Dawsonator's 1984 Daihatsu Charade There's nothing tricky about this baby, she's all original since day one (1984)She's running with no turbo or any performance enhancing gear. Costs are pretty low as it only cost $25 to fill this baby's tank up, she aint thirsty and can handle any situation (exeption: steep hills lol)Just kiddin, slide this baby into low and she'll make any decline.
Paint job in biginning was
shockin, canarie yellow was turned to
orangy used cutting compond and she
never resists a good turte wax.

Dawsonator's 1984 Daihatsu CharadeWhen I got the Charade,it had been in an accident and so the front bumper was kinda caved in.Had to remove front bumper and panelbeat tin bracing strait,therefore correcting the plastic bumper!(sowy no pics, camera was no working!

THOUGHTS
All u guys have the stock bumpers
installed on ur Charades so I don't
know if I should get new stock ones,
body kit would be nice but damn
expensive and stocky looks quite good,
nice and original ey! The best way is to sand down the bumpers and apply a plastic primer which u can pick up at any of ur bunnings or paint stores and then apply some black 2pak! If u don't use the primer then the paint will only last about 6 months before it starts to crack and peel !!!

Ok so my thoughts have changed a little since u guys viewed this page last, the plan is that i am going to pick up a nice g100 front cut which houses the CB80 engine !!! That engine is then going to be ported and polished while my current car is sanded down and resprayed, having the interior trim redone aswell !!! Coming off the turbo manifold will be a 2" exhaust by lukey where no cat will be present creating ultimate power! Wheels will be upgraded to 17 inch as explained further on in the page and for those whom thing that 17's aint gonna fit u talking bullshit so u better wipe ur mouth mate !!! This babys gonna prowl and ya'll gonna no bout it if ya in do neighbourhood.

Has anyone had troubles with their iqnition manifold/enclosure thingy?
