Hey There

Im new to this site but would like to find out info about the Datsun A12 motors...

Over in NZ I race a Mini stockcar which we all run either Datsun 1200s or 120ys or a toyota...

Its getting really competitive now and Id like to find an possible advantage to get over the others....

Whats the difference between all the other 1200 engines........??

The one im running atm is a datsun 120y It has markings M2 and m22 on it and I have a M2 M79 one aswell.......

We arnt allowed to do much to the engines as it is suppose to be a budget start out class but any ideas are welcome...anything that can help make the car perform better..

has to be normal carbies and all..so if anyone on here knows if diffrent blocks heads or cams are better than the others could you please send me a pm or reply in here cheers

Clicky the Wiki over there <----------- and find all the info you could ever want...

Oh, and welcome to the site

oka u need a gx engine they came with twin hatachis from stock and maybe get a port job upgraded ignition ect extracters it all adds up

ow and the the gx engines came with a lumper cam than normal a12

Thanks for that mate..

Ok so I have found out the GX is the best motor to get but...Can u run the standard Card setup on that motor? im looking through on the wiki but cant find the awnsers il keep looking but info would be appreciated

thanks Spence but we have to run the standard carbs its part of the rules over here :( Were would I be able to purchase a GX head??? Im guessing they wouldnt be illegal if they work with a normal a12 motor and come standard?

i edited my post as i didnt read yous properly
your better of buying the whole engine if possible as they cam standard with flat top pistons and a bigger cam and twin carbys higher comp ect

You dont have msn by anychance so we can talk on this issue a bit better?

also this is in our rules..

Donor cars are Datsun 1200, Datsun 120Y and Sunny
1200cc using A12 engine, or Toyota Corolla using
1200cc 3K engine, no SSS GT or performance model
cars or parts

so does this mean I can not use the GX motor? as its a performance model?

most probly yess

Thanks for that spence

Can U add me on msn?
