    Well the Datsuns ready for Santa Pod...

    ..... but am I ??????

    Taken into hospital last sunday and had to have surgery. Nothing really serious, but the doc did some nice knitting on me, and the doc has banned me for driving or going to work for 2 weeks. That means my driving ban is up on sunday 25th

    Stitches should be all out and then I will be ready. The car certainly is in better form than it has ever been




    And a 3mb vid of the new engine actually running vroom vroom!

    Still got a load of things to sort, particularly my diff, and brakes. Will get around to them asap but wont be done before HEXUS.meet

    Also put thinner oil in (5/40) for the first 3000 miles - will be going back to 10/50 then so the engine should quieten down and sound a bit smoother. Theyre rattly old things are SR20DET's. Though its the injectors ticking that make most of the noise you can hear I wonder if NISMO injectors are less noisy? Now theres a thought.....

    Cheers Skii

    Moby - nah ive got an S15 WMIC for now and that will do for what i have. ~15psi standard T28 standard injectors standard ECU.

    The next stage would be a FMIC, bigger injectors, bigger turbo and Apexi AVCR and SAFC. I am going to make that in one big leap, but not yet. Just going to enjoy what i have for now.

    Once i get the brakes done, diff on, and uprated ARB's it should make a formidable weapon not just in a straight line
