There Must Be An Avenue


Recommended Posts

Wow the costs have really inflated!!

I bought the Front Air Dam about 12 months ago for about $280.00 but had my son who is cabin crew with Qantas bring it back for me.

Hope you will post the piccies when it is all finished.

Does anybody know of a generic rear wing, with a stop light built in, that would fit onto the Coupe Boot???

I would like something that is not over the top. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Have seen the ducktail from a Torana on this site and it looks a bit Twee to me was thinking of something like simple like the early Silvias and I just wanted the stop ligh for additional safety. Too many over 70 drivers in Adelaide that dont pick up stop light too quickly.

Appreciate the thoughts though racesov!

Hi all, got my car back from engine builder the other day. I now have the heavily ported Brock heads, Edlebrock Performer manifold and a H226 crane cam that makes the car sound like a drag car. I'm very pleased with the outcome as it's still very streetable and it revs nicely with those Yella Terra roller rockers. The heads had to be shaved 100 thou to get compression up as the bottom end is stock 308. in time I'll rebuild it with flat tops and get comp up to about 10;1. Feel like I should be writing this on Aussie V8 website. I'm going to do another vid for utube soon if anyone interested.

    • Finally had some time after working on other projects to jump back on this thing. Pulled all 4 wheels to check the brakes over and lucked out, only needed to bleed them/change fluid to get everything working!    Took it for its first quick spin (around 2km) up the road and ran great! Sounds like I have a left rear wheel bearing that needs replacing and there’s a shake in the steering wheel but the tires are absolutely junk on this thing and had been sitting flat when I went to first look at the car so we’ll see if that’s the cause.   Tach randomly started working but I notice if my hicas light comes on the tach stops working 🙃 yay for electrical gremlins 
    • Bunnings car park it is! if you buy the kind of dampers with the adjustable top on the strut you can see it, red, purple? So many options.
    • Yeh a meagre benefit, what strut tower brace are you using? Eventually all the suspension and tyres are done and you get to ... meagre benefits. Narrow end of the wedge, all that stuff.
    • Yeh not doing anything with spacers at all, ty for the info
    • Indeed. Mitsuoka always did their magic on various Nissan models, but because the Nouera was going to be in the medium sized sedan class, they decided not to try and modify the 2004 P12 Nissan Primera because it looked too modern combined with the 1940's styling. It would contrast way too much so they went with the more suitable CL7 Accord... 😆
