New Zealand Datsun Club

Heres some progress pics: Heres the slicks mounted on rims and car as you can see the rear guards have been made alot bigger to accomodate them
Heres some of the inside of the car with the engine and trans mounted, as you can see, not alot of room, i like the word snug hahahahaha
Heres the engine mounted and the start of the headers:
Heres a better pic of the engine plate/brace
A view from the front:
Now, my personal favourite.......................................the turbo sitting where its going to go

So thats my update dash done for a while, next is maybe finish the headers and dump pipe and start looking at where the wastegate is going to live. Get the rear guards finished and primed mount the fuel cell and filters etc maybe look at starting the tunnel and other sheetmetal work inside the car

That's a BIG sucker!!! Housing looks bigger than the rotary housing. Very impressive.

hahahahahah yes it is rather large. The angle the pictures taken on creates a bit of an illusion but none the less it is still reasonably big

Alot of Epicness going on there dude!

Holy hell thats a big turbo.
careful when you test spool it up you don't suck up the neighbours cat or any small children walking past!

Hahahaha i was thinking of feeding it the neighbours cat to keep them out of my shed As for the small children the sound should be enough to keep them away

More Progress!!!! Drivers side of car has had all rust removed, new plates fitted and has been bogged and ready for primer!! Quite a tedious and time consuming job but worth doing all the same! The headers have been taken away by somebody more skilled than i to be finished and the intake elbow has been modified to suit my engine bay I feel another shopping spree coming. Watch this space
