With the plasma cutter, if you use a straight edge that can keep the nozzle about an 1/8th inch above what you're cutting, it works a lot better. Keep practicing, Fabrication is awesome.

This has been my favourite "build" if you will by far haha. Love the old school Japenese era!! And these leaf spring suspension issue has really helped me with my Datsun 120Y (B210 for you guys haha) build and I'm glad I don't have to break the bank getting a 3 or 4 link rear end!

Will be alot more fun than their stock drive train though 😉

That Before/Before of the wheel hop there Mike haha!

I have a 1200 ute I imported from Japan and I'm so glad that a big creator is giving it the love it deserves!

Dude this is one of the best vids I’ve seen from you in a while. Feels like old times. I love it.

Yo Adam watching you guys run that lathe was pretty scary ! You should always have at least 1/3 of the part clamped inside the chuck to avoid it flying out. Also your tool is out too far, dont be afriad to use the tailstock to help keep the part secure and run true ! Not to mention invest in a cutoff tool, Using a turning insert for a cutoff tool is innovative but not the best idea 😂A good set of verniers and micrometers will also help you with tolerances.

Use the center to line it out before clamping instead of hamering. If you start learning things the proper way its 1/2 the job done. Get some equipment like dial gauges and use them to line out. The first time you work with an independent 4 claw plate it will take have a day 😉. Nice to see you doing things yourself again like in the beginning when i started following you.

Haha man, i was cringing from the first time he said “let’s lathe it down” Ive had the thought a few times of trying to start a consulting business for KZreadrs 😂 where I come in and help them get setup and teach them how to use basic manual equipment. So they don’t lose an arm to a lathe or look like a buffoon.

needs to buy some viking shocks with studs on each end. will fit straight in with the holes in the caltrac spring saddle bracket underneath the diff. watching this was frustrating haha

I’m loving this new car and Adam doing things MOSTLY alone! Trying to best the shock on with the plate in the way, had me lmao!!!! I love the car and love the regular simple way of doing things!!!

I really love the fabrication in your videos I’ve always worked jobs in machinery and it really shows me how far my knowledge could go.

There is a beauty to classic Datsun's. I'm new to the channel, and didn't realize you were in the FLA. Glad to see something good from my state.

Haha great video man! Loved the way you showed the whole process even tho it wasn’t working out. Turned out to be a success!

So good having the old school jdm content. A kp starlet or ke corolla would be good to follow!

“Lathe it down” 😂😂 Come on Adam, you ‘turn’ things down on a lathe 👍

Adam LZ Awesome Video I'm glad you guys fixed your Datsun 1200's Wheel hop problem and I can't wait to see more of the build

Watching this bring me back to old Adam videos and it’s amazing

Adam kinda seems like a liability using power tools and equipment. But at least he is learning and growing confidence in his own abilities. Keep it up

My s10 truck runs 5.80s on no prep on the street with just cal tracs, trz antiroll bar, and viking shocks on stock leafs with overloads removed...they work incredibly well

Cool I really liked this video.. this is the fun part of building cars running into problems and using what you got and your imagination to fix it instead of having someone else do it for you or buying new parts specially on old cars like these!! 🙌🙌

Happy to say i commented on the last video about installing cal-tracs for a period correct build! Hope you researched and took my recomendation (as an old school hot rod guy)

Been an rotary aussie drag racer love puerto rico these vids are mad!.🇦🇺🇵🇷

Graham’s guest appearance was awesome hahah. Nice video, good meknekin on the ole 1200 😂

I love these little cars and feel in love with rotary engine when I was a teenager Puerto Rico race teen came to atco race way but still have not built one but it is on my list after finishing my current projects

that before & before comparison was sick!

Graham making fun of the kids hammer sent me😂😂😂

Love that this car is a straight driver not a full on build just making her right something to tinker with

Probably my favourite build on the channel

Wow, I watched the whole process and I'm really happy that it worked out for you. On the other hand, according to my thorough calculations, if you had Superman fly in the opposite direction of Earth's rotation and change the effect of gravity on your wheel hop, it would have been easier and cheaper in the long run.

Datsuns are common here in Australia. Have a look at MADDAT they have plenty of parts for the 1200. Like there awesome s chassis crossmember conversion that I have in my 1200 ute

these daily LZ uploads are giving me actual life

Hell yeah, looks like they made a world of difference 👍

So refreshing seeing content like this

I sincerely have you as an example to follow in this life, greetings.

This is like watching me or any other average person work on a car 😂 it’s great

Love this video has the old school vibes of adam in the garage at the house.

Loved the Before and Before comparison 😅🤣

the right part for the wrong car works all the time with a layth good job adam, trac bars is what i said it needed

Yeah that entertainment value was over 9000 😂 Loved this one

I love you Adam. I hope you see this your videos give me motivation to keep going

Instead of smashing on the bushing in the leaf spring, you can just put it in a press or bench vice and presto....! (Kinda fun watching a noob just learning the hard way, it's why I love favrication... the tricks and tips are seamingly endless when it comes to producing a component)

this is my fav car in your line up

👍🔧💪 Adam's determination to not only rebuild the entire car but also overcome challenges is truly admirable. His commitment to the project and the effort he puts into finding cost-effective solutions is impressive. It's intriguing to witness his dedication and problem-solving skills in action. This video sparks my curiosity about his innovative approaches and makes me wonder what other unique solutions he'll come up with. Keep up the great work, Adam! 🚗🛠👏

So stoked about all the rotary content lately!!! Are you guys hiring?

Love the before and before action 😂

Cat tracks are run successfully in some no prep vehicles with well over 1000 hp. Slapper bars are so old school cool

The before/after clip at the end just says before/before xD, but damn the difference is nuts! The Datsun looks like so much fun!

Loving watching you do it wrong rather than paying someone. That u-bolt engagement is sketchy though. Get some longer u-bolts any medium duty truck spring shop can make you some.

with a live axle, one of the shocks is supposed to be in front of the axel which helps dampen any axle wrap

Idk if I’ve ever seen wheel hop from the inside of the wheel before, looks so much more violent.

From my perspective of how you took the video.. The hanger that you pulled out to press the bolt out looks like it can flip to the other side of the car and vice-versa and give you a few inches in length extra based on the way the tabs are sitting it looks like could be wrong but that's how it looks like from the video
