I was wondering about that.I had thought of how much difference there is between the turbo cam and the n/a one.Anyone know how many degrees differnce between the turbo and n/a?

Plugged accelerator pump or jets. Clean the intake also.Possibly Egr valve.

Glad to hear the swap went well.I really want to see it.Looks great from the pics you posted.So how did you get around the emissions stuff?I am suprised you don't have to smog it.I would be interested to see what can be done to get around it.

They both look really nice.I like your white one!Only thing that would make it a little better is a rally roof scoop and a couple rally lights on the front.

I like it.Lots of them to look at.I definately like your power curve.

That would be my second guess.I forgot about the accel pump which would definately make sense.That would be a good bet.What carb do you have on you car?

Sounds like your carb may just need to be cleaned out a bit.I suspect that your mid range jet is a little plugged from the sound of it.Since you said that the gets sluggish when you gun it.Check your plugs and see what they look like I am betting that it is leaning out when it decides to die in the cold weather.What carb is on your car?

I am not really familiar with it but I thought those were part of the IAC.Part of the emission control stuff?I am kinda stumped as well.I could just look in my book I guess.

I like it.I like both designs.I have my own idea on the drawing board.I would like to have a winch mount.

I think it would be very cool if you did that.I will help find the heads and intake if you would like.Maybe I can help Jerry rig something. If I could I would like first dibs on your n/a heads from your engine.I should get somemore free time this week since I just finished up on a little remodel project.Let me know if I can help.

How many miles do you have on it? I recomend synthetic if you plan on keeping the car for a while.I personally use Mobil 1...But that is my preference.And for the oil filter I like Fram or Mobil.

You should be able to find those almost anywhere.I cannot tell you the number offhand but I know someone else here may know.Did you already pull the old bulb?

I second the try seafoam idea.Works good with almost everything that may have a little buildup on it or in it.

Looks like fun!

I like the datsun.I also like those old mazda trucks from the '70's with the rotary in them those are sweet too.

Looks like alot of fun.I had a red hatch just like that one.How long was the trail?Anyone break anything getting stuck?

Part of having a carb compared to efi is that the carb cannot atomize the fuel properly till it is warmed up.I had the same deal with dirtbikes or snowmobiles that I have had.I had to do the same thing with the hatch I used to have after I leaned the main jet out.Cleaning your carbs wouldn't hurt either.

Man that sucks to hear that.I have seen some people put the deck under their seat or make the dash recessed so that you can put a false trim plate over the face of the deck itself so it looks like it doesn't have anything there.I have had the same thing happen to me before.

I can relate to you all.I rebuilt a hitachi suby carb on the living room floor on some newspapers and painted various pieces as I went.My girlfriend at the time thought I was crazy.So is there an upcoming SAA(suby addicts ann.)meeting soon?

Welcome.Your rear hatch indicator is most likely worn out and will need to be replaced.Is your car carbed or efi?What other lights are on? Again welcome.

Yep should plug right in.Shouldn't be much differences if any on the wiring.

You might just want to try taking your tail light covers off of the car and clean them in some soapy water and them rinse them really well.Sometimes just needs some cleaning.Make sure you let them dry first before you put them on again.

Sounds like clutch pack to me.Is your car manual or auto? Also how many miles could be a good indication.Do you hear any noise when you are driving with the windows down?Mostly for the solenoid either they work or they don't.Since it sounds like it is trying to grab then I would lean more towards the clutch.

I hear delta cams has quick turnaround and they do good work.I guess you just need to figure what rpm range you would like to have most of your power.
