Yes, PitRoad sells them for 1200 Pickup.

Open in new window


Or you can do it yourself. You'll have to design and fabricate some parts. Read up Rear Disk Brakes.

Sure can. Might be a little big. Most people use the diesel turbo off a 1.0 or 1.3 liter.

Nothing you hear is "true" when it comes to turbos. It all depends, almost everything works depending on how you do it.

You don't need:
* new pistons
* an intercooler
* fuel injection
* a special carb
Those are good for optimizations. But can turbo without it.

Read up about it in the Datsun1200.com Tech wiki: Turbo.

You don't need any blow-off valve or a wastegate...it all depends on your setup.
