hey i was just wondering if either an A14 or A15 engine conversion was a good option, easy conversion, legal where i am (brisbane, AUSTRALIA), and cheap for my datsun sunny gl 1981 model????

ive had lots of other plans for my dato but ive decided 2 stick wif the A series engines :P

well any input.comments/advice wud b greatly appreciated

thanks,
maztec

just to help sunny wagons had A15's or A14's

grab a radiator out of an early gemi for a reasonable radiator up grade and bolt it all in its that simple

fit a two inch engine pipe and 1 3/4 system

and if your feeling realy keen bolt on a falcon weber and have loads of fun oh and run it on premiume with about 12 degres static timing

ahh ok then... ive got a sedan and its only got an A12 in it...... so im seriously looking to upgrade it.. im sure if the wagons had one in them the sedans could fit one in them...

yes ive done this conversions its not actually a conversion as far as im concerned

Im in brissie to. It is the easiest conversion. Bolts in.

hell yea :D im guna do that then...... so its no hassles at all??? or jus need 2 change a few things????

The hrdest part is finding a good A15/14 the rest is disconnect , unbolt , change engines
while you have the A12 out change the flywheel over , by running the A12 flywheel you dont have to change the throw-out bearing carrier( on the front of the gearbox)
Different thickness flywheels have a corresponding carrier I have found three different length carriers so far!
The A12 are slightly lighter as well which is a bonus.
Good luck

ahh ok then.... well thanks for the input people... ill start lookin for an A14 or A15 right away..... if i knew it was that easy i wuda been lookin earlier lol!

ill keep yas updated on my dato sunny..... (atm im fixin up the interior [black wif orange accessories and outlines], and sanding down the body redy to be painted an orange [yet to choose which orange], and also gotta get sum rust cut out and weld the hand brake back in)

thanks,

where do you look for an A14/A15? which cars did datsun/nissan decide to put them in for the aussie market?

Can still sometimes get them from importers.
BUt I reckon the best way to get one would be to put an ad up on ozdat to say that you want one.
Or if one is on ozdat to buy that... probably the cheapest way at least... BUt then again... you dont know what you are getting.
