New Zealand Datsun Club

Some of you guys may know that my mate owns a mint S110 Datsun. I was driving it around as a daily last year when my Datsun was off the road. His S110 has been off the road as it failed a wof for rust. Which he has now fixed. He was going to keep it original but now wants to give the L18 a bit more "GO" (I wanted to chuck in my old L26 in to it) He was looking in to an SR20 and I told him to F@#K off. He didn't want the L18 as they are so gutless. I'm sure his L18 have dish piston's and I have a set of flattop L28 piston's that I got off Gman. So we where thinking we are going the bore out his block to suit the L28 flattop piston's. (Only a 1mm over bore) Run twin webers, Headers and get a cam regrind. I think he would be more than happy with that.

As long as it looks like this when its finished

To be fair he does have those rims on it already

FJ!

No way! No FJ, SR, RB,ETC going in here. He did look in to getting a L20 (4 banger) But we didn't find one. I think playing with the L18 is the best option at this stage, Best power over cost. Any other motor/gear box is going to cost big $$$$ and changing things to suit and then cert.Its not worth it, Torb already has an turbo powered RB S13 Silvia.

That is Awesome, I wouldn't want to be in his S110 with a motor like that, For some reason his LSD like's to kick the cars ass end out even with the lack in power, Had it happen a few time I was driving it. Funny thing I wasn't even trying to "drift" it, just driving like I would with my RS4 or my R32 lol.

Wash your mouth! FJ all day!

Yes fj all the way but do you have a spare one? The 2.3 or 2.4 is a cheep and easy option the rally car boys love them.

indeed the L18 in Torbs car has the fuel injection and is a dog of a system I think doing the carbs,cam,headers etc will make the L18 go a lot better. Remember he's on a budget here. There is no need to spend tons of money to make a car go a little quicker.I took Karl for a spin after I put my L28 together first thing he said "goes a lot harder than L28 with fuel injection" At that stage I only had unturned carbs, Headers and exhaust. I do think a 280z does weigh more an a 260c to be fair. But the key here is to make the engine breath better
