Hi All, Recently picked up this Sunny, Pretty original car with good history and 25k miles. Have some plans to change a couple of bits over time so i'm joining up to keep an eye out for parts mostly. Id like to do a coilover conversion on the front so if anyone has some standard front strut assemblies sitting around i may be interested so i can use those and still keep my original parts.  I also own this thing which is a bit more modern but may be of interest to some. This has been getting a lot of work over the last year or two to bring it back to where it should be after a previous owner had i suppose not taken care of it like it should have been.  Ill keep some updates posted when i remember of the Datsun as i go along but for anyone who is very interested i do regulary update instagram with parts and updates on Both cars, Superwhite_SW20. |

It is well known in these parts that the B310 Sunny is the best car ever made, so looking forward to this  MR2 is also welcome here. |

Cheer's lad's, Not planning anything crazy for it. Some easily reversible suspension stuff and a nice set of wheels and tires to improve the drive and have it looking a bit better. I'm not going to deep on this one i just want to enjoy it rather than going down the rabbit hole we all know too well haha
Or those could be a case of famous last word's, We'll see haha

I had a mk2 mr2 naturally aspirated 12 years or so back so I'd be very keen to see some more of yours. I can throw in some updates no problem, It currently looks like some form of large lego kit in about a million pieces It's having a gearbox refresh all new bearings and couple of synchors that needed sorting, while the engine is out i'm giving it a refresh in the form of all new gaskets it ran strong before taking it apart so i don't want to go to deep engine wise as i'm not planning huge power. A turbo upgrade is also in the works, The old CT20B was on it last leg's so i decided while its apart now is the time to do it. This is how it looked when i first got it, Plenty of tacky stickers etc, It did have genuine greddy side skirts and spats but i prefer the OEM lines on these so went back to standard bodywork wise.  While it's been having that done I've been collecting some parts I've wanted for it. New condition, Boxed TOM'S gearknob, unsure if I'm going to run this one yet. I want the ball type version of this one so if i can find one ill run that and keep this one for something else.  Rear TOM's strut brace that i will most likely be refurbishing in as close to original finish as possible. And one of my favorite wheel's Flat face P1's that will be going on.  TOM's wheel that i managed to gran from a local enough guy, pretty lucky find but i paid a nice chunk of money for it   Couple more small bit's i have for it, Greddy Boost gauge and a gauge pod that was 3d printed to fit into the vent. I'm hoping to have this ready for this time next year to get some driving done in it but i'm not rushing anything either and still have some parts in mind id like to get for it. |

Those B310 Sedans are such good looking cars, and your plans sound like they're going to improve it even more!
