New Zealand Datsun Club

So My project has finally come to a start 120y + Fj20et= HOLD ONNNN!!!
after 1 year of saving every cent i was paid its come to the part of spending it
thought i would keep you guys updated with my build too
so my original datsun 120y got smashed in a hit and run =[ to much damage to fix I FUKING HOPE SOMETHING BAD HAPPENS TO THE GUY THAT DID A HIT AND RUN FUK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
so i bought another datsun 120y shell and will swap over interior and bits and pieces thank you to the guy who sold me that immaculate shell
want to keep interior as slandered as possible and same as the outside
so if you havent gathered old a12 motor out old fj20et in

Ohhh snap! More FJ20ET goodness!

I can't wait to see all the goodness this thread will bring!
Lots of pics and progress updates please.




ps, its called an FJ20ET, not D in the name

YES YES YES!
more pics please!

FJ20 Good effort! Good to see something other than a SR20 lol. Going to be a total weapon.
What are your plans for it?

Yeah pretty sick of people doing the sr20 ca18 not a huge fan of thoose motors
Dont worry i will keep uploading pics as we go along might take a while
want it out and running in the next 6 months but dont want to rush perfection
Plans keep the motor stock as possible for now just a bigger turbo intercooler usual mods
just want to get it certed and out and about
still want the looks to be relatively slandered cant beat the old lines and shapes the car has
do want to keep it as my road car so not a huge amount of horsepower not that it will need it

I got my full gasket kit from Scott (brdflu on the forums here) who works at Cockram Nissan in CHCH for a good price.
I would give him a call there and see if he can source you a kit.

Any gasket you are in need of in particular?

nah not anything i need in particular
just thought it would be good practice to change all the gasket seals

thanks for everyone's help=]
