Re: SMNZ R30
Very cool -I am so jealous.
I would love to get into SMNZ too.... thinking I could put my coupe on hold for a bit, and redivert funds into a track car.
I thought maybe track down a 910 like my old junker I had, and cage it out, would be good cheap fun (all be it at the back of the pack..)
alternatively my old Y that is for sale would be a good cheap way to get into it - might have to go check it out.
DO you know if you can run A15/A14 in Datsun's, cause that rule sheet suggested you could only go 40' o/s, ie a bored out A12 <1200cc.

Any car is eligable i think as long at 70-83 i think. Give them a ring first of course,

Re: SMNZ R30
May I ask....why bother going through the effort and costs of panel and painting ? Especially for what looked like fine for race car purposes condtion paint ? Especially when that 510 could benefit from the funds to get it on the road? Or have I missed something?
Re: SMNZ R30
Did they find any rust so far? Hope they don't make fun of my repairs to the sills

Well almost.
A mate is a tutor at the polytechnic.
Since Ive been doing jobs on his cars since we were sprogs, about time he owed me. So he put it though as a class project
To be honest dude, Im trying to distance myself emotional as I can. So i haven't asked. That way when i roll it, I wont care so muchDJZ wrote:Did they find any rust so far? Hope they don't make fun of my repairs to the sills
apparently very rust and bog free tho. I only care that no bog goes back in, don't need any unnecessary weight added
On a side note, still haven't decided on a color
