Was an awsome day even tho it felt like it was 35 deg in the shade :D

Would encourage everyone to come along next year, there was only 1 C10, 1 C110 sedan, (looked good and was packin a turbo L6 ) my lonely old C210 and a hand full of various R30's.

Here's a couple of mine from this album---> All Datsun Day 2010

Harvooo your Coupe de green machine is looking way to fine. That colour has come up a treat and those mags do it much justice, are they a 70's cheviot wheel. They remindinded me of a mates 307 chev powered escort back home in Nu Zuland.

What have you ended up with under the bonnet your so keen to show off?

Love your work Dan

That coupe is awesome.

Is that the original green they came out with?

I had a sedan in that colour and really loved it.

Got a great pic of my daughter polishing the front bumper when she was 3....time flys.. she's a 28yo school teacher now

Had a pale yellow coupe too ,got it when less than 12 months old (both manuals)

Wife just reminded me we had a black auto sedan too (wish i'd kept them)

Thanks mate, it's nice to have some photo's that aren't taken off of my phone. The wheels are oz made cheviots and they'll do for know I suppose.....

As for the engine there's nothing under there worth showing off just an old fella reminiscing "about the good old days"

current engine set up (minus the Holly/charger, standard carb still on there)

Thank you too mate, colour is not original but similar. Pretty happy with how it has turned out still needs a lot of work and it dosent help when your mates have got 400+ rwhp Dattos :(

that color is freakin awesome mate! stands out!

is that a drop-tank i see?

It dose look good all polished up and out in the sun, and thats a "imitation drop tank" just a cover for the shitty looking spare wheel well.

WHat front bumper is that?

normal one painted white?

It's just a standard issue bumper with shitty chrome and the rubber strip taken off (hence the holes along the front)

ps: I'm still chasing the trims off the front of the bonnet/guards if anyone knows of any? can only try :D

I've been looking for a C110 for a while with no luck.

Maybe I should consider one of these as they're a bit easier to find and a lot less prone to rust.

RB25DET with triple webbers fitted would be cool

Hey Chris, I don't happen to have your old coupe do I. Mine was a yellow one once. It came with the big workshop manual and it had been traded in by some people from down my way, Rockingham or Port Kennedy erea. Maybe you had it before them. Do you remember the plate number?

I took the DR out for a few hours in the morning but it looks like I missed that photographer. There are a few of mine on japannostalgiccar.

It was a good day albeit bloody hot in the tar carpark. I had to take the kids to a birthday in the afternoon so unfortunately couldnt stay longer.

Loved your C210 Harvo, kept telling my kids I used to have one just like it in orange, everyone used to call it Jaffa. Except for the ever encroaching rust it was a great car. Sold it for $1500.00!

yeah, thats my coupe, did alright at the event......

That was the stand out car of the show in Adelaide and it should have been awarded that. Not just my opinion, but most of who I spoke to thought it deserved Car of the Show, no matter what everyone else has said since.

I was branded a trouble maker for suggesting such an outcome.

It sure is a treasure!

Cheers, D

      Neo Turbo Oil/Water Feed lines

      By laner · Posted

      Hey all. I'm up to doing my oil and water feed lines. Has anyone done a tutorial on this on a 25det Neo? ( I know i should be asking for a tutorial on how to use the search instead, but I couldn't find anything specific) I'm running a Pulsar 3584 on a 6 boost manifold. I could use some advice on what fittings, sizes and where to run the lines. Thanks for any help.

      Stagea Suspension

      Hi, I have someone interested, if it falls through I'll let you know.  I have a brand new set of fronts that  I sourced from Bilstein UK, now revalved and complete with springs to go with the very lightly used rears, if you are interested in a full set. As Duncan has mentioned this is not my job, I sold my suspension business over 10 years ago, but I am here to help when I have the time.  To give you some idea of my schedule I was at SMSP for the State Championship for 4 days the weekend before last.  Then The Bend for 4 days last week and back at SMSP testing this week, a day visit to One Raceway, then the SMSP Day Night meeting the weekend after.  I was hoping to squeeze in a dyno day with Scott on my R32 this week, but that's not going to happen, that's the second time I have had to postpone. Apologies if my responses are slow.   Cheers Gary

      Ha ha ha, I read that he had it based on brownie points so knew it wasn't going to be sold   I also am only shit stirring on buying, while they'd all be great cars, I don't need more, I actually sold one a few weeks ago. And immediately bought more tools...

      I thought you might have asked about the Honda, but as the boy just wrote off his Patrol, and was trying to find a cheap daily to get by with, I decided to give the Honda to him
