....Well, that is the beauty of it, for 1350 bucks you can get a FWD plastic car, with a FWD understeer that could land you up a tree, only if the engine is in decent condition. 120Y with an SR20DET or a pichi honda plastic car FWD ....
...do not think it twice!
120Y, coil overs, sway bars, decambered rear leaves,etc, will eat plastic for fun.

good questions. You can find answers to these by using the Search box on the left.
Try: half cut
Try: SR20

also try getting half-cut as this will save you a lot as most of the stuff for the conversion are there and you can even sell the other stuff you dont need.

try doing a search on CA18DET and SR20DET
i've seen CA18 go for $800 with manual gearbox
and the SR will be around $1000 + depends on the yr and kms
try Asian Auto Spares I found them cheaper from the other import yards/wreckers in brisbane.
All Jap is next to being cheaper

try private sale like personaltradingpost or something, private sale is always been cheaper but then again you dont have WARRANTY

also try getting half-cut as this will save you a lot as most of the stuff for the conversion are there and you can even sell the other stuff you dont need.

good luck anyway

Hey drewboi,do not think that the sedan is not cool, I have seen sedans with nice suspension, in fact, a friend of mine in Miami has a 4 door sedan, lowered 2.5 inches on 13X8's and it looks mean and nice, 120Y's are strange creatures, they only show off when lowered, you do not know what you got untill you see it in road suspension.I have a coupe, but I like the rear tail area in the sedan, it is cool, drop it, and see.
Also, a 120Y with a fast motor is excelent, nothing beats the feeling of having others on the road look in wonder at the car that just seems too fast! that will be you, in the 120Y,1200 and 120Y's are my favorite Datsuns, later come the 610 and 710. But still, you could see 610's and 710's all fixed up, racing and so forth, but 120Y 's are so underrated that a fast one is a statement in itself.
