When shopping for a new clutch choose one for B110 or B310 with A12, A14 or A15 engine. Originally these used different specifications, but now Nissan sells one disc and one cover for all A-series engines. The only one that is different is B210 5-speed, which uses a unique clutch disc.

Flywheel Surface Inspection

Yes, you should resurface the flywheel if it is not in good shape!!! Better to not re-grind the flywheel if it doesn't need it.

It is not indicated to turn the flywheel UNLESS cracks appear, or it is not flat (worn unevenly), or the surface is burnt (heavy glazing). Guys will tell you "it is cheap insurance" to machine the flywheel clutch surface regardless, but that's not what the Datsun factory service manual says.

Wash ... in suitable cleaning solution to remove dirt and grease ... Check friction surface of flywheel and pressure plate for scoring or roughness. Slight roughness may be smoothed by using fine emery cloth. If surface is deeply scored or grooved, the part should be replaced.

- 1980 B310 service manual

If it is warped, have it resurfaced. It is it burnt, chattered, or is grooved, resurfacing is called for. But it if still worked great, is flat, and not burnt, don't bother. The Nissan factory service manual does not recommend a resurface unless needed. Every time my Datsun flywheel did not look great, I should have resurfaced it. And everytime it looked great and I didn't resurface it, all was fine.

Clutch Cover

C0210-H3120 Clutch Cover $112.63 USD
* supercedes all previous A-series covers

The new cover replaces all prior, and is heavy duty enough for A14/A15. Unfortunately, they no longer offer the Datsun 1200-spec cover (pressure plate) for easy clutch operation.

As with Nissan, aftermarket clutches are heavier duty, requiring increased pedal effort.

Type: C180S (for A12,A13,A14,A15,A12A except FWD)
* Also fits E13,E15S,E16,CD17 FWD to 1986, including N10 310/Pulsar and B11 Sentra/Sunny

Clamping Force
* Datsun 1000: 320kg
* Datsun 1200: ? pounds
* B210 A12: 616 pounds
* B210 A13: 694 pounds
* B210 A14: 794 pounds
* B310 A12A: 573-684 pounds
* B310 14/A15: 739-849 pounds

Tightening Torque

* Clutch cover bolts: 1.5 - 2.2 kg-m (10.8 - 15.9 ft. lb.)
* 1974 & up: 12-15 ft. lb.

Clutch Release Bearing

See main article Release Lever

Pilot Bushing

See Pilot Bushing

Alignment Tool

A clutch alignment tool is a must if you want the transmission to slide right onto the engine with no hassles.

Clutch Alignment Tool (wood, plastic or metal)
* O.D. 13/16", 18 Splines 
* DORMAN 14502 $2.58

The tool aligns the clutch splines with the Pilot Bushing
Album 23558

Tighten the cover bolts while tool is inserted
Album 23559

Now the engine and transmission will easily fit together!

Clutch Kit

Clutch Kit includes clutch Pressure Plate & Driven Disc + release bearing. Sometimes you get the pilot bearing and an alignment tool.

Rear Engine Plate

3.5mm rear engine plate (between engine and transmission), used by some (but not all) A-series engines
album

The plate is only used by certain combinations, for example with a short transmission (56A or 60-series) and short Release Bearing sleeve.

The plate is in no way required. It can help with NVH, but it is not needed. E.g. you can use a long bearing sleeve with the 56A and leave the plate off. For more details see Release Bearing Sleeve.

L-series clutch on A-series flywheel

There is enough room on the A-series flywheel to machine it for the medium-size (200mm) L-series clutch, such as found on the L16 engine. NOTE: The L14 clutch is the same size as the A-series clutch (180mm).
