Not mine, just acquired them for Ian who has brought my A15 off me. (although I used to own this particular set a couple of years back)


Thats not a bad price for the manifold. certainly worth thinking about. saves fecking around with fuel lines and ECU and all that jazz.

would probably go quite well on sideys! and better yet make the right noises. certainly a cost effective solution to your problem of lack of induction on that motor!

where did you find that site luke? if you have any questions for the ga16 and no one can help here, try http://www.nissanownersclub.co.za/forum ... 7da3a9f3fa" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;.

guys have lots of knowledge with these engines over in south africa. really popular over there.

lol. EFI for that GA is bolt on and a couple wires into the vehicles ignition harness. Far simpler than learning to get a set of twin twins tuned up. Well, at least to me anyway :lol:

Ginge.
Just to clarify, I was referring to carbs a lot easier than EFI, when by EFI I was referring to custom EFI & ITB setup that me and luke have been discussing pn and off this forum- not stock OEM (dare I say; boring) EFI induction

Hey luke if that engine came with all the efi hardware etc - just run it lol - or youll be forever changing and modding stuff and not being able to drive it, IE my 1200.

You can get some pretty good "Duuuooooooouuuuutttt" out of standard efi (like your tricked up vtec non vtec hondas) if thats what your after.

I know I am hardly one to talk, but he should just stick to the standard EFI setup and get the thing on the road, boring or not.

A boring Datsun on the road is worth 10 in the garage haha
