takjak2 Posted August 16, 2022 Report Share Posted August 16, 2022 I love me a Datsun, I love that price, and this one comes with speed holes. But the high-school welding on the cage at 1:08 of the video does not pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwbakk Posted August 16, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2022 It's true, you may have to grind out a few welds and re- weld them but for the price it is well worth it.Here is a list of the parts we used for this build, all new except the carb witch was rebuilt. 1977 Datsun 280z Race car build Roll cage kit 700 Fuel cell with hydromat 1000 Fire suppression system 500 Wheels 500 Front brake Toyota conversion 500 Rear brake disk conversion 200 Poly suspension bushings 200 KYB strut cartridges 200 Silver mine upper strut mount 360 Seat 150 Gauges and switch panel 250 Ignition module and coil 100 Fuel pump 80 Master cyl 80 Clutch master cyl 30 Header 150 Holley carb 200 Brake lines 100 Red line fluids 100 Quick release steering wheel 75 Exhaust pipe and muffler 75 Radiator 150 Lexan for windows 200 Brake prop valve 50 Total $5950 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbogrill Posted August 20, 2022 Report Share Posted August 20, 2022 Given that these cars are 150pts and decent fuel tank they actually have quite a lot potential. If you know how to assemble engines you can get about 200whp without much fuss (huge cam, home polish, megasqurt/carbs, header. There are plenty of 300whp+ cars around from the L28). Lots of suspension options. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
