Guys this ignition has been giving me trouble and alot. If one should upgrade to an electronic ignition would you require more fueling on the carb, because of the increase in spark ?

I run a 36dcd7 weber, maus performance intake 272 cam and a custom brance and exause,it did run pretty well upto my new installation.

Any idea's ?

Thanx

mmh.

That is also what i have been told DaveB, The ppl building performace A series engine's say the mechanical fan renders useless after bout 60 km/h , but then again i makes one wonder if the A class engine's Durability doesn't stick with the fact that it is always "cold" or cooled. Does anyone have proof of this ?

Sorry oke a private messaged you ;p

Like i Said for all the other ppl out there, i will call nissan tomorrow and ask about the Y120 and Y140 lights, bumpers. But i doubt it. We only get the A14 Ute's parts aka the 1400Nissan Bakkie. And they are Expensive.

These are the aftermarket bumpers we do get.

Hey Thanx Rallytwit.

So Dodgeman, i want to know will a Replica of the head gasket made of copper work (better) on the 1608cc A15 engine. I guess what i'm asking is will it hold ?

Hey man, I live in South-Africa Pretoria. And i'v heard of Bolt on turbo kits, but they arn't locally made. And we also suffer to get "performance parts" A GX head is rare ... and an untouched one even more.
