I currently have a '71 Datsun 510 that I'd like to find the time to restore.
I'll try to dig up some pics of it when I can.


Please post the info and pics of your projects that you either are currently working on or like myself need to find some time/money to get to. :mrgreen:

Sweet. I used to run 510s, great little cars. I had a 69, a 70 then a 72, plus a couple of Datsun trucks. Just sold off all the performance parts I had left a couple years ago.

Now my project car is a 79 Mustang coupe. Its presently stripped completely, but hasn't seen much work for quite some time. Other things just seemd to take up my time and money, but I hope to get back to work on it before too long.

Mine's a 1980 El Camino...(it's actually a Caballero, but for whatever reason we've always called it 'the camino') been in the family since 81... was my Dad's. I bought it in 98, sold it to my bro in law in 01, he pushed it from garage to garage talking about fixing it up, then sold it back to me in 07.... (my Dad passed away in '03, so I had to have it back). Check out the pics, you can see where she's at now... well, there needs to be some updates.... the engine and tranny are mounted. The front suspension, steering, brakes and wheels are on, but you'll get the idea.

My best friend had a 70's era Orange 510 Station wagon. The thing was bulletproof. Had many a fun time tooling around town when we were in highschool.

drop a 5.0 liter in an rx thats crazy, when all ya got to do is bridge port the 13b put a new carb and header on it and ya got 300hp nd it weighs half as much as a 5.0. just my opinion though. as i was going to do the same to my first gen rx when i ws back in highschool. had a done up 327 vett engine sittin beside my rx but then thought about all the mods id have to do with suspension rear end tranny and crap like that

this is my 1974 mazda b1800 it is all original with 45000miles. i picked it up from an older couple who were the original owners since 1974 and drove it very little. i picked it up for $300. so now i am going to work on it all i can.
i am rebuilding a 12a rotory for it that i am getting bridge ported, a webber 45 carb kit and a header with 3 inch straight pipe exhaust. looking into getting some 17in chrome rims and some lower profile tires. i am hopeing it will be done by mid summer if all goes well with work.

2880lbs with a chevy motor the 5.0 is a bit lighter then the chevy.
2645lbs is a stock 2nd gen rx-7 the turbo 2 is 3003lbs

http://www.grannysspeedshop.com/

has a kit for under $1500

i would love to have a brudge ported rx7 they sound amazing but under 8 mpg... thats just retarded with bigger injectors tuned down and a better computer system i could be getting 20mpg and still have a awsome car.

the marine apprentice
01-01-2010, 03:30 AM
not saying it would be a dumb idea it would be awesome to do that. i had a buddy who used to live in edmonton who put a 5.0 in his first gen and it was just crazy the power he had. it was gonna be alot of work for me to do that when i was 17 but now that im 26 and know a lot more about the rotory ill stick with a bridgy. my mechanic tht helps me out with my rx-7s has 18 of them all done up for ice racing and time track. he has an old rx3 that he has all tuned up. that thing sounds amazing.
his first gen is exactly like the one i drive everyday, yeah even in the winter everyone thinks im crazy but its fun.
im excited to get my little truck running this spring with my 12a i am working on that truck is geared low as well so it will be awesome off the line

01-01-2010, 03:38 AM

ya man that little trucks going to be awsome you should do some old school 4 spoke drift wheels with stretched tires.

where did you get your wheels?

axis OG's

http://www.axiswheels.com/view-wheel/ogsan

talk to any axis supplier, you should be able to find them for around $700-800 for the set. lol i am a bit or a wheel whore as my friends call me, changed my wheels 6 times on my 240sx when i had it.

So i better post some pictures of my old beast, gave it up to enjoy the salt water hobby:

1990 nissan 240sx (looking to buy a new one in the summer)

Never got around to painting it before i sold it. bought the car back in 2003 and sold it in 2008 to a friend who painted. and its for sale again lol

This is it in 2004

early 2008

mid 2008 till i sold it, went back to oem look. I got sick of busting bumpers

after i sold it my friend raised it (was to low for him) put another kit on it, and painted it

http://i357.photobucket.com/albums/oo19/cjbiblow/001.jpg


And this is my baby that i replaced it with. waiting on new levers, grips and bar ends right now. next is race rails and new tires

hey lorenz0 the 240 is that the same one for sale on beyond does it have a wide bodykit

lorenz0
02-03-2010, 05:17 PM
yep thats the one. it only has 30mm over fenders in the back and he added spacers to pull the wheels out. I keep telling him some new wheels would make the car look better with that kit. my friend rob had the same kit and was running weds kranze LXZ's and it looked sick.

speaking of cars, i remember when yours was for sale last year or a year before. i was debating about buying it because it came with the ITR wheels and new paint and was one hell of a deal

Boy this brings back memories!
I had a '73 4-door that I used to Autocross in Edmonton
Lowered, Konis, twin Mikunis or Weber DGV depending on the gas price, short header + 2" exhaust, Yokohamas on Mini Lites, Formuling France steering wheel, 4-point belts for racing, HD truck clutch ...
Lots of miles & a great ride!

