New Zealand Datsun Club

Oh, you can talk Dan!

WOW im back on the first page again, well not a lot to report folks, car is still in the garage awaiting new door skins before painting can commence, bonnet has been skim coated with bog and ready for blocking back, I have purchased a new paint gun in anticipation of said paint job, and ca18 and supercharger have been sold to make way for the new powerplant which is siting on chris,s engine stand as I type this.
Ross,s zed has taken up most of the datsun garage workshop in preparation for a coat of shiny stuff, so cant really paint mine till his is coated in lovely stuff anyway.
and pips doors are awaiting rust removal.
although I have re discoverd how to put together a 60 hour week, so if I continue that trend through xmas I may find time to get on and finish the bloody thing.
heres hoping aye

well you can't go and tease us with talk of a new motor and not show us some pictures of it!

thats the point, yes i can, actually there isnt much excitement, as its still a ca18 its just that this one has a turbo instead of a blower

Thank christ its still a CA, i could of slapped you otherwise!

glad to hear you've changed to a turbo ca18det.
lol shut up josh, my datto has received plenty of love this year, its getting closer and closer each week. its had a few hold backs that are out of my control as well. also remember iv been rust repairing the replacement b110 shell for Rhys over the last 2months as a favor. its turned out to be a huge job lol nearly finished it tho.

Il accept that...

after riding in yvettes ute I realised the diff wouldnt cope with the abuse the supercharger would impose on it, so ill be making my power via turbo which the diff should handle with ease, just a case of keeping it simple and getting it on the road, and making it reliable

Sell it now then...

jokes.

LOL that would probably be the quickest way to seeing it finished
