Hi Rob,
Thanks for that. Re the aftermarket Jap springs- that's a big call given Tomei and Kameari have such good names. Have you had bad experiences with them or do you feel they are simply overpriced for what they are relative to the local equivalent?

Cheers

Thanks Guys, Morgan, I'll be interested to hear how you get on. Just had a quick look on the Pit Road website and the springs don't look too bad at 14000yen. Stuart Wilkins in Australia also list competition springs although I have no idea how good they are. Cleaning up a bit of a mess at the moment...

Does anyone know of any businesses locally ( or offshore) that stock quality performance valve springs/retainers etc?
Cheers

Jump onto Datsun1200.com and ask the question.
I'm sure you will get all the info you need.

138 flywheel hp- thats an unusual number?
To answer you question yes it is- still require a good head, cam, exhaust etc.
