My 160JSSS Coupe (the standard summer car)

Post by unlimitedpower »

Well here is my daily road car.

Its a 1974 1 Lady owner (my Nana) Datsun Violet aka KP710 or 160Jsss

Shes got a bit of rust in her as has lived by the beach all her life, Has been garaged though. Got a hole lot of sentimental value has this car so will be rebuilt back to stock when time (more importantly money) allows.

For now its as you see it sorry i thought i had more photos.

Engine: L20B Hi Comp (had bout 3mm shaved from the A87 head)
Fully rebuilt 1000Kms ago new rods pistons the lot.

Gearbox: R30 Skyline 5Speed not the best of condition,
but i have a couple more got a Turbo box might give that a
freshen up and put that in.

Diff: Subaru Legacy LSD 3.7:1

Have the original Engine (L16sss) Diff and 4speed gearbox from car pulled it out cos it was shagged. Would barely start was so low on compression (although with the 4speed and stock diff still pulled 208km/h on a flat road).

L20B Power really need to get the Carbs retuned its chokeing at above 5000rpm
