1985 Nissan Bluebird Series II GL review from Australia and New Zealand
"Time taker,heart breaker!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Carby........ blocked jets and poor quality (on the makers behalf.. Hitachi??)
Engine was underpowered and slow.
Water leaks around heater inlets.
General comments?
I've worked a lot now on the engine E.G: Port and Polish, Weber Carbys x 2, performance cam, and now as I type a new exhaust is being fitted (2 1/2"). Looking at installing a turbo, but need more info on the motor limits (psi).
Looking better everyday, reliable now.................. and super quick.
