Re: Datsun 260c
Just had a massive catch up on this build. Wow! I'm so glad this car is getting the treatment it deserves! Everything is excellent, keep up the good work

Re: Datsun 260c
Hey guys sorry for the lack of update's, but really there hasn't been any to post. Me and Missy moved in together. So we have been getting on top of bills etc... I haven't even started the new engine yet as I still need to buy the oil cooler lines. Should have them in a few weeks hopefully. How ever I did buy a bigger oil cooler for my RSfour waggon and used the old one for the datto. I was going to mount it on the front bumper (Like the old school JDM's) but didn't as the oil cooler is the wrong style and I don't want the car to be visually loud. How ever I have scored a nice jdm front grill for it. Waiting for it from Japan.

Re: Datsun 260c
New grill from Japan fitted it today. Not sure if I like it just going to leave it on the car to see if it grows on me.

Re: Datsun 260c
Boss kit came from Japan on Friday. Fitted it today as well as my oil cooler lines (nylon fibre braided hose) I had a hard time finding the oil lines as I didn't want plain black/blue or stainless steel braided line's. I'm getting new headers next week as I didn't like the ones I have. Getting close to starting it soon.

Re: Datsun 260c
Got these today. Much better than the Australian made ones I have. If anyone is looking to buy headers for their L series six cylinder, I would recommend them to buy them off this guy. Trademe user name (jedsplace)

Re: Datsun 260c
looks good.
how well do the headers clear the steering?
