Christ that turbo is hugeness.

It won't inhale the engine will it?!?! Just joking, looks bloody marvelous.

Great to see a project build smashing through time, too many projects cars up for sale at the moment and by the looks of things this beauty is gonna finish pretty soon.

Dash came out splendid!!

cheers guys, yeh i have been in the position of selling unfinished projects too many times, and the amount of work i have done on this im not even thinking of selling it!

no updated pics... building a car at christmas time sucks arse, ive been in this position before lol.

On a plus note im picking up my new gearbox on saturday.. scored a bargain on ebay!

4 speed Jatco
Full manual valve body
fully strengthened internals, kevlar bands etc
billet input and output shafts
Transbrake
3000rpm convertor

Will be working on it flat out until christmas so stay tuned for pics!

ok so i picked my new box and convertor up! really happy with it, seems to be in great nick and has been looked after.. Have organised a bellhousing to fit it behind the CA so i should have a crossmember made and the box fitted up over next weekend!

today i boxed up my boot so it looks a bit nicer and also cut out my spare wheels well.. anticipating something that may stick out the back at a later date :P

Should also have my 31 diff shortened up and ready to roll next weekend.

finished my diff off! was pissed off waiting around for some mates to help me out with it so i tackled the job myself! turned out great and was alot easier then i thought... dropping my axles off to be shortened during the week..

some pics

Hosing chopped up and the tubes shortened.. once you have gone this far there is no turning back haha



spun these up on the lathe and plug welded them into each side of the tubes





hit the pieces together in teh right spot, ground a V where i was to weld



welded it up and hey presto... 1 shortened diff housing!



Also knocked these spring saddles up also, still have to drill the hole for the shock mount





And here is a #OOPS#ty pic of my completed dash!..



enjoy

Well, I think suspension also need to have a look as changing the suspension of the car will make it move smoothly without any trouble as its is the part of car on which whole weight of car lie

but how the suspension of the datsun be improved , and what is the suspension system would fit for the datsun
and also the brakes , ( my datsun has bad brakes itis the worest system in it )

My old Sedan! such a good body... i miss her. haha
