.5 inch diameter model. This booster is not a direct bolt-in for a (Datsun 1200) as the mounting points are different. It can be fitted to a Datsun 1200 with small modifications.

Overview
B210 (including later 120Y) models that use a brake booster use a type M45 Master-Vac with 4.5 inch vacuum diaphragm. It is the same as the 610/180B booster except for a different vacuum hose fitting. It can be fitted to a Datsun 1200 with small modifications.
The booster setup includes:
- a Front Spacer, a thin (20 cm) aluminum adapter so that a 2-bolt vertical pattern Brake master cylinder can be fitted
- 4-bolt rear mounting to firewall
- a Rear Spacer, a thick rectangular aluminum unit (45 mm thick). It fits between the booster and the firewall.
B310 vs B210 style
- B310 has horizontal bolt-pattern master cylinder, Booster M60 (6" diameter)
- B210 has vertical bolt-pattern master cylinder, Booster M45 (4.5" diameter, 5.5" overall)
Use in B110
Required parts:
- B210 Booster
- B210 Master Cylinder & adapter
- Firewall spacer/adapter
The B210 and B310 booster mounts to the firewall with 4 bolts, whereas Datsun 1200 (B110) has only two bolts drilled in the firewall. The shape of the firewall also differs.
- drill larger center hole in firewall
- Use B210 firewall spacer
- drill two extra mounting holes in firewall
- change pedal box to new style

JDM
Late JDM B210s of GX and GL trim (from April 1975) were fitted with Disc front brakes. A brake booster was standard for GX, optional with GL. The booster is a very small diameter, the M45 Master Vac, same basic type as used in the 510 and 610.
Note that B210 (1976-1978) models without booster used a 2-bolt to 4-bolt adapter plate (thin sheet metal type). 1974-1975 models did not use this.

All North American B210s were fitted with Disc Front Brakes and a very small M45 brake booster. This is the entire brake system of PB110 (Sunny Excellent) specification for 1974-1975 models.
