Will see what I can do for you coupe72001.

We should all make a commitment to try and get our 210's to the Adelaide Meet. Ten or so of the Old Schoolies would be sensational. What do you say guys??

Thanks guys, lots of sanding done and still lots to go :banana:

I'd love to see some pics of DOHC210's car, I suck at the hole computer thing to but you'll work it out after a few triple posts of random computer speak instead of the pictures you wanted to post :rofl:

Is your motor an RB30/25 frankin motor? sounds awsome.

Adelaide's a long way from Lithgow guys, always keen for a road trip tho.

anyway back to it, car aint gonna paint it's self.

Cheers Dan

Details of the event in Adelaide are rather scarce at present. I read about it in the latest Zoom Magazine and contacted

Carolyn Kruger

Chief Organiser Skyline Nats

President Classic Skylines Australia inc.

She referred me to the www.classicskylinesaustralia.com website and they had info on their meeting that they just held in Winton Raceway in Vic. They will be updating their website re the Adelaide event in July 09 so don't hold your breath I have checked out their website and compared to this it is to say the least sparse, but may be worthwhile checking it out from time to time. They are also holding a Winton Track day on nthe 12th of September if you are interested.

Dan what is a frankin motor? I have never heard that term before. Am also working on getting a few piccies up for you guys so please be patient.

Hahaha, frankin motor as in frankenstein as in bits from different engines put together to create a monster :D

Checked out www.classicskylinesaustralia.com, pretty quite over there but hopefully it takes off.

I'm off to recover from sun burn/heat stroke now, It caused this today :P

Hey, hey

I'm still plodding along with the new paint, hard trying to stay motivated when there's so much sanding to do :down:

But anyway, where getting there :D

more pics of the beast, got my paint already (tropicana green) but it's to cold to paint now :)

I did get the engine bay painted tho, flat black FTW....

and yes the bonnets black too, had the black already so used it as a practice run.

shiny but needs a bit more work, maybe next year

just needs a supercharger now :)

wow, it's been so long......

Been flat out the last couple of weeks working at the new house/getting ready to move. Packed up all the Datto bits last night, still so much to do, but at least it sounds like a Datsun now.

Thanks guys,

Only thing I've done is put the twin tips on, been so busy at the new house.

Off to Darwin tomorrow for a much deserved holiday, then we move house when we get back. Hopefully the new stove/toilet/hot water/carpet is all done before we get back.

Well here we go, I'm about to embark on a low budget, big headf@#K, supercharged L6 skyline.

Starting out with a stock, unknown k's L24 in the C210 coupe = free (budget still in tact)

One 310? Holley 2 barrel carby = free (needs a rebuild)

One SC12 supercharger from an AE101 4AGZE corolla = $140

Fabricate mount/s for SC12 at work = free

Fabricate custom inlet for SC12 = free (pending 2.5" mandrel bend)

Modify factory alloy outlet for SC12 = free (cut, rotate 90deg and re-weld)

Fabricate adapter/plenum/enclosure for Holley = free

Will have to work out the rest as I go.

Here's some pics of the progress so far,

200x20mm flat bar over kill? yeah, back to 10mm

Image193.jpg

Mount for engine, Round bar for lower s/c mount, Small bracket for top s/c mount

Image194.jpg

It fits (yay)

Image197.jpg

Template for top bracket

Image195.jpg

SC12 inlet on engine side is a bit tight for space, will come out and up on a tight 90deg bend then over the top to where the air filter is. Well that's the plan anyway :)

Input and constructive criticism is welcomed,

Cheers Dan

looks like your well on the way!

there are some mean SC setups on hybridz.org, I have seen them mounted on the oil filter side of the block too.

getting the holley jetted correctly is going to be the hardest part i think... i got no real experience except when my uncle bolted together a similar setup on his sigma when i was like 16...

he could either have it running like a friggen missile on boost, but no low end driveability or idle...

hey interested in making some dump flanges at all?? looks like you know what youre on about!

Wow... a supercharged holleyed C210 is both unique and really interesting.

There is a guy in the Nissan Datsun Sports Owner's Club making a supercharged 280zx using the AC mounting brackets like you are. Can't remember much of the details other than that it will run straight LPG. Will post all the details after the next time I see him.

Also, I have a dirt-cheap Holley-to-L24 manifold in the garage if you need it.

Cheers, D

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
