Flauski Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Plenty to do here. Got the itch for another car and found the cheapest Datsun I could - a Sunny. First I bought off Grant (who owns my old 1200 coupe) a really tidy Sunny in a great factory colour. Grant really cared for this car. He's clearly a perfectionist - like me. Took it for a few cruises over summer until WOF ran out. Then I did what I do best and pulled it all apart I bought Oldmatedan's Sunny which had plenty of fruit already attached. eg Not a fan of the beige so I have commenced swapping it all over to the tidier shell. Plenty more to follow. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flauski Posted August 24, 2016 Author Share Posted August 24, 2016 First off, diff choice Did a bit of reading of Internet speculation regarding diff choices. Found out the truth myself. Measured approximately. Left is diff from S110 silvia 1380mm length - H165 disc brake, bolts straight in, has a sway bar too = obvious choice mid is diff from C20 Van 1410mm length - H165 disc brake (custom modified to fit four link by oldmatedan and was fitted to beige car) Right is diff from Sunny (OEM) 1370mm length - H150 drum rear end (now used by some ministocker) 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flauski Posted October 6, 2016 Author Share Posted October 6, 2016 Nothing like undressing a lady and finding all her curves are flawless (even though shes 35) Apologies for potato with flash pics but I have never seen a floor plan on a 35 year old car look so clean and tidy. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
