I'm with you Sidedraught. Just finished a suck through manifold yesterday and am now trying to find a 1 3/4 Su. Not sure where to plumb the water/meth yet because I don't want to pit my turbo.

Geez imageshack is slow,
anyway, here's the hat I bought off someone after his project stalled

It has a Hobbs switch stuck in the side and as mentioned the guy said that it was good for 20 psi... whether I believe him or not I don't know though.

I have a boxed 32/36 I can take some pics of if you want? It's just a 32/36 with a "hks street turbo" hat put on top. I've seen setups with the entire carb boxed, but mine just has the hat sealed to the top of the carb. Can't tell you if it works because I've switched to suck through for simplicity... But the bloke I bought it off said that he was using it on a L20b and running 20 psi.

What can you do with a 200B?

Hey All,
Just wondering if anyone has done anything cool with a 200B? I have an old 200b sedan from years ago sitting in the back shed doing nothing but taking up space. I keep needing the space but can't bring myself to throw it away because it's in very good condition (and has the comfiest seats that I have ever sat in).

I don't really want to make it a serious project (already have the 1200 and now a 180bSSS) so is there anything that 200bs are useful for? I've thought about making it a cheap daily.... also thought that it may be the only Datsun that I could bring myself to violate with a V8.... maybe could make the first 200B convertible.

I have the gx (I think) with the big square front grille, not the nice SX one, and it's original poo creamy-brown colour. Stock rims, it's basically all original just faded with the occasional rust spot.

Is it possible to make them look any good? Or should I just throw it out?

Hahaha, not quite .
Geelong has some nice beaches such as Bells, Torquay back and Jan Juc. There's about a billion more down the great Ocean road but I don't really go down there. And no swell? I've been at Torquay when the surf's been so big that they closed the beach... and also when the shark alarm went off, that was pretty funny, people went CRAZY.

Pretty nice to have 10 mins drive down the road too, especially during uni holidays when no one is around. No jellyfish either, just boofheads.

Can't beat surfing I say.... even when it's a public holiday and most of Melbourne comes down. Then it turns into a mixture of surfing and slalom, with many opportunities to "accidentally" crash into attractive, bikini clad women

Do it!
I love Satin black. If you do satin black though you HAVE to have red steelies with whitewalls.

I reckon you could chop a good 2-3 inches out of that roof too.... Then all you need is a straight out side pipe and you can scare the bejesus out of the neighborhood children.
