EpochNZ Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 "I'm coming to the conclusion that I shouldn't listen to @- i5oogt - or @RUNAMUCK. Terrible influences they are." TBH I think all oldschoolers are as bad as each other when it comes to egging on would be purchasers. I blame you and @Threeonthetree for the Saaaab, for instance. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brocky41 Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 Also good luck with finding taillights - i has to have mine rebuilt at autolights. Be very carefull with those rare rear windows too. A guy by the name of Aaron Anderson-hall on facebook has 2 one of which is my old one and I dont know whats happining with the other (parts for you I hope - or use yours as parts for it) I do miss this car - LD20 had little power but towed everything and never let us down 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carsnz123 Posted June 17, 2018 Author Share Posted June 17, 2018 Problem is the right tail light is a little broken. haven't taken it off to see if the bits are inside and can be glued back on. I'll hit up that arron dude and see if he has a parts wagon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickJ Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 I stumbled out of Alex's shed in the soft light of a golden bay dawn to have my morning piss when I saw that beast for the first time, as first impressions are everything, mine were along the lines of god that car is filth, how did Nissan get from Hakosuka to here?

kyteler Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 If you need any parts that I have left over from the sedan I pulled to bits you're welcome to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carsnz123 Posted June 18, 2018 Author Share Posted June 18, 2018 What you got @kyteler? I stopped past @- i5oogt -s stash of Datsun/Nissan goodness last night and found an r30 that can donate guards and doors but all the bonnets are fucked.

kyteler Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 No bonnet sorry. Put that on my other coupe. Doors, seats, random bits from the three piece chassis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUNAMUCK Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 For the record I had nothing to do with the decision to purchase this car. I'm all for peer pressure. But I can not claim.any credit for this. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carsnz123 Posted June 19, 2018 Author Share Posted June 19, 2018 TBH you're right but I'm still blaming you. Brocks mate has come through and has a parts car that can donate some wagon specific parts. @kyteler I might be keen on some seats and door cards depending on what the ones in this parts wagon are like. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kws Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 BTW a good and fairly cheap cleaning solution for manual boxes is a 2:1 ratio of white spirit and ATF. Used it in my Vitesse gearbox and the amount of crap that came out was horrific. Fill it up, start it up on stands and run through the gears a few times. Let it idle in gear for 5 mins. Drain, and refill with more of the fresh mixture, and let it idle in gear for 10 mins. Drain and refill with oil of your choice (unless second drain was also horrific, in which case do it a 3rd time) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carsnz123 Posted July 24, 2018 Author Share Posted July 24, 2018 Is that 2 parts white spirits one part atf or other way around? Reminds me I did a similar mix of diesel, atf, white spirits and poured it into a locked up engine. That was over a year ago. Must se what it has done.

RUNAMUCK Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Great progress! I was sharning with Karl last weekend en route to Hanmer. While this whip maybe isn't as cool as the deez 260, it's probably going to drive/handle a lot tighter. I take it you'll be adding a post combustion thermal expansion driven barometric compensator after Hanmeet? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but I think I'll reinforce the gearbox mount first. @JustHarry and @Slacker_Sam. know how rough it looks. And maybe rebuild a gearbox seeing as karls car keeps breaking them.
