New Zealand Datsun Club

Well after some more pressure from tlssunny and Bartman I have finally conceded is indeed time for a build thread. So here it is my one and only 1982 (registered 83) Datsun Sunny 1.5 ZX. 1655716_705906816108565_998434486_o.jpg This is me on the exact day I bought it in December 2013 complete with or...

Had a yarn to Gary and he said there would be a low profile tyre that would sort this out for me just a matter of shilling out the massive amounts it costs for them haha. I'm not sure if the speedo is out atm because the previous owner f****ed it or because of the tyres that are on it now. Either wa...

Bugger thought as much. A photo would be much appreciated, do they just run straight in to the loom or in to a...

Just a query. Does the positive wire from the battery only run to the starter motor or should it enter the main loom somewhere else? Not sure as I had an accident a while ago involving a fan and my wiring.......
