hey guys,

well to start of this is my first datsun ive owned soo any help at all would be good, ie: parts suppliers near brissie and other useful people..

well this is the first car i have owned.

anyway to the details, it is a Datsun 120Y 4 Door Sedan, A12 engine, 4 speed auto, good interior, no major dints, having the small ones takin out before i get it...

engine is in sweet condition, runs smooth as a baby's bottom, no smoke, starts first go, tyres are stock, same as everything else....

in my course of this project gonna strip it down, get a paint job, new tyres, wanna get a CA18DETT engine but probably cant afford it now

(anyone know price for an alright CA18DETT or DET)

maybe a sunny 5 speed manual, (any suggestions here for others) gonna get a new diff, dunno what yet, thinking a 4.1 ratio but we will have to see.

umm, gonna try and get so9me body kit parts if i can find any...

and just make it live up to the datsun reputation

i will take lots of photos once i get it on tuesday 4th

Prices i paid to get it: all in $AU
car it self was $350
$70 for 4 near new tyres (spares)
$35 for a battery
$123 for the rear left brake as the cyclinder had exploded o_0 and the line was ####ed

$80 for a road-worthy
$around 350 for rego

gonna get it on the road as i hate drivin my mums car to TAFE >_< but i will be doing as much work as i can while still leaving it running for work an tafe

most of the major work will be done on the holidays soo i wanna get it all lined up to keep me busy...



P.S. if i can get a hold of a CA18 does any one know a good company or person in Brissie to install Methanol Injection into it, i have most of the parts and Methanol... its coming out of my dads VL
