Im board so i thought i would let you all know what is in the pipeline for the beast.

-P411 diff conversion and a H165 LSD from topgear on datsun1200.com
-13x7 Watanabes painted black (on the way now) and low pro rubber
-small rear flares to accomidate the wats
-redo all the front end and lower the whole thing once the wats are on.
-some oddball 5spd using a a series auto bellhousing(BMW has been sugested)


Just scouring the internet trying to find low profile tires for the wats. Best i could find are 175/50 but i dont think their AUS delivered. 185/60 seem the go, a few makes make that size so shouldnt be too expencive.
Whats everybody else running?

my shrinking garage is down to.....
2x 1600s
1x GQ Tray back
1x 300ZX
1x FZR600

All painted and polished now. 205/60 rubber on all corners in that pic. I have just bought some 185/60's off Neil for the front so it doesnt rip my guard off when i corner!

Ive also flared the guards using a hammer and dolly, actually came out pretty nice! Minimal bog required

Its gonna be lower soon too. As soon as these guards are finnished, its gettin painted! Hopefully back on the road for the cruise on the 16th!

if you dont mind me asking what did the LSD of topgear cost?

damm that looks shmick

I havnt got the LSD yet, hes apparently making more later this year. Donno if im gonna do the H165 setup still. Havnt gotten P411 housing measurments back yet! If not ill go R31 or something and get it shortened.

Yeh im chuffed with the finnish. A few little inperfections, but that was my fault rushing the prep for the cruise, im happy with it tho! My painter even overheated his 1200 on the way down to Neils workshop (from wanneroo). But thats cool, more water and off he went

Ill bring the rocker cover to the meet on tue to show it off