Have fun with it, I know I did with mine,

Here is one of the dumbest things I ever did... fast but a waste of money. Didn't help that I redid it once and never liked it so did it all again. I'd rather have a new car ahah And it took up a crap tone of my time. B16, turbo, hondata engine management, lighter flywheel, better clutch, short shifter, black widow crx body kit (took some mods), larger injectors etc. Did all the body work myself :)

Ripped half my bumper off on a pile of snow the other day :)

Here's another project my dad and I did when I was 16. My first vehicle :) Started as a rusted piece of crap from some farmers field in sask some where.

I'll scan in some photos of how it started but here's how it look after the restore... but it's been sitting in a garage for 6 yrs now

Lots of sweet rides on here. My bro bought a 2009 Dodge Challenger SRT8 six speed in January last year. He has already modified it to just over 500 horses. When summer came I could no longer live without a hot rod - so I bought a 2007 Dodge Charger RT Daytona numbers car - rolling a HEMI (350 horses) and sublime pearl paint. Had to park her for winter and cannot wait to get her back on the road in the Spring. Gonna do virtual street out at Race City one night this year for sure! Sorry I am at work and don't have access to my pictures.

Basically took me 2 summers to do the wide body on the civic. I was so sick of it by the end! And it wasn't exactly fun driving around with half a wide body kit on for a year.

First time round on the car only took a few days.

Truck took us 7 months but the body was ROUGH and that's wiring, interior, glass, etc.

Well after countless hours of windtunnel testing, we opted against it as the extra horse power was not needed.

Here you can plainly see that it was engineered for great downward force as stock.

If you`re using the stock head gasket you`ll prob blow it pretty quick at 8 lbs

this is my old ride please note the flames and happy faces the happy face in the flames are for the memory of the van before it. someone lit the neighbours garage on fire wich in turn melted the whole drivers side of my van. the only saved decal was the happy face on the drivers door. as well note the fake spinners i didnt get the spoiler attached yet but its in the garage hehe. replaced the engine in it and added dual exaust with chery bombs. i get bored what can i say

my new project/daily went back to my VW roots. I bought new suspension (springs and shock) and I hate how it sits in the back. New coilovers will be going on in the spring and than just motor mounts, all new front control arms and I have to re-do my vacuum lines. Maybe space the wheels out a bit more, haven't decided yet

here are some pics

the engine bay ... not pictured is the voltage stabilizer, the bottom mounted garret t28 or the GT spec Apexi exhaust.

the specs were rather typical for this car
Engine: SR20DET red top upgraded ... mostly everything.
t28 turbo, BOV, turbotimer / boost controller, alt, M-type intercooler, full aluminum rad, high temp tubing, and so on.

Stance coils, 5-zigens, powerslot cryo rotors, hawk HPS pads, Kumho supra rubber, VLSD, all that fun stuff

Pretty good guess Murray.

Its a 67 1600 and the holes you are referring to are for stock fogs.
Body looks pretty good from further away but up close it shows its age. The mechanicals are super though with a lot of new parts.

I guess I could ad to my list of forever builds. I ended up selling the EG K swap project(pg 3) to my brother who is almost completed it. The 240sx vert got written off in a stupid break and enter crime. Now I ended up with this

1972 4dr 510
He is in excellent running condition, bought it of an older gentleman who had it stored in his garage for 13 yrs!

My plans are:
Already swapped in BMW projector headlights and HID light Kit
SR20DET swap motor
-11" rotors with Wilwood calipers
-Custom suspension
-Refinishing the wheels as they are true Panasport wheels
-Bride seats with custom made Bride seats in the rear
-Complete overhaul on the exterior including new paint, remove all rust, undercoat underneath the car, and rechrome the bumpers plus replace any lost or damaged trim. (booked in DEC 2nd at resto shop)
