i have found a fully chromed 1 off a fellow datsun nut, here in nelson for $60!!
but, i need to bypass the factory regulator, due to the internal one in new alternator.

can any one help?? its my only car, and dont want to ride the scooter all winter...

I've got a picture off the net that I used when I bypassed my external regulator in my 610 since the Z18ET one was internally regulated:

I found that the datsun 1200 forum had quite a bit of useful information. One thing to note: I had to solder a diode into the circuit that connects to the charge light to stop current backfeeding and making the light stay on even if the alternator was charging correctly.

Hope that helps.
