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.

    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
