Nissan/Datsun A12 A14 or A15?
Dad had an A14 in a Lotus 7 replica, sidedraughts (from memory), high compression, etc etc rev'd to buggery and sound was awesome
He's still got the engine too. Just sitting in the garage.

Good place to live, gf works for the police (not a cop lol) and looked up records in Kelson. No car thefts as far back as she could look (couple of years).
Only domestic violence etc = meh

Yep as already said the supercharger WILL hit the engine mount, easy fix is to cut the mount so it clears.
You CAN you a Tvis manifold as long as the head is a bigport (pre-'89) and you will have to remove the tvis butterflies/the whole tvis plate (just use shorter bolts).
Turbo makes lots more power than supercharger, even a small tdo4 will.
I've got both setups a late model 4agze running 10psi in my ae86 and another late model 4agze running 17psi on a t3/04e making 212kw's but thats in my ae92 gtz...so fwd
If you use the standard gze inlet manifold with rwd it works fine but the intercooler piping will have to be pretty long and you WILL have throttle lag due to the fact that the throttle body is before the supercahrger. So when you pull off the throttle it will still suck in the rest of the air in the intercooler and piping.
You have to run front mount because the topmount standard position will over lap your firewall by half a foot.
Supercharger may not make as much power but it sure is fun having instant torque
Here is a pic of my ae86 4agze conversion (click it for full size pic):
Good luck mate, cool car to do the conversion on!

Shane Mendoza at Mendoza Mechanical should be able to do it if you have some decent diagrams.
He did my brothers kp starlet with ca18et.
Not sure on price though. They are in Upper Hutt, wouldn't hurt to ask if he's keen or not. They are usually really busy but he's a good guy.

Would this dude be able to make a panel to cover where a sun roof used to be? Either weld in (if possible to make it look ok) or glue on top, have seen this done before and looks good.
I live in Kelson so would be pretty handy.

Yeah saw that petition a couple of months ago. My old man went on the bike convoy to parliament and they were met by some MP. Possibly the bowl cut one... can't remember the name.
Can't have made a difference though because since then, I went on Holiday and came back to MORE of the shit on the mainroad through lower hutt. They are changing most of the intersections and even blocking some of them with cheese cutters.
Both my brotherand dad have quick bikes and lots of safety gear but still... stuff hitting one I think I'll stick to have a tin can 80's toyota around me
