as opposed to reading the entire thing (i'm LaZ)... i'm gonna tell you what i did with my '83 B11...
2) installed the carb off'n a 1980 datsun 210 w/ A14 (BOLT for BOLT!) this eliminates all the ECC crap, although the fuel cut-off solenoid is still there (attach to "on" position of ignition system...). NOTE: with a little effort (that i didn't want to expend, i'm LaZ) you can adapt an older datsun 510 (i think) carb to an E16 manifold... the main issue is the throttle linkage)

***** Thanks for adding your B11 experience to this thread.

I think this kind of in-depth post is of great value to the boards. Interestingly, you and I have gone down a lot of the same roads.

The 210 carb swap offers no real H.P. advantage though. The 510 carb surely would. Anything that's slightly bigger than stock will help, as long as you open up the carb flange in the intake to match.

As already posted earlier in this thread, they're diesel brakes. They work really well, and still allow the use of 13" wheels.
