Hi Rick,

Some 1600's towards the end of the model run usually imported into Australia
like the wagon came with a 3/4" dual cylinder complete with a pressure
differential warning light. The Nabco variety has different reservoirs for
front and back, the front one (back brakes) is a perfect cylinder and the
rear res (front brake) in a shorter rounder affair. If it still has the
original cylinder there will be an electrical connection somewhere between
both reservoirs, also the original Japanese 510 system doesn't incorporate a
prop valve so if it has one it's been fitted ex factory.

The dual cylinder also may have been fitted by an Aussie PO and if this is
case then it's more than likely a 180B unit.

regards

Terry

Hi there just a quick question.
In my 1600 WAGON it has two (yes two)reseviors for the master cylinders
which I can't find any info o about in my workshop manual.(manual is datsun
510 owners handbook and service manual published bye Floyd Clymer in Los
Angeles)
I guess one is for the front and one is for the rear has anyone used this
system with quod spots and R31 rear disks?
Are they compatable?
It is just an idea I have.
Any info would be good.
Thanks in advance.
Rick White.
