The guy just emailed me to confirm the box has 63a #2 casting. It has been modified to accepy cable clutch. Good luck whoever gets it. It's worth it.

63a gearbos for an A series.

I would prefer to spend a sh!tload more money on a datsun item, rather than putting anything from another manufacturer in my car.

That box is only a 60 series and it is at the time of this post at $700. The 63a is basically an L series box for an A series. There is no better factory box.

USA 5 speed

so you wouldnt put a quaife or a hollinger box in any of your cars?

63a's are only an L series box adapted for an A series. Personally as good as they are (and they are good boxes) i dont think they are worth that sort of money. In racing you put in whatever gearbox is goona suit your car/racing....

For the Datsun "purists" as the lads like to be referred to won't put anything in that is not datto. I had a 63 behind my L and it took a beating. I replaced it with a R30 box and 2nd is not doing flash. I'll agree that $1200 is steep but when 60 series are pulling $1K plus then it seems like a bargain given the actual difference. And easier to get parts for at this stage anyway.
