I cut and pasted this from the "other" supplier's web page:

A Datsun 5-speed transmission from August 1979 to 1982 Datsun 210. This can 
be from a coupe, sedan or wagon. 

The input and output shafts should be 20mm (about 25/32") diameter and 18 
spline.

The serial number on top of the bellhousing should begin with the letter "F" 
(FL, FA, FX etc. OK). The number "60" is cast into the right side of the main 
case.  These transmissions come from the Datsun 210, but the model number for 
these cars, imbedded in the Serial Number, is B310. The model number for the 
transmission, FS5W60A, is sometimes found on the Serial Number plate on the 
firewall. This is not found on the transmission.
