It`s kind of hard to get her into sunny,
She thinks that the lack of head rests and no rear seat belts makes it un-safe (I think might be right especialy with her daughter in the back seat) but it was fully legal in `67.
But I have yet to show her what the old fella can really do (I probably never will) this will be our little secret ok. She never looks at my youtube videos anyway.

If we have some good weather this weekend I`ll get a video done.

Cheers,

Datsonovic.

Hey Cobber,

I have got a couple of vids but the camera i have seems to distort the sound quite a lot and you can`t hear the "truck like" turbo spooling up.
I`ll see if I can wrangle the girl into taking a video from the side of the road and give it a squirt. But she`s not into cars, but I`ll see what if she will do it for me, might have to take her out for lunch or dinner.

Cheers Mate,

Datsonovic.

I had not taken the old fella (B10, A15 turbo 25 psi, dellow 5speed, B/W sigma diff, 4 puck ceramic clutch.)for a run in a while, and it still goes like stink.
It always seems to surprise me about how the old fella can fry the rear bags in 3rd gear when I plant the right foot.

I had an a-series fly wheel machined to suit a 200mm celica 4 button ceramic clutch and high performance pressure plate, and although it is a little troublesome in the supermarket carpark it is worth the comprimise.

I`m thinking that I owe the old fella a few bones and thinking I might go for some sort of after-market EFI system, I think i like the sound of the Megasquirt system, but some say "if it aint broke don`t fix it" however although it starts without any problems, it does use quite a lot of fuel (10-12 Ltrs/100km) and runs a bit rough until the inlet manifold heats up.
I know that I`ve got to accept the robbery of peter to pay paul.

It seems I have solved the tramping problem that was quite an issue after the swap into the sedan, with a set of new urethane bushes in the back end (what was I thinking with original `67 items)

I love driving my old datsuns and hope I never have to result to to driving a modern (1981 on) car.

I know I`m probably in a fortunate situation as I live in tassie (no road worthy, have pleanty of money and, can weld up almost anything) but I work hard and pay a lot of taxes and rego.

Has anyone had any sucsess with the megasquirt system?

Any positive and or negative comments will be greatly apreciated.
