Default anglia/nissan project

just new to the forum and i must say, the forum and the cars on it look great just thought i might as well make my 1st post a few pics of mine, these pictures are a wee bit old so the car is further on now than it is here.






still a bit 2 go with wiring etc....but should be out at the start of next year, i hope.
thanks for looking,
jim

Very cool. Sounds pretty awsome, very loud turbo whistle too.

Noticed it smoked a bit. To fix that, vent the cam cover breathers into a tank etc rather than back into the car, but you MUST fit 1way valves on the breathers so they cant breath back in, as that makes S13s smoke as bad if not worse than with the standard setup.

If you think you can turn up in a CA18'd Anglia and do well in a drift comp your sorely mistaken.
And if you think they will be upset youd be even more mistaken, youd get nothing but repsect, they not all blinkered idiots like you...
