The Toyota box does require major cutting in a Sprite. I have that
conversion in my Austin A40 coupled to a 1275. In a Sprite there would
have to be a new tunnel made or serious mods made to the existing
tunnel.
The Datsun 210 requires only minor denting of the heater/battery box,
this can be avoided if you install the tranny first and then the engine.
No fun but possible.
I think the Datsun you are looking for is a Sunny, no positive, but the
Brits say that was their 210. It is a rear wheel drive Datsun.
