On the subject of hot valve adjustments Chris Lott has developed a system that allows you to adjust without removing the cover. He reckons it is the ultimate in achieving accurate hot
settings. He is being a little shy on the details but given his past development on rocker covers anything is possible. He won't tell me the specifics until I apologise for something I
said about his Nana. Does any one else know how he has done it?

Nah it's not really a good idea. Cold air induction can be worth doing if you're turboed or restricted for under bonnet space with your fuel injected car. The gains normally come with
freeing up restrictions via pod and filter mods and because cooler induction air lessens the chance of pre-ignition. You are proposing using two filters and ramming air down a carby
throat. That is a backward step because of the added restriction and standard carbs don't cope well with swirling air being forced down their throats. You are better to use an air cleaner
housing that is open on the sides with a good quality filter - the carb will suck what it needs to perform.

Hey Dave - any chance of posting/emailing the Zoom scans so that we can
all take a look?
Cheers.

Hi Knut,

My 2 cents is I reckon the album should stay - I've always seen the 240 as the 1200's big bro. They're both worthy cars. Your ex 240 with the Porsche body kit is the best that I
have seen and I spent 6 years in the US driving 240's - never saw anything as proportionately correct. What's the job market like in Norway - I feel like a change! Thanks again for
your albums.

Fantastic collection of Datsuns - loved the mint showroomers combined with a few modifieds and the exhausted ones. I gotta visit Norway!
Just off 1200's for a bit - I originally ran 240Z's before finding the little coupes. What mods did you do to your 240 to run 260k's?? Ferrari hunting - you Norsemen are hard case!
Thanks a lot.

That's when you invite the neighbours over and have them sit in the trunk while you roll! The rear arches are much stronger but you can still get a good result - just
need more ballast!

Just use Kingspring Lows. They are a sensible height and are legal where as cutting springs is not! Plus you are a role model for NZ youth so you need to do the right thing - even
if you listen to SevenDust....

Get an aluminium baseball bat, or equivalent length of tube, and place between tyre and guard. Have someone you trust drive slowly forward and back while you lever the bat to get the
guard profile you want. Watch for kickback or connecting with the strut as the bat rolls by. Obviously there is an element of safety missing from this so from a culpable point of
view I am not suggesting you try this at all. See if Chris Lotts Nana is available...

SGX C20 Van had front discs.

I can't help letting you know that it is currently 40oC. in Sydney right now - that's around 100oF I think. Any way it's too damn hot and I'd swap for your Canadian temps
for Christmas Day! Any other New Years reso's out there?
