Hey Mark long time no speak!! Yes well thats the way it goes...its not gone yet mate. BTW Ive been waiting to see your car on track too...done any races lately?
Oh by the way no photos of the trailer. Currently its got an SC400 on it im pulling apart for repowering out boat. Its standard car trailer really well built by Andrew on the club.

Well I dont want to do this and I keep changing my mind about whether to keep this car or hang on to it (sorry Marty) cause I do love the thing and its part of the family... To tell you the truth if it doesnt sell I dont mind but Im putting it out there anyway.

Congrats Andy girls are great. I took my eldest to her first event on Saturday at Ansell Park. She turned 12 a few weeks ago and I gave her her Cams licence on her birthday. We did an Autokhana at Ansell park and she did really well. Kids are indeed good value. You are a blessed man..

FJ20 DET are legal in NSW due the the TARE weight of the ute and the combined load

75-80 degrees C get a high capacity radiator and a genuine nissan thermostat youll never have another prob

i have a set of these in my shed in sydney off my old white race car. have a look at my photos and look at the white coupe with the kit. I know they go for $300-plus shipping retail i can do them for around the 200 mark. One flare needs a little fibreglass work other than that they are ready to go.
SMS me on 0400995409 if interested

Marty Johns car is a manual tunnel (auto tunnel is alot bigger) in the coupe and it needed a small amount of massaging to get my skyline R32 GTS-T box in it. I would not go to the expense of cutting a tunnel out. The massaging needed were for small bumps etc in the gearbox.
It is tight but the best way to get an SR20 in a coupe (cause youre not allowed to modify or cut the radiator support panel in IPRA rules) is to drop the engine in the car with the crossmember out of the car and then attach the crossmember to the engine under the car and also the gearbox then bring it all up to its mounting position.
It would be much easier to be able to separate the radiator panel and slide it in that way. If you do that youd risk being penalised in IPRA, but in saying that they are struggling for numbers so I would hardly think that it would be an issue.

edit;;;oh the reason i went the R32GTS-T box was that its stronger than a S13 box and actually alot shorter. You will need to change the bellhousing to suit. (they are interchangeable) I drove Denniss' car at Bathurst with the S13 box and the gear selector I thought was too far back.

depends what hp you are putting through but i have seen 200kw put through a stock coupe chassis with not much flex and no cracking after long term. They are strong and stiff little monocoque. I would imagine the ute being just as strong if not stronger. This is why the 1200 is such a good little racecar and drag car.
if you are rallying then its alot harder on the car and I would recommend seam welding, otherwise I would leave it and have fun.
