I reckon 180kw of fwd would be heaps of fun...don't bag it until you try something similar :)

the big questions for fun are power, weight and suspension, not just the wheels that are driven

Me too!

I got mine off a mates dad for $500

It was a 68 deluxe ( 1st with windup windows) with an all cast iron 850 in grey primer.

How about the carbie, you tune it by filling it with a different weight oil!

Hydroelastic suspension, no springs, just gel filled rubber things.

Old British stuff is a bit weird, brilliance mixed with stupid and ancient.

Actually when the New Pulsar was released, Therese and I went and had a look, half considered trading in the Micra.

They are a Very Nice and Tidy looking car.

I would then be known as "Got a Pulsar" or "The Nissan Freak Formerly Known as Not a Pulsar". :P

I had a clubman panel van with a 998 in it with remote shifter and 1.25'' SU carb.

My old man is such a mini nit he got a hydrolastic machine restored so he could change his own fluids.

It was probably even slower than my alfa 33 but it was just as fun as the skyline is.

Hey rob, you know how i said my foot was sore for unknown reason.... now it feels like its broken.

I know its not, but its a mystery why it hurts.

Suspension tweak worked good, maybe too much camber on the back, they felt warm on the inside, whereas the fronts felt evenly warm.

Straight line stability is less and cornering much better.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
