EA82 Engine at school
i got a question. i just found a EA82 carbed engine and 2wd trans bolted together on a engine run stand in the back of our shed at school. im gonna talk to my teacher on monday to see if i can buy the engine and then go to a bone yard and find the fuel-injection for it, and if i can also the turbo settup to put in my wagon later on. but a buddy of mine told me that he probally wont sell it, school reasons since we both think it was doanated, so what parts should i grab if i can. alt, coil, starter, water pump? thanks for any info.

Strut Tower Braces
im in the process of building a strut tower brace for my 86 carb GL wagon. im mocking up a piece of steel tube to bend around the spare tire, between the tire and air box and to the other side and welding it to the stock dinky little one. monday im bending the tubing, and ill bring it home and trial fit it, if it works ill take mine off and weld the new pipe to the old one. i will also doucument the whole process. so if anyone is intrested in having me make you one please speak up now. im going to start building custom parts for my subaru now so my car will be the guinea pig for them like all my other cars. in the past i have built custom lowering blocks for my 78 C10, a strut tower brace, sub-frame connectors and lower control arms along with reinforcing my panhard bar on my 83 camaro i had. ive never had a problem. so if your intrested please speak up. Thanks Shean

Surging at part throttle
ok well we noticed this problem when we picked up the car, we took her out again today, me dad seems to think the carb is floddin at part throttle. the car just boggs down and makes the whole car surge forward, but if you let off a little its fine, or of you push right past it its fine. what do you all think, it happends if i have the turbo running or not. ("turbo" off a 84 300zx, its more of a electric blower) thanks for any help. im gonna fix this, and then probally try to track down the oil leak i have thats dripping onto the exhaust. and then try to make a new muffler settup taht will make it sound a little more beastly, but not loud.

Whats up? newbie here
well its what datsun called a turbo, i dont really consider it a turbo because it doesn;t recitulate the exhaust gases like a normal turbo, its more of a supercharger but on a much smaller scale, since it just has a little electrical powered turbine. all i did was get my stock intake ducting and used the lower peace, it fits right on the outlet of the "turbo", then just built a bracket out of sheet metal until i get back to school from our snow. and just wired it on with the ignition power. i talked my dad into letting me drive it again tonight, but this time in the snow, last time was after the oil change to see if it ran better, (had lisence, but is now suspended for 6 months, only about 3 more to go) i put it in 4LO and it seems to pull harder then it did before. had my dad ride with me and i took him down the cultasac and back up, ginglrley shifted into second and was powersliding it up the street, kicking up sooo much snow, 4wd cars are fun. later i plan on doing it right with a EJ22T swap.

thanks, i paid $950 for it, the interior needed to be steam cleaned because it had like greask on the passenger seat, and needed to be vacumed because they owned a dog that shed BAD. but other then that and changing the oil because it had like over 5 qt.'s in it its a great car. here for pictures, it was a 40hp gain on the 300ZX but i dunno on my carbed roo, ill find out later, it seems to pull a little harder, but i cant really tell because i have a suspended lisence so i can drive on public roads. http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/486505/4
