Sure do, i go by the same name on Ratsun/Zilvia, pretty much all of the forums. But i've seen one or two other people use my name so don't always assume it's me. I have a build thread on Ratsun but it's kinda finished now.

Re: Datsun 620 kadet

Looking good. I also have ka24de 620 but mine is not nearly as nice. May be one day i'll do KA-T but it's scary as is - driving it.

KA24DE Rebuild Kit?

I've been looking for a rebuild kit for my KA24DE. I can't seem to find any. Would it be a better idea to buy all OEM parts?
