the numba pl8 was one that my dad had lying round so i put it onto the car once it was finished cous the old pl8s were all bend and looked ####. It is a rally car . the engine is a A12 bored out to 1298 head and block decked to give 10:5:1 compression ratio very wild cam ports opend up huge double valve springs bottem end all balances e.g rods smoothed cranlk smoothed. i had the car out at the track today nearly put it on its lid at 120kmh under_steering wheels bit in fliped up onto 2 wheels gave the pit wall a good look at the under belly of a datsun lol lucky i think i need some stiffa springs lol

so it is quite quick then?

goes all right but im allways wanting more power

don't we all. do you race it a bit out at ruapuna?

so i'm guessing its AWD going on tha number plates....

i wish bout the pl8s lol. na i dont race at ruapuna i was just out there testing it . it is slowly being developed into a gravel rally car just waiting for my lsd from japan then i can put it on the gravel

I like the cigarette box at the top
I actually being looking at a toyota dyna one which is bigger but would look mad on the 1000.

that looks great nice supalites ,racing seats and great paint...whats under the bonnet....

I think its a roof vent. You see them on alot of modern rally cars just normally theyre bigger and look similar to a bonnet scoop

very neat...hope you dont bend her!!

i heard the theory behind these the other day (roof vents)
apparently the air rushing in their actually pressurise the cabin the tiniest bit, this then stops dust getting in through seals on windows and doors and stuff to keep the car clean and clear inside, and people swear they work!

This looks good! The yellow is very sporty. Can you give more details about the car?
