ARC Group N (P) Corolla

After a slightly disappointing run at Rally Canberra the car is being readied for Rally Queensland but will do a short local rally at the end of May.

Retro Rally Project

The Datsun 1600 historic rally car is nearing completion. The car has been painted and the L series engine, 5 speed gearbox car and R200 diff have been installed. The 4 wheel disc brakes, pedal box and associated plumbing are done. The doors have been reassembled and hung. The dash and the custom wiring loom have been installed with some minor work to finish. The fuel tanks and fuel lines have also been installed. Some minor work to the windscreen wipers is needed to complete the car.


Drifter

The Drifter is not far away from completion although progress has slowed somewhat with the Datsun rally car project taking most of our time. The engine, transmission and Ikeya suspension are all in place. Lately we have been concentrating on the set up of the Autronic engine management system. For some pics click HERE
