Recommended Posts

Model: 1981 Datsun 1200 ute

Colour: Silver

VIN#: Coming very soon

Registration Number: Unregistered

Mileage: Unknown KMs

Price: $3000

I recently purchased this off a mate however I've decided I don't have the time to spend getting it on the road. I haven't got much information about the car, but from what i can tell:

-The body is pretty straight with only minor rust in the floor of the tub.

-The engine seems quite healthy. It starts easily, however sometime when it's warm it starts to miss on one cylinder; probably a minor ignition problem.

-It has a weber carb, extractors, and 17" rims.

-2 of the tyres look to be quite new; the other 2 are in good condition.

I acquired this car off my girlfriend a year or so ago and it has been my work car since then. It's a good, economical and practical car. It runs reasonably well, although the auto is a little lazy. The body is fairly straight but the paint is average. I cant imagine it would need much for a RWC.

Datsun 1200 ute Ad update.

  • The body straight. The only rust I've spotted is some minor rust in the tub.
  • It has been resprayed. I'd say it was just done with a rattle can but considering it actually looks pretty good.
  • It has a vinyl tonneau cover which fits great.
  • The interior has been partially reupholstered but still needs some items to complete.
  • The engine seems very healthy. It starts easily and runs smoothly. It was developing an occasional "miss" when warm but after playing around with the leads it seems to have gone away.
  • The gearbox and clutch seem to be in great condition.
  • It has a weber carb, extractors, and 17" rims.
  • 2 of the tyres look to be quite new; the other 2 are in pretty good condition.
  • It has a CD player with amp, 6x9's and tweeters. It doesn't seem to be wired up at the moment but its all there ready to go.
  • It has an alarm and remote central locking. I haven't had these working yet... could be that they're not wired in or could just be a battery issue. Shouldn't be hard to get running.
  • It also comes with what i assume to be lowering blocks and shackles (not fitted).

$2500

    • I'm a lifelong home drummer, was in a couple of bands as a teenager/early 20's then moved to Japan and didn't play at all until 2019 when my missus and I were invited to check out the band room upstairs at a restaurant cafe here in JP. They had a full acoustic drum kit and they let me have a bash for about 20 mins. I went away from there wondering how I could not play for 19 years.... Missus bought me a e-drum kit a few weeks later (Yamaha DTX402) which is basic but lets me play at home in my tiny Japanese house.  Also have an Epiphone Les Paul and little Vox amp and delay pedal I bought for the missus because she wanted to learn to play the guitar, but she never got into it. That was about 8 years ago. I taught myself to play some 80's U2 song riffs like the Fly solo, etc and some other things but being a drummer I don't really have the dexterity in the fingers lol. Ham fisted if you will. So I kind of just mess around with the guitar rather than try to seriously play complete songs. My son on the other hand inherited all my side of the family's musical talent and is a brilliant classical pianist at 16 years old. He'll go on to do something in the music industry here for sure once he finished his schooling. I got him a Yamaha NU1XA hybrid piano earlier this year.
    • If the BOV is plumbed in as mentioned, like stock.... why exactly would it stall? It'd be like stock. Do stock cars stall with stock bovs?
    • You mean a rich spike, as the air has been metered multiple times due to the turbulent air, you end up injecting more fuel causing a momentary dip in torque and quite possibly a stall event. TL;DR, install a Haltech Elite or S3 or R3, convert to DBW, throw all ancient shit into the bin and enjoy the car.
    • Can you pull logs of the actual idle fluctuations? The previous logs you posted didn't show any idle issues. Also if you can log idle duty cycle, idle state, injector duty cycle
