Long term Datto 1200 project
Hi guys,
Long time lurker, first time poster. I thought I'd throw up some pics of my Datsun 1200 ute that I've owned for the last 15 years. I bought it with the intention of tuning it into a drag car one day. I ended up using it as a daily driver, and all but forgot about it for 10 years. I finally got to the stage where I could put some time and effort into it, only to have my father pass away. This led to the car sitting around for another 5 years. This is where I am at right now, just doing bits and pieces as I go... Setup is pretty normal at this stage. - Ladder bar rear end - 26x8.5" rears - 5-stud conversion with coil over struts on front - S5 13B BPT built by Jed - Proboost SX368 turbo - Gforce 101 clutchless - Running E85 Those are the main ingredients so far, but at this stage I'm working on a trans tunnel, making up a turbo manifold, and adapting an FD upper intake manifold for more firewall clearance/better looks/better performance. I plan on starting small and working my way up as I get used to the car, and get some reliability out of it. Always keen to see other dattos out there! Cheers, Leigh https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx7...892672fd07.jpg https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx7...f74ebfb7b9.jpg https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx7...e213256fcf.jpg https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx7...563d73de05.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx7...d8072b6dbf.jpg |

If anyone has an FD upper intake plenum and throttle body for sale, please let me know. Also, toying with the idea of running methanol, but need a Ron's mechanical fuel pump! Thanks.
