Now there's something you don't see every day.

Open in new window

A dual sidedraught manifold, for the oval port bolt pattern, but for the round port shape.
These heads are around, but I never imagined someone would make a performance manifold for it when the oval port head would be a better choice in the first place.

Only at the Sunny Truck Shop.

Very cool David.

Still yet to see a 1200 ? I guess you should see one for sure at the Sunny Truck place.

The larger parts were less expensive than Nissan USA (which no longer can get them in any case), but the smaller parts were about 3 times higher (one screw is 30 cents US, but about a dollar here).

There are some shop in Yokohama that specialize in Datsun/Nissan, and one that specializes in Sunny Truck! I plan to visit that one tomorrow. They have emblems advertised. Aoba Auto

Yes, Japan have "conforming" emission-control rules. You are only allowed certain modifications, I think either engineered or from a rulebook.

My friend says in 20 years of living in Japan, he has never seen anyone working on their own car (not even to change the oil). Every takes it to a shop, however I did see they sell oil and filters at the local department store.


Any reason why they dont do there own that you know of ?

Sure come down to Aus I'm sure someone would come and get you in there 1200.
