An 80s Nissan...
#7
A few more details!

It is a twin turbo and I have been told it has had a power increase from a previous owner, only a shot on the dyno can verify this. Full boot from standstill in the wet is a handful and I love it Big Grin 

It's been converted to a van..... Yes, I'm deadly serious. No back seats, all plylined and carpeted with a mesh divider. Because of the tax on this car would be €1494 for the year a few years ago there was a craze in Ireland getting cars like this and making them commercial to avail of the €333 tax. I have seen Mitsubishi GTOs and Supras suffer this! Even an AE86 locally had a full checker-plate conversion  Nospeak  This is the only Z I've seen commercialised (no I didn't do this to it nor would I do it to such a car!)

I haven't really done very much. Serviced, brakes changed, fluid changed to DOT5.1, radio torn out as it was draining the battery

Stuff that needs done:
  • Torque converter is wanked out
  • HICAS delete
  • Overhaul power steering
  • Tidy up the flappy bits of trim outside
  • Source and sort out petrol leak
  • Replace broken stud in the rear left hub

Further down the line
  • Install the hydro I have 
  • Manual swap
  • Colour change
  • Turbo upgrades and FMIC install
  • New wheels
I still have other cars to sort out too aswell, it's finding the time to do all this  Sad
