Do you really need a booster? A Datsun isn't really that heavy.

Chrysler/Mitsubishi LA/LB Lancer Booster and Master Cylinder is a good fit.

Please use the search bar.

If the Coupe is standard I do not see any reason for a booster at all. They are a very light car and unlike the early utes and sedans benefit greatly from having a disc brake front end.

thanks Ken

Millions of women all over the world have driven our beloved small Datsuns for over thirty five years without the need for brake boosters, yet they survived, & so did most of the cars. Driving technique plays an important role in this & learning to back off the throttle at the right time is a good start.

My wifes 1000 with "improved" 1200 ran unboosted drums, as did my 1000 sedan with warm 1200GX & five speed. Neither car was crashed in a period of ownership covering twenty five years.
My mother in law drove a stock Datsun 1000 for years without needing a brake booster, & my 1200 ute survived in both drum & disk braked form too.

By all means fit a booster, but if your wife's driving skill is the best excuse you can find, then teaching her to drive will save some money & effort.
