if you get a carb that needs tuning, it's probably worth taking it to a shop and having it tuned, because obtaining the assorted sizes of jets can quicly get more expensive than their tining fee. I know I just bought a bunch of jets for a dgav and am wondering if I should have just gotten it tuned at the shop down the street.

It's not something I do often. I'm still getting a feel for how the car handles. I know it's hard on the hardware and tires. I don't try things like that where there are other cars around, the pulling has never been an issue in normal driving, other than sometimes the tires will grab a groove in the road and follow it while breaking conservatively.

I like my datsun, I'm not going to run it in to things.

aah yes, Auto Parts Unlimited. I'll check it out.

I suspect it's an alignment thing, since the car pulled to the right before i got new tires and whatnot.

I was told the camber ( i think ) on the passenger side was not able to be set back to spec.

Is it possible that it's the steering gearbox having too much play? the amount of hunting is probably equal to the amount of play in the steering.

idle will be lowered.
Is there a fast idle adjustment too? you had one labled on one of your pictures. I'm not sure mine has that.

yeah, my old clutch is tired, I'm surprised it's lasted this long considering the shape the car was in when i got it.

I don't really do burnouts, or rather the clutch doesn't.

you mean like caught speeding during the course of a rally? Here you would be DQ'd for getting caught because the police tend to take your materials and bust other cars in the rally.

If I apply my brakes really hard the car kinda hunts side to side. What causes that? By really hard i mean 80 mph lock the front wheels up hard. Such as in a panic stop on the highway.

I've replaced everything in the front end. I had problems with the car pulling before i got new tires, since then it's never been a problem, but supposedly the camber isn't right on one of the front wheels because of some frame tweakage.

any ideas?

i have 2" from the cat-back maybe that's helping me. I haven't gotten a header yet. I suppose I have a setup that favors the topend more, 4th and 5th on the freeway really get me going. pegged the poor speedo at 85+
