I'll stick my neck out and say: 'Why not consider an L20b + 5 speed conversion?' A stock L20b would provide decent torque and the 5 speed (early dogleg) would give good cruising on the highway. I est

I'd second that - buy a nice original or a restored car and you will still have plenty of work/maintenance to do! If you spend $1500 on a project and then find out what parts cost you may end up with

I bought new seals and a brake hone and worked mine over pretty well. As the stones on the hone started going away I realized it was hopeless since there were still pits showing and bought 4 new cali

The Truck uses a small 1 into 6 plenum. The 200sx uses a mid size 6 into 6 plenum. The 300zx uses a large 6 into plenum which requires that the engine be moved forward of the firewall for clearance.

Hmm I thought the stock wiring and ammeter was rated for 30 amps. If your battery is discharged and you have accessories on you may fry wires and toast the ammeter? Tom W. - what are your thoughts on

Tom and folks: I am intrigued by a simple conversion. Would it be possible to use a 30 amp aircraft style circuit breaker wired right off the alternator to protect the old systems? If some odd condit

I did this and found the setup is fun but I don't think you really realize the benefit unless you can get the gearing down a bit. I'd like to find 4.11 gears but I've also heard that using the 1600 3
