    Datsun 120Y

    Thought I'd get in the spirit of things and post up some details about my 120Y.

    Engine: CA18DET, stock internals as far as I know, S15 non-roller turbo, Microtech LT10S, custom dipe pipe and 3" exhaust, PWR Cooler, Just Jap alloy radiator.
    Wheels: Simmons Gold V4 15"
    Diff: R31 Skyline LSD cut down.
    Suspension: Reset leaf springs in the back, S13 struts in the front.
    Interior: Toyota Supra leather seats (electric drivers seat), S13 dash with custom surround, carbon fiber door trims, autometer carbon fiber gauges, momo steering wheel and a few other bits and pieces.

    Performance: 186rwkw on 18psi.

    I bought the car a few months ago with a stock computer and TRX rims. From there i've basically cleaned it up, put my Simmons on, fitted a few Autometer gauges (not pictured), fitted venetians and had the Microtech fitted.

    Plans: If anyone remembers, I used to own a Bluebird TRX with a CA18det. The engine out of that car is going in the 120Y. It has forgies, ARP head studs, GT2871R turbo, Tial gate etc etc. It made 228rwkw on 20psi. I am selling that setup, and I will be high mounting a GT3071R to this engine before it goes in

    Behind that engine, will be a Jatco which is currently being built, which is a full house box (transbrake, reverse pattern, billet valve body etc etc), and should be done in a few weeks, and I cannot wait :D

    I won the best Non-Skyline on the weekend at the Skylines Australia day, and also won a trophy for best modified car at the show up at Grenfell festival a month ago.

    These shots are a little old but I sorta rushed this so more updated pics will be up this weekend..

      Nice car. It's very tidy. I was trying to get my mate to buy it a little while back. Can't wait to see some progress.

          Too right mate, he did a fantastic job to get it to where it was when I bought it. I'll have to send some pics across to him once its done.

            I have always liked 120Y's for their crapness... but that one looks really sweet in white with the V4's. I love it!

                I usually point and laugh at 120Y's but hey, that actually looks cool... :oh:

                I was about 8 years old when my Dad made Mum trade her beloved 120Y in on a brand spankers 351 XD Fairmont Ghia. She still hasn't forgiven him and still refers to it as her favourite car, despite having owned a million better cars since then ?? :w:
                The older i get, the better i was...
