in all the 1200's ive jumped in ive always been able to shake the steering wheel up and down a bit, due to that bush at the top of the steering column im told, has anyone found a solution to this as ive been told the part is unavailable to replace and all wrecks seem to have same symptoms.


by the way the photo album is awesome this site has just taken a huge step up to a new level, i hope to see pics of other members projects poping up there soon

my old motor had the distributor in the middle and it was an a-12 out of a 120y i thought, is that possible or must this motor be something other than a-12

i was told my motor makes 56kw on dyno (rear-wheel power) but anyway would anyone like to make an educated guess at what flywheel power this would give? if you could give some reasoning for your guess that would be good also. cause i can guess but really have no clue

p.s. if it makes a diffrence power at time of dyno power was transmitted through sunny 5-speed and welded 4.875 h-165 diff

very cool
ive just put in a new motor with twin webers (42mm) and a hole heap of other shit. i was worried that i wouldnt get much gain from swapping to webers from the SU's but now im not. what size dellortos ya put on?

i thought all the a-series motors have the same bore just diffrent stroke, but you say youre boring out to fit a-14 pistons? have i been mislead somewhere?

if ya find some put me down for one, personaly id be very suprised if such a thing exists

rally-a-coupe, i only got the page with the acceleration times and stuff on it, if you can send me the other or both again that would be great

i think it works out easier to put in a datsun box in the end and roughly the same cost, although there are a lot more of these celica/sprinter boxes around and i guess once youve set up for the first one, a replacement box is much cheaper and now slides straight in. hmmm now im interested for the future. ive read peoples explanation on what had to be done after purchasing dellows kit and nothing against dellow cause i like what there doing but some people say there is a lot of f$#!ing around and more money that has to go into the conversion after buying the kit. and then confusingly theres the others that say everythings there you basically just bolt it up. so im left unsure what to think and a bit weary. oh well

what minimum size wheels fit over this brake combo? 15's?

shit now im looking at the diagrams again and think you might be talking about another hole which is for a "pressue tap screw", anyway looking through the book there seems to be no other mention of the
"bypass screw". can you give a better description of this things location please and ill try and help from there.
