Larry Chen attended the GT-R Festival in Australia and came across a very special build that is the brainchild of a pizzeria owner. In the 18 years Larry has been shooting car photography, he has never seen something this insane or unique. It's a 1985 Datsun Ute powered by a 2015 Nissan VR38 GTR motor with a one-of-a-kind turbo setup and fuel tank system.

Without Larry Chen none of us would know about 90% of the cars and events that go on around the world. Larry is Car Culture and we all appreciate Larry's dedication and hard work to bring us the best automotive content in the world. Again thanks Larry.

In South Africa we call them "bakkies" and the 120 Datsun is one of the OG's here. Later it was updated with a 1400cc motor, square headlights and finally a 5 speed box. They are considered indestructible. He would not be able to drive 1km here without someone stopping him and making an offer. Until eventually he would just be hijacked.

@berky1976 8 месяцев назад

I love engine swaps into things unexpected but cool and this is right there at the top for me. You can see how much the owner just loves the Ute. He did it exactly how he wanted it done and worked around issues with ingenuity. Plus I love those old imports. They just never had power and with so many options today, it is great to see what motivated people dream up. Great pick Larry. More like these please.

He said he looked around for the right ute and he found this one which was really clean. I took that to mean it's an Australian market pickup, unless of course he went to Japan to search for a pickup and brought it to Australia.

@justme307 8 месяцев назад

I knew a guy who had a 520 1300 back in the 70's. I drove it many times. Seemed the more heavy-footed I drove it the slower it went. It ran better with a light foot feeding throttle gently after upshifts. Probably carb issues, but that's my main memory of the vehicle. Learned to drive a stick with that 520.

These cars had 48 kW with the original 1400 cc engine, torque was 130 N.m Top speed 155 Km/h I think the earlier 1200 engine had a top speed of 135 - 140 Km/h
