I can help you with the pedals of a righthand drive, clutch is left and the gas is on the right, here in SA we all have righthand drives and the 5 speed is standard
on the 1400 ute.
see ya

ok, sorry bro :) fanta is an orange coloured soft drink made by cocacola... it tastes real nice :)
the pedal arrangement is exactly the same, clutch left, brake middle, and the go pedal is in the right. yeah, i have driven left hand drive cars and it feels real weird, but after a
couple hours constant its no different, we are a compliencing agent, my work thats is, so sometimes someone will decide to import a mustang a corvette or someother muscle car and i
will have to drive it.
the only real differences, apart from being on the wrong side is the gear stick, that takes some co-ordination :)
have a good one eh :)

Chris, I don't think that owning a 1200 is a requirement for being in this club, just a love for them. I am sure you qualify.

I have a few questions that I hope someone can answer. First one is for you Chris.

What's a fanta? Is that the grapefruit soft drink or some type of octane boost? Hell, I have a hard time knowing when some of you guys are making a joke or when ya'll are serious. I am
learning that there is a major difference in English slang from America, UK, NZ and Austraila and sometimes it is very confusing. It was easier for me communicating in Barcelona than it was in
London and I don't speak Spanish too well.

Next, I am confused about the transmissions from the 120Y/B210 in Australia. They all have cable clutches, correct. 5-speeds are rare there also, correct. I don't ever remember a 4-speed in
the B210s here in the USA (except in the A13 B210s of 1974), just 5-speeds and autos. The 1200 Sunny here was a high performance model that had the 5-speed but that was the only factory 5-
speed that I have ever seen in the 1200. All other 5-speeds were put in from B210s. In both 1200s and B210/210s here, all were hydraulic clutches. Someone that knows more than me may correct
me on all this, I am just going on what I have observed and think I remember.

Another question. On the right hand drive 1200s, how are the foot pedals arranged? Is the gas pedal on the right and the clutch on the left or is the gas pedal on the left with the clutch on
the right? I have never been in a right side drive car.

hey mareo, thanks man :) my works of engineering greatness are looking good, once we get our cd player fixed i can load on the scanner :) i wrecked the cd player cause i leave it open and get
up, its beside my leg... yeah, im concentrating on my theory of fanta being the perfect medium to inject into the manifold, oh yeah, just to avoid any confusion, over here in NZ they have
added different flavours to the fanta name, which isnt on, as fanta has always been orange, thats what its called, we shouldnt play around with stuff like that, you never know what might be
stuffed up. anyways, reason 1: it looks cool, 2: im working on more reasons, but im a keen fan of fanta. fan... ? fanta... ? hmmm for compleate atomisation of the fanta molecule nucluis a
exhaust powered fan, or turbine could be employed to atomise the fanta molecule, at approximatly 8 litres per minuite, thus fully abstaining the engine from pinking!!! remember fanta + fuel +
air + more fanta = no pinking!!! as fanta is orange!!! ha ha! im a genius!
i had better go now or someone will kill me im sure.
choice from chris.
lol, sorry guys... i didnt have any dogs, but my cat used to beat me up...

i like you.

Lemme get this straight...are you really asking to be re-admitted to the club Chris? After what you did? You're doing 5 to 10 in Datsunless Land bro. Our New Zealand chapter is on
to you - makin' sure you do that Primera detention - so no weaslin' out or Hastings goin' under siege. Peace out bro.

come on man this is not good therapy for me.
i shouldnt have sold it, i shouldnt have sold it, i shouldnt have sold it, man. i remember the first time i saw my datto, man. beautiful, the way the rear end curves from the side to the
rear window... man. the feeling of power after i changed the air filter for a new one, that was just before the engine got re-built :) i used to smoke out the street as i would refuse to
go anywhere untill my baby was warmed up :) it turned out that number 2 piston was cracked...
but once we got a new set out of auckland, man, yeah. if i see another coupe i think i will get it. life is crazy. straight up never sell your datto unless you have to.
choice from chris.
ps yeah man i know what you mean about peugout man, and audi's? man, what the hell is going on there? freaky. hehe, one of the guys i went to tec with works at a peugout dealership... lol
