78' Nissan Skyline GT 2000 Modded up
I went to High school in Japan (graduated in 86'), and my first car was a 1978 Nissan Skyline GT 2000 coupe which I hopped up. I pulled the 2 liter L20 inline six and replaced it with an L28 out of a 280Z (Nissan Fairlady in Japan). I then had a speed shop bore it up to 3 liters, do a big valve job, pulled the fuel injection out an replaced it with a six pack of 45 Weber carbs (3 two barrel side drafts with funnels), headers, Trust dual exhaust,MSD, limited slip diff, high pressure fuel pump, and KYB oil adjustables all the way around. That car was a lot of fun (till I lost my license for an excessive number of speeding tickets) and had to sell it. Great memories.
