Right before I sold it...
Clicking noise is a leak in the balancing tube (welded day after this video) Some sloppy shifts due to slack in the rear end and un-adjusted clutch with cracked clutch arm bracket.
I loved/love this car! So much fun to drive...

The ultimate showdown. 1977 Datsun 260z driven by son Tom, 1993 Toyota Supra mk.4 driven by Dad John.
It had to come to this
