[QUOTE="LiamC, post: 777231, member: 26105"] OK sadly I've only made a miserable amount of progress on this car due to personal circumstances but that is all about to change this week. I'm picking up a Nissan Figaro engine, ECU and fuel system. This means turbo time for my little K10. The plan is to pull the original MA10s engine and box out of my car, make a Frank special hybrid-clutch and use the original 4-speed box on the new engine. Obviously a full service and flush is in order for the engine (hopefully there won't be any stupid small differences between the engines but knowing Nissan.......). I'll be using the figgy fuel tank and lines so that's all hopefully bolt in and go. The ECU side of things should be the same story, all going well. Body-wise the car is getting un-facelifted, but I'm keeping the original modified face-lift bumpers and civic skirts I got with the car. I need to do some research on exactly what's needed for the pre-fl swap but I know I need the slam panel and bonnet hinges for sure. I found a New Old Stock bonnet from a Nissan dealer that wasn't painfully expensive which I'm very proud of, and I already have some head-lights which came with the car. I've also bought two pairs of Datsun style rear lights as I much prefer the smaller size, and I'm hoping to get Datsun front indicators so I can flush the side indicators out. I'll finish this update with the small amount of work I actually have done to the car. I've properly flushed the number-plate light/rear wiper/lock holes on the bootlid as imo they had been done very poorly, as well as the fuel flap lock hole. I've now fibreglassed and fillered the holes and I'm very happy with the result. Next on the list for this type of work is to flush the boot handle/indicator/aerial holes, then that's all the fibreglassing work done.
