Why not then A15 with the goodies you already have on the A12.

go the l series torque is fun!

1200GXman just imagine how much you would have killed that astra if you had an L series

Haha. I can only imagine PIGDOG. To be honest with you, when I was behind him at the beginning of that "togue" twisty part and I saw the "1.8 16 valve" badge on the back I thought to myself "this thing is going to kick my a$$.Oh well, lets give him a go at least". To my surprise, he really struggled.I could see the light black puffs from his exhaust when he is booting it uphills.As the saying goes, torque is everything when racing.
Oh, and I think he would not have been so impressed if I had the L16 fitted.But with the A12 it was like:
" I hate your 1200"
That is what I like. People's impressions.
Just compare the following:
"oh ok, you have a L16 motor that is why you were so close" vs
"WHAT! You are talking $hit.This is not a 1200.What did you do to it".

its jus goin to be a bit of fun for when i get my license i havent driven it on the road so im not sure how good it dus go but dad sed it gos gud i was thinkin about an a15 but i havnt cn ne around coz i live in a litl country town wer theyre is almost no datsuns at all at the wreckers and i know where theres an l16 that i might be able to get cheap so i was jus wondering wat would be beta THANX AGAIN Appsy1

if ya wanna a15 put a wanted up on the site or go to the wreckers and look for sunny wagons and vannettes they usaly come with a15s i would sell you mine if my bro didnt just buy it off me

haha ppl are always making excuses for why you beat them.....but you beat them so it doesnt matter

like i can make excuses why an A series beats me, coz my L series is ####

i reckon a healthy yet stock l16 would cain an a15 with 32/36 extractors and bigger cam

go l series torque

so if iwntd 2 spend sum money and more bigger pistons/cam and extractors and my 45 mm delortos and would my flywheel fit??
who would think that would be the way to go rather an a-series???

Ok, first priourity for you then before doing any mods is to get your licence.You want to modify it, yet you haven't driven it yet as it is.First drive it as it is and get use to it's handling and stuff and then decide if you wanna modify it for more power.
