Thanks Guys

Appreciate the comments especially as this has been a mission....lot harder than I expected.

Not sure on the wheels as they came on the car.

The seats are out of a 2003 WRX crash test car so were virtually perfect unless the dummy crapped himself.

Rears were trimmed to match

Car is fitted with Konis and Nolethane bushes all round and drives like a new car

Underneath has been fully proofcoated after minor rust plating.

The examiner remarked it was immaculate underneath and called a few of the other inspectors over for a look :P

So, That's stage 1 complete so I need to decide what to do next.

I just want a nice streeter to use in classic rallies etc

That is Sweeeeeeet Chris. It's so good to see cars of this era restored to the likes of yours. Hopefully we'll meet up one day at some vehicle convention here in the West. Maybe Motorvation or Powercruise or even better a Datsun/Nissan event. Gee let's start planning that!

      Turn signal wiring question

      By Duncan · Posted

      Yeah good point, it won't flash on indicator that way, so plan B, just another wire to run from under the dash which makes it a bigger job 30 to indicator + globe side 86 tapped into 12v input to flasher relay under the dash (has 12v when indicators on, nothing when no indicators) 87a to headlight parker + 87 to original indicator + chassis side 85 to chassis/earth Now it will flash with indicators and be solid on with parkers

      Nissan Gloria Hy34 issues

      By OO Dan OO · Posted

      I am having issues I believe with the throttle body. The butterflies only open about 1mm on the bench at full throttle. Is this what is supposed to happen? does it use the motor for the rest? I am able to manually open them up the hole way but it sounds like it is on gears.

      Currently at 380rwkw with 2860 -5's & b cams on e85, trying to make it have a bit more torque/usable power down low.    Ive googled the v cams and most sites say discontinued, is there anywhere you can still get them?

      Most hardlines are available new still. But unless they're rusted to the point of needing replacement you can just zinc or cadmium plate them to keep them going for decades to come. Regarding the turbo drains it really depends. Braided lines might be better if it's a straighter path than OEM but I would not assume braided teflon lines will never leak. Teflon is a very durable material but you can still abrade, erode, or otherwise compromise its integrity. The return hoses on the bright side are not that hard to access relative to a full turbo removal so if things go wrong you can always put it back to stock. You can very easily drive yourself insane analyzing every little change, or maybe that's just me.
