Hi,

The datsun 1600 rally car that I use for amature racing has been stolen,

its blue (a bit darker than standard r34 blue), has a datsun 2L (L20b sohc) with twin 45mm webers, jap 5speed box, full autometer gauges (the big shift light tacho stopped working on sunday and the rest are in a custom alloy pod that replaces the ashtray bit of the dash), checkerplate door trim, isotta DSX steeringwheel, hydrolic handbrake, crane ignition system, holly fuelpump, home made exhaust with 3A racing end box, viscus R200 LSD and bluebird TRX wheels. the car isnt in great condition but has everything needed to do its job.

also stolen, the car trailer (tandem tilting, grey), duel axles, very well made with a tool box either side at the front. in the rally car were two R32 skyline mags (starcorp tracers 17's with federal performance tread one had a puncture repair job) and two stock R32 rims painted silver.

all of this was stolen last nite/early this morning from Oborn rd Mt Barker from a mates workshop.

we have spent many years trashing and repairing this car, I learnt to drive in it and it means a great deal to us, the car body was origionaly owned by my mates grandma.

people may have seen me and my mates dad racing it at lonsdale mitsu plant on sunday.

even the smallest leads are extreemly appreciated.

cheers

    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?

    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
