my car is ready (always was)......but I have somehow misplaced my keys!
Looked over the whole house....nothing....good thing I found a spare alarm remote and door key.......now all I need is an IGN key lol :burnout:

Check in the kornies, lost the keys to a mates 4wd while he was in Aus, didn't find them till we got to the bottom of the box. Hate Kornies, was like 6 mths later. Recommend checking the Kornies, never know what you might get

Was going to try bring the 1200 with my flatmate but with the whole in the sill and the troubles with the carb I am now having I am thinking of flagging that. 2 seats would be great so i can still bring my flat mate alot. All else failing will have to bring the starlet...and im sure you would all rather that didnt happen haha
Would a b110 carb sort your problems, I have one there I know is all good.

I might have a spare seat in the back of the 12ie but you would probably want to leave your legs at home, and maybe your ears, 4speed only!

The new starter motor i picked up is making a strange noise :(
its working though so someone can listen to it on the cruise and tell me that its stuffed?

i'll bring my other starter just incase it stops working :)



oh wait my workmate tells me the noise will be the new bushes in it as it slows down after starting.


so don't worry.

Gutted you dont wanna bring you sedan on the cruise bro. A little hard work will have epic rewards when your Datsun is part of the biggest gathering of Datsun's In NZ!!!

Haha id love to bring it..however the over heating, carb trouble, hole in the exhaust and the floor makes it abit of a bad idea. i think id be the pick of the bunch for the cops if any came past haha
