hi people, im going for a longshot here, does anyone have a 63a tailshaft lying around that they would sell ?
Either that or a Stanza tailshaft from a 5 speed model stanza, this ive read can be shortened to fit into a 1200 running a 63a box.
im on holidays and really want to get all my 63a parts together and ready for install...
I understand the H145 and H165 have a different connection to the tailshaft, but I have both diff's, so could change to the 165 if really needed.

cheers

dissy must be in wrong, it has to be put in correctly at TDC (top dead centre). theres probably an article in the tech section about how to do it, else google knows everything. not hard u just need a big (26 is it?) size spanner to turn over the motor manually. dont try this yourself for the first time, unless youve read up on it at least.
new points is a good idea (why not a new distributor cap and rotor at well), the points should be put in and tuned by someone who knows what theyre doing. a timing gun will be needed to get initial timing right. if you have a 1200 manual it should tell you how to do a lot of this stuff. goodluck!

lucky finding an a14 in a wagon! go the wagons.

you will find info about the 5 speed in the tech section, or when you enter information into this



diff u can use a tube of molybond to shutit up for a while then replace with an H145 or H165 axle from any 1200.

nice choice of two cars! they dont look bad together...

(well GTR/S's and 1200's in general anyway ) no i dont own the GTR but were always fighting for primo parking spots here in this westfield carpark...
p.s. chuck your location into your 'View Account' thingy so everyone knows where u are. (zimbabwe for all we knew)

hmm wierd i was just about to put up a post about this but ill say it here!

i picked up my regraphed and modified N12 dissy from Jeff Taylor today. It was sent away, regraphed and tightened up, cleaned etc to a brand new looking state. I opened my bonnet and we threw it in. Previously I had been using a N12 dissy without re-graphing and it worked fine, for months! The advance however was not so good.

The mounting plate I had was pretty average. Best to use the pictures found on this site, take an old a12 dissy mounting plate, weld on the extra arm and drill it out to allow the advance to be manually set. Make sure the bit you weld on is not sitting LOWER than the surface touching the motor, this will hold the whole dissy at a funny angle!

Also there was too much play in my dissys actual rod or shaft. Jeff fixed it so there is NO play in the shaft (wobble the bottom of your N12 dissy where the A series cog is. If it moves it is quite bad.) Mine previously had vertical play but no horizontal play, and did no known damage to my motor.

The timing is now perfected a bit more, in that the self-advancing occurs inside the dissy, and progresses properly, whereas before it wasnt doing this properly. I have more torque throughout the rev band now which is definitely an improvement, more than just the parts of torque I was getting before. My timing is just on 14-15 and goes out to around 30 at 5k rpm.

In my opinion bang for buck (and considering you DO want to get rid of points (otherwise id definitely say the jaycar HEI kit)) you should just get a hall effect sensor like the Fireball units, then you have no points to burn, same cheap old dissy which works fine! There are lots of kits available now. Also uses 12V system!
Next best would be the N12 with or without regraphing (can cost a bit new when regraphed).
Then the best is the datrats beast, bluebird electronic dissy..

ebay is the best. ive bought like 77 random things (incl some datto parts) with NO probs at all..

call this guy

surely he will have a head he can sell you. might even be able to talk you into using webers too


as for an upgrade for the a12, my dcoe upgrade went v well! [1 2] once tuned she produced good power, although back then i didnt even try to rev past 5.. it was stock and went to late6k rpm on the dyno.

-ive got a stock N13 carby setup with an auto choke, jetted for an a15.. 4 sale if u want it
-single weber manifolds for oval port v hard to find
-twin manifolds and webers are everywhere + on ebay
-twin su's seem too tricky to setup.. unless you can buy some tuned. flat tops r better ive heard. (hitachi ones) use heat shielding!
-nice quad motorcycle carbys hard to find
-efi + everything too expensive

then again someone on this site might be able to sell you webers or su's.. ?

edit : duh forgot 32/36 down draft weber! theyre everywhere too.
