ah fuck that mean car this was for sale not long ago ?

yeah, but I don't know if he sold it or not. I did see him recently lower his price......
I thinik the aussie ones would depend on where they were assmbled, as to wheter they were stamped or tagg'd.

does anyone know a good paint supplier for the stock colour on the datto?

cant think of any real reason to paint it any other colour..

will get together a list of parts that i know i will need, and some that i dont need asap but will eventually..

Legend! If only more people were like you!
I love factory colours and cant think f anything better than a turbo charged efi engine in a orig looking body!!!

nah i fell in love with the colour when i first saw the car..
thought of white,ethn black, or yellow...

nah the trusty old browny pooh yellowish gold is awesome, and its really set off with the simmons..

havnt done squat diddly to this thing yet..

still need:

datsun seats with rails
rear seats
radiator
fan
external efi pump
dizzy cap
exhaust
driveshaft
link wired up
hose clamps for just about everything
kick trims and lower pillar trims
turbo pipe from the turbo to the j pipe

i did have a go at lowering the front, but that was an epic fail..
need the shorter struts which i think i read somewhere are r31 or 280zx struts??
its basically on the bumpstops and still at original height, so i think anyway..

AMEN, I float in the same boat.

this car is seriously doing my head in

i took the springs out of the front and dropped it down and theres still alot of daylight between the wheels and the guard, not low enough for me..

so i gave up that mission and decided to mount a radiator, then realised the intake pipe from the t/body wont fit with any of the 3 radiators i have...this engine is pissing me off...

i did manage to get something done though...
i remounted the guages in the dash panel.....thats it..

then the guy with a worked l16 rang me today...couldve been keen but its only got a single carby...fail
