New project...
Been looking for a while for a useable project while I make my mind up about my next build.
Ended up with this
Its got a naughty L28 janspeed turbo engine fitted My first play with turbo's so lots to learn.
Initial plans are to sort out some niggles, fit 4 matched tyres(2x 225/50/15 and 2x 205/50/15 any suggestions). Then work out how to get it running
as good as it possibly will. Looks like my laptop wont plug into it though....
circa 1000kg too so its not porky.

Nice.
I see the grille as having a cheeky smirk face.

I was going to say period Samuri conversion but with the turbo it's already a Ninja.

Very nice.
But look after the gearbox because if it explodes it'll be raining datsun cogs.
Sorry

I'll swap you for a car thats a few years older and tax exempt:
 
Scimitar
it just needs 'a little TLC'
really I'm just jealous - I love the look of the 240's

You bought it then? Looks ace. Not 100% sure about the wheels though? Could it be lowered a touch?
