What are these " SSR mk3 versions of RBs" u talk of?
8 spokes too ! not 6 , Mexicans.

Im liking that want you want to keep it A series (plz try and keep Aseries) especially being there is only a handfull of 1200s left in your country, and by the sounds of it its in nice original condition.
but if you really want it to perform well without spending a small fortune, ditch the datsun gear and put a toyota 4age in it. 100kw- 5speed no tunnel mods etc, parts are easier to get, and still common in geezer land .
or id just do simple mods to the original a12(keep numbers matching) spending as little as possible and aim for 80hp at the rears. 80 is heaps if you have the small light wheels on it.

$3000 I reckon we will see it on ebay for soon.

What fronts struts do have in the car? By the sound of it I would be looking for some b310 sunny wheels and do the measurements on them.

Well I think 6k is a massive bargain , 8k as it was listed for earlier, was too .
problem is 90% of Datsun owners are tight kents that's why datsuns have always appealed to us all here. They are bang for buck cars that are a pleasure to drive, cheap to run n maintain.
Just look at what a 240k or 240z will chase these days, n really those cars are a lot more common than a datsun 1200 2 door sedan.
If you a serious about datsuns and about restoring older cars like a rare datsun 2 door sedan , first thing u need to do is actually find one! . Coming across a complete one of these wont happen to many times, if ever again.
And People Really cant bitch about ebay tactics as everyone does it thats why clyson knows the story there, if its to expensive for u shut up n don't buy it . Let the bloke get as much as can, as the car deserves it.
Id love to know how many people just on this site have been watching it over the last few weeks just out of interest as u don't see something like that very often, especially in sydney .

Hectic bro

this car was originally automatic and when i purchased it, it still had plastic on the door trims, log books, and original 56,000miles on the clock. completely stock but it is far from stock at the moment. the paint is original, with original panels. the left hand front guard has had a dent bogged previously. this car has NO RUST. the body is fantastic besides the 1971 paint work which is showing its age.

Just Finish the job and thrash the tits off it! Upsets me seeing Another sweet original datsun totally molested and left unfinished. Shame on you

good video nice car control,chucking some small doughnuts and 8s isnt really drifting but its good practice for linking up some higher speed powerslides.

for the people that like to home brew


Formula #1 - Toluene
R+M/2.........114
Cost...........$2.50/gal
Mixtures with 92 Octane Premium
10%...........94.2 Octane
20%...........96.4 Octane
30%...........98.6 Octane
Notes: Common ingredient in Octane Boosters in a can. 12-16 ounces will only raise octane 2-3 *points*, i.e. from 92 to 92.3. Often costs $3-5 for 12-16 ounces, when it can be purchased for less than $3/gal at chemical supply houses or paint stores.

Formula #2 - Xylene
R+M/2.........117
Cost...........$2.75/gal
Mixtures with 92 Octane Premium
10%...........94.5 Octane
20%...........97.0 Octane
30%...........99.5 Octane
Notes: Similar to Toluene. 12-16 ounces will only raise octane 2-3 *points*, i.e. from 92 to 92.3. Usually mixed with Toluene and advertised as *race formula*.

Formula #3 - Methyl-tertiary-butyl-ether (MTBE)

10%...........94.6 Octane
20%...........97.2 Octane
30%...........99.8 Octane
Notes: Oxygenate. Very common in octane booster products. Has lower BTU content than toluene or xylene, but oxygenate effect makes the gasoline burn better and produce more energy.

Formula #4 - Methanol or Ethanol

Mixtures with 92 Octane Premium
10%...........94.3 Octane (Methanol)

Formula #5 - Isopropyl Alcohol and Tertiary Butyl Alcohol
R+M/2.........101
Cost...........$0.60-$1.50/gal

Sample Mixture
To make your own octane booster, it is easiest to make up a large batch, and then bottle it up in "dosage-size" uses.
Below is the basic formula of one of the popular octane booster products. To make eight 16 ounce bottles (128 oz = 1 gal):

100 oz of toluene for octane boost
25 oz of mineral spirits (cleaning agent)
3 oz of transmission fluid (lubricating agent)
This product is advertised as "octane booster with cleaning agent *and* lubricating agent!". Diesel fuel or kerosene can be substituted for mineral spirits and light turbine oil can be substituted for transmission fluid. Color can be added with petroleum dyes.
