quote:</li>
I actually saw an aftermarket turbo kit in a Popular Hot Rodding magazine, back in the seventies. They had one installed on a Datsun 1200 [A12]. It was a simple kit, no intercooler, and used the original carburetor. They ran the car in thr 1/4 mile before and after, and this crude simple kit, made a huge difference. If I remember right, it was about 1.5 seconds in the 1/4 mile.<li>Popular Hot Rodding (sometime in the mid-to-late 80s) - has a photo of a wheel-standing 1200 coupe with Toyota power</li> <li>Popular Science Dec 1970 - "Popular Science Car Test: Little 2-Door Sedans with a Low, Low Price" <li>Road & Track Nov 1970 - "Road Test"</li> <li>Road & Track Mar 1971 - 1-page advertisment for Amco accessories. <li>Road & Track Sep 1970 (mention in "&" column with photo of 1200)</li> <li>'Road & Track Jul 1972 - Pete Brock's 240Z 510 & 1200 Performance Components</li> <li>Sports Car Graphic Sep 1970 - road test of 1971 Toyota Corolla vs Datsun 1200</li> <li>Time May 7, 1973 - The Gas Guzzlers</li>
