who votes Makali is a full on wanker??

hey guys,

when i turn my lights on my revs drop by about 200rpm at idle. is this normall?
does it happen to any of you?
and how can i fix the problem, if it is one?

thanks
nicholas

try putting 12v straight onto your points, if it starts then you have a power problem if not the timing is way out. did you put your rotor back in

ive read up on sites that you should run a pressure regulater when running a webber carb. is this true? what are you guys running with your webbers?

many thanks
nicholas

jou ma se hare!!!

so is that why you ave a rotary???

what it is, is a standard beetle right, here in S.A you get fibreglass bodies that fit straight on to the beetle chassis. i then got a adapter plate made it bolts onto my 1200 and got the beetle fly wheel modified to fit the 1200. then it bolts straight in like a normal beetle engine. as for the pluming the radiator sits right behind the engine will the stock cooling fan keeping it cool. i'll try get pics for you guys to show what i mean.

here goes,

as most of you can see i always post about my engine a 1200 datsun, and never speak about my car or ask questions, thats cause i have a long wheelbase beach buggy with my datto motor in the back with the standard 1600 gearbox, i'm soon putting a 1300 gearbox in to give me more driveability. my rims have been powder coated black with 185/60/14 on the rear and 165/80/13 up front.

the car handles like a demon, not many cars can catch me through a corner. it's completly white with a black roof, the only crap thing is the brakes i can stop too well and when it rains i #### myself, so if anyone can help on that subject please post it for me.

the greatest advantage is that my whole car only weighs +-600kg's so power to weight is pretty good

my next mods are going to be fit a 1400 play with the motor abit put bucket seats in it and maybe disk brakes up front :P

so now that know about my car dont look down on me at heart it's still a datsun!!!
