  1. I flagged the header tape ages ago. It turned to shit pretty quickly.
  2. hey who in CHCH do I talk to, to get my headers sandblasted cheap cheap? I really want to get them blasted so I can paint them good and then not have to worry about them again. The factory paint that coby put on them turned to shit the instant I started the motor. I sanded them back and did the hot paint thing, but since I had them header wrapped for a time, this has turned to shit also. So I really want to make them lush again, with the veiw to further corrosion protection. I used to know a bloke who did sandblasting for me for a box of beers, but he doesn't answer my txts any more. So I'm looking for a similar type deal. Anyone?
  3. The J would be lush if only it had a 5 main crank. That is all.
  4. Make it a few degrees cooler so I can work on my car without getting bakes like a christmas turkey?
  5. I'm hoping to be there. If I'm very very very lucky, I might even have my new drag tyres and locked diff in.
  6. It's a bit of a wives tale that it's hell unsafe to lighten a cast flywheel. Obviously there are limits, but I have a nissan motorsport race/rally prep guide for the datsun 1200. And it includes a drawing of how much meat to remove from the flywheel. While it's not dangerously thin, it would be a complete pig in trafffic with the f/wheel in that book.
  7. Here are the details, Meet up at the Target furniture car park Blenheim Rd at 10am Depart 10:30am, heading south to Ashburton. Parking up in the carpark in the main drag, opposite the McDonalds/shell garage at 11:30am. Once everyone has caught up/meet up with anyone from south of christchurch, we'll be heading to Methevn via the Ashburton Methven highway where we'll be calling into the brown pub for a refreshment stop. From here we'll be heading to the Rakaia gorge, for a BBQ and a swim. Sausages $2 each, all proceeds to the club. (BBQ will be available to cook any food you wish to bring yourself after the sausage sizzle) Following that we'll be heading back to Christchurch via the Hororata Pub for another refreshemnts break, and maybe a pie. This cruise is open to all Datsuns, Datsun era Nissans, and vehicles manufactured by the price motor company. See you Mofo's there!
  8. please do. I have a mate who is heading north over the Xmas breaak too. So mayhap we can save you some coin on postage if frieght is rapage. (Prolly wont for a coupley of cabies though)
  9. Sure boe. I fin work at 320pm each day, so I have plenty of time to do a pick up for you mate.
  10. There's a bloke here in CHCH with a mega old mitis colt. (Like around '68-'69 vintage) He's keen as to hook up with owners of old cars and doing runs etc. Google the jap crap car club. I have his card somehwere.
  11. Doesn't change the fact that datsun rule. A12 vs 1256 is like David tua vs jason gunn. Having a clever back end but a 1256 up front is like being front the planet krypton, but being born with down syndrome.
  12. plans have changed how? You going to abandom the fail GMT's and roll datsun full time instead?
  13. $30. They aren't hard to make, but they are a little time consuming. I can do them in 10X12mm, 10X13mm, and 12X13mm. I also include a spare one cos they are very easy to drop and lose somewhere under the bench. (Where you don't find it untill like 18 months later.
  14. I love AP's to the max! This should do some choice skids.
  15. I have an open R200 nugget (The bit with the sidegears in it) that I'll sell ya cheap if you wanna be unlocked? I also make the spacer bushes to adapt the later centers to the longnose housings. I'm going to make another batch very soon too.
  16. 2.2 isn't real shit, but given the tyres you have you should be able to run quicker.
  17. I think if you get a decent pair of rear wheels and tyres. I think if you get some 15" MT's (or similar) you should be able to drop at least 4 tenths. It's impressive the times your getting with those skinny sidewalls that your running. Whats your best 60ft time to date?
  18. That fuel cell will be suck if you want to drive your car very far. 20l of gas wont get you very far. Is this the white 30 that I saw in redwood?
  19. Dan has kindly offered to pick me up. (What a GC!) See you dodgey buggers there!
  20. You should be racing lepper. (lulz) I'd like to go. It'd be nice to get a ride with someone though. (I'd prefer not to have to drive there)
  21. I don't know for sure, But I'd say they probably will. They ran VHT during at least one of the winter meets which they didn't do last year. Plus being a twilight meet the track will have had all day to heat up in the sun. I recall a practise run on the eve of the Digga southern nationals this year where the track was going off and guys were smashing their PB's hard.

  23. Tell Pav that he made it wrong, and has to have another crack it it. (Just don't tell him that I said that )
  24. I say chap, these cars are mighty cool! Did I see your thread correctly, Did one of these car become parts only? I may have an interest in some of the spares if there were some?
