funny guy!!!

 

 

lol, i found out my problem. when i was putting my harness together under the dash, i may have had a few drinks. i was really wondering about this "starter relay" that kept clicking when i turn the key...........

 

little did i know, while i had a nice buzz goin on, i plugged the starter harness into the headlight harness and vice-versa!!!!

 

 

what an idiot. needless to say, the car starts now and i tested the lights....they work too :D

I doo love a clean engine bay. Almost a shame to put the hood on. Get one of those clear hoods the kids had back in the era of the original Fast and the Furious. So itchin' to paint huh? What are you going to do about your own Datsun?

well, its been awhile, haventdone much to thedime besides drive it every day. had some motor problems, motor started smoking when i had it for sale. the day after, it quit and hasnt smoked since.

 

so i just decided to keep the l20b in it because it runs great and gets good mileage.

 

 

last night i played with the coilovers.

coilovers are all the way down here. not functional, crossmember was less than an inch off the ground. sure looked cool though!!!

 

this is how it sits now after cutting and re-welding the inner wheelwells in the rear. lowered it about an inch and a half all the way around.....

all in all, rides better and doesnt rub at all.

next, the rollbar is coming out and im gonna put all the interior back in it and get back on the bodywork
