Sprinter diff AE86 is probably less than 2 inches wider. Depending on tyre size you don't have to flare the guards.
I put 13" wheels and used 4wd rubber flares ($75) to keep the police off my back.
Had to curt off the panghard rod and sway bar mounts to fit my exhaust and shockies in, but the datto is so light in the rear they are not essential'cheers

Wogboy
Don't have to cut the tunnel, I put in a t50 5 speed, just cut off the two mounts in the tunnel, cleanly and the box fits perrrfectly.
For a crossmember I made up a bracket, pics soon, but the toyota crossmember should fit ok, some mods.
Speedo screws straight on
but with the toyota sprinter diff my speedo reads 70mph and I am doing about 100kph.
The thing is awesome..

Finally the B******* thing is finished
couldn't fit the fuel injection in and have brake booster so fitted twin side-drafts
WOW the thing goes like a rocket
I put in Toyota sprinter running gear (diff, 5 speed 1600 twin cam, radiator)
took 4 months on the weekends, the wife even still loves me.
Got the car passed for rego yesterday.
I hid the bonnet pull and hoped the rego guy wouldn;t notice when he test drove it.
He noticed.
He replied.
Thats the first time I ever saw a Datsun motor that startys with a "T" (Toyota)
But it was worth it in the end.
Pictures next week.

If you love your sanity..don't do it
Most 4age's inot 1200's are left hand drives
the 4age likes fuek injection and it wont fit in in you have a brake booster
you will have problems with a hydraulic clutch
so far I have spent $3500 doing everything myself aand still have 3 or 4 weekends work left
I should have put the money into a worked A15 and 5 speed.
If you decide to go ahead contact me...but dont do it

The lancer booster may work..What model?

if not the vh44 may be the best option
Thanks fellas

Any ideas on a small brake booster for a datto 1200
I am mounting a 4AGE fuel injected twin cam and have had to remove booster to fit the damn thing in
??? This is a right hand drive car (Australia)

Help
I got myselfa 4aGE and t50 5 speed for the datsun 1200 ute
The toyota 5 speed is hydraulic clutch
anyone know of a simple conversion to cable clutch

Anyone know if there is a clutch cable problem with the Datto 1200 and the toyota sprinter 5 speed(hydraulic)?
how do you overcome the problem cheaply?

Can anyone tell me if lowering blocks are legal in NSW (Australia) ?
I'd hate to do the job and end up in the ####

Thanks
I work on the principal
If you wake up dumb enough you learn something new..every day
