  1. thx vic. and it's gotta be the 620 after i saw this bit of delicious:
  2. must be running & driving, light rust, no major smashups. in socal area preferably admin or sticklers: i didn't see a classified subforum or any rules about not posting 620 pickup wanted ads, so please move or delete to if against the rules -mbh
  3. that's interesting because the HT was not sold in the UK
  4. 240kconv, i look forward to you proving me wrong a few years from now. btw, i hope everybody still got their k's:o in a few years
  5. wing, that avatar is a screen capture from the tv commercial, so i don't think that'd work btw, i can't tell ... you still have a b210? anyway, come over to datsun1200.com where you'll find lots of enthusiasm and info for sedan datsuns
  6. kid, i like your enthusiasm:) the 140z and 160z were b210's sold in south africa that were unique in that they came equipped with a nissan l-series (ohc) motor instead of the a-series pushrod motor camo is suggesting that you put an l-series motor into your car to make it similar to these special models never sold in the usa would be a good budget project and great for a beginner who wants to do it himself
  7. pros: i think it's a neat idea, but use a ford smallblock with the dizzy in the front cons: realize that you'll probably be shunned by hotrodders as well as other datsun enthusiasts. you may tell yourself that you don't care, but you will care also, plan on selling it mid project or right after you're completed as this inevitably happens to every one whom i've heard about the exception may be the hybridz v8 enthusiasts, but they have a network, peer and support network
  8. belongs to "karim" in socal - i've heard of an engine importer by that same name pic 2 pic 3 pic 4 pic 5
  9. hmm, did oz get silver 2drs? i know the nisspares car is silver, but that could be a color change i've seen blue, yellow, white, copper & ?
  10. i guess lachlan must've deleted the mckrack stuff? why is kent's last post edited by "victor laury"?
  11. what importing costs? how much do you think these should cost, anyway? fact remains that even if you got it over here, it'd require tons more money to make it worth driving and showing there were a couple on ebay, and nobody really wanted them people who have money to spend want 510's, z's and roadsters people who don't have money to spend buy whatever's easy
  12. an aussie model or a jdm made to look like an aussie model? check out the rest of the website some interesting (but small) event pics
  13. wow! check out this cool blue, unflared Kenmeri
  14. i 've driven around all over town, and both the seat and seating position feel great i've got tons of legroom, and that's hard to come by in most old datsun sedans the car is real fun, (even with the stock motor and suspension), and people of all walks seem to love it if i find my toes and calves numbing on a longer drive, i'll keep jon's mod in mind but i don't know if it'll do much good as the c110 brackets are unique since the sliders are already welded to the brackets plus headroom is already at a premium (for me at least!) that's why i couldn't use the 510/z/universal style of brackets made in the u.s.
  15. same exact as you did, but the box is labled "Juran Racing"' and you're right: these fit to perfection! took me a whole hour to install both seats whereas it took me almost half a day to install seats using the american made recaro brackets on my 510
  16. hey, thanks for the idea ... :cheeky:
  17. JDM_GUY, good to see you onboard! Now ... let's have a look at those cool cars you've been hoarding :laugh:
  18. i believe this situation calls for prayer and intercession :disappoin :stupid: seriously, this is not just some old datsun that you can replace easily ship it to melby and put it in storage if you only drive it once or twice a year, so what? at least nobody will smack into your fender mirrors :knockedou and when your life gets settled, your beloved will be waiting for you
  19. ok, ok, so it's among the heaviest datsun bonnets remember us yanks didn't get those bomber glorias howsabout a carbon fibre bonnet ...
  20. we have another celebrity Lachlan
  21. auction ended early ... going to middle east?
  22. my car measures about 7.5" from rear rocker to floor, and i don't want to go much lower as it will skew the camber/castor and force me to slot the xmember you're probably a lot lower with the flares and all have you done the front coil overs yet?
  23. recovered dash paint looks generic metallic. could've been standard gold originally?
  24. you must've got quite a workout, the k having the heaviest bonnets of all the datsuns
  25. so, if i didn't want to go as low as you did, i'd need taller springs or shocks or both?
