Have picked up a Datsun 120y and haven't got room or time for the hatch anymore - $800 and it's yours.

Re: How much does an 800 auto hatch sell for

$1500 isn't really too bad I would think - Mine needs a bit of work to reach roadworthy which would easily cost an extra $800 if I took it to a mechanic.

In that case, I definitely have some combination of poor tune, gearbox issues and dragging brakes. :(

Re: help with mystery hoses and wires??

Thanks Guys! The wiring would likely be A/C related because Suzuki didn't use bullet connectors in the engine bay from factory.

Auto. Shifts at around 43kph under normal acceleration, and around 56kph with the foot down hard.

Just thinking, It also appears to have air conditioning but the compressor is disconnected (compressor pulley doesn't look to line up with the belt?) - could this be to do with AC?
