dont suppose any one here has a dato and knows what wreckers actually still have parts for em? i need to get the lil back quarter window for my pimp ride but it seems my traditional wreckors no longer stock pimp-a-licous car parts ;)

maybe its cause im the only person in adelaide that still actually drives one :D 260c not the most common 1, usual response i get is "whats that"

I have always had joy with Ascot Auto Wreckers (28 Deloraine Road, Edwardstown 5039, ph. 8374 3377) for my fleet of dattos but not sure what they would have for the 260c. Otherwise try the Datsun 1200 site, I have also found a lot of stuff there.

Cheers

Was gonna suggest Grand Auto, they are datsun specialists.

Alternatively never know if nisswreck or Just Nis-Maz may have something (but not likely)

Alternatively ask on either www.datnet.org, or check out the clasifieds on www.ozdat.com

      I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though

      $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.

      Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.

      I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.

      I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
