  1. Happy early pappies day to all the dads. Hope you all have a fun day with your little helpers

  2. So, I'm eating primally, feeling better, but I'm confused about something. If our ancestors were healthier and we should live like them, does that mean I can bash my co-worker with a rock when she annoys me? #DealWithItPrimally

      haha, perfect, but then I'd have an annoying bitch in my cave...

  3. Got in the car for work this morning and the first thing I saw was the coupe sitting on jack stands, waiting for some love. Really need to finish the brakes and go for a joy ride.

  4. So, this might get me shot, but what happened to Jalen? Have him and Tristan ran off to live in BLUE's basement?

      Shame really, stepped in to back him at one stage, sent him some Aussie goodness, suffice to say the guy bummed out. He could have been a player, though he bummed out and now ranks (imltho) at the same level as Laotsu

  5. That moment when you can't decide on replacing parts or just getting the damn thing on the road... If it works, don't fix it?

  6. Someone shoot me... Removing the fuel tank from the B210 coupe is a fucking pain with 4 flat tires...

      I can only imagine.i dropped mine yesterday at my buddys shop with the lift and a tranny jack.took like 15 min to get it out of the truck.though I cleaned the rust and the filler neck has a big ass hole and gass leaks when I try to pump now........

    2. bananahamuck

      i undid the straps and hooked a chain around the filler hose,,,hooked it to bumper of truck.. Then a little "let-er happen capp-en and boom right out.

      Oh no... I can't do that to the B. It's too clean and I'd find a way to blow something up.

       

  7. Got my FSM for the B210s, but might need some tips for easily replacing the clutch, fluids, and possibly seals on the trans all by myself. I might have a spotter but no one else will be under the car to assist.

  8. Anyone here know much about longboards? Looking to buy a beginner board to cruise around campus that can support ~230lbs.

      Haha, thanks guys. I'm looking at a landyachtz evo or loaded fattail as I've found good deals on them. Just need to make sure the Evo can handle the weight.

      you can always get a 2x8 cut it down and install trucks.is that not the cheap ass RAtsun way?

  9. Ok, so the clutch is stuck to the flywheel due to my "new" b210 sitting for 12 years. I've found a new clutch kit that is reasonable, but can't find a new flywheel except for racing ones. Any leads?

      I'll have to see how bad it is. I have another one in the A15, but had hoped to find a source for a new one.

    3. bananahamuck

      Just take the flywheel to "auto" machine shop,, probably can resurface for about $25.

    4. Draker

      I had the same thing on my dime. It's not a big deal. Just have it resurfaced.

  10. How realistic would it be to plan on driving a stock B210 to Canby? 5500 mile trip...

  11. Today has been a ood day, and will be followed by a lot of work. Need to replace a bunch of hoses, a clutch, all fluids, and all brake components in a single owner B210 coupe. Fun times.

      I know right... I am in love with that interior. The drivers seat has slingt rips in it, but that should be expected after almost forty years. Really want to have it reupholstered just to keep it all stock.

  12. Well, I finally got caught being too trusting. Master-o-turbonics (Daniel Miller) talked me into delivering parts with another delivery I had to do almost 6 weeks ago. He has avoided all attempts for me to get my payment or my parts back. I trusted him because he is a reputable member of Georgia Datsun Owners FB group. Sadly it's my fault for being naive, but people should know.

  13. Someone motivate me to finish this stupid college paper so I can get to work on the B...

      I wrote two English finals about my 521 at the time. A on both. I actually got more work done as a full time student than I do as a civilian.

  15. Just drove the 620 on the long trip to work. First time out on the interstate since August of last year. Was fun, and slightly strange. It's good to be back on the road without a crazy car payment.

      What's a car payment?

      Something that takes away Datsun money. So happy to be done with all that.

  16. Let's do this! Just ordered my R1 carbs for the B210.

      A 4 door B210 at that...

  17. Anyone have a '74 620 radiator they can measure? I need that year specificly. That or PM me if you have one to sell. The 75-78 are wider and won't work.

      I honestly have no idea. The 73 had the L16 like the 521s. If you could get the measurements that would be great. Then I can make up a cardboard block and see how it fits.

      I have a 75 if it will work...hell you can have it.

      19.5 inches wide mounting bolt to mounting bolt. 2.5 inches deep. 17.5 inch tall from bottom to top of cap. These are not exact, but they are pretty close for eyeballing it.

  18. So, anyone know if Experimental Engineering (VG30.com) has completely shut down? The site has been "under construction" for months now.

      I spoke with them on FB. The new site really is under development but he is still manufacturing the parts if you contact him. Just need to find a VG33 oil pan so I can have it modded and get the mounts.

  19. Any tips on tracking down a slow leak in my brakes? Rear resevior has lost an inch of fluid in three months. Seems too slow to detect.

      Could be a seal in the caliper or wheel cylinders. Since the parts are cheap I would just buy all knew hoses and rebuild the calipers and wheel cylinders. Or all four calipers (if that is what is equipped). It would be obvious if the leak was coming from the booster, or cylinder.

    3. Kirden

      Kirden

      It's all drums. I may look at replacing all of it in the near future though. Have some of beebani's disc brake brackets for the front if I ever get around to buying the parts.

      I've just been borrowing a drop a day ... don't get mad bro it's for science

  20. The 620 lives! Still a ton of work to do but it's back :)

  21. Got to stay motivated. Tomorrow starts 4 days off. Time to throw parts at the 620 and see if the beast will at least roll over a little...

      it wont happen if you just throw parts at your truck.

  22. Anyone know if Optima makes a battery that will fit in the stock tray of a 620 and B210? Need a battery to start troubleshooting/tuning.

    1. Kirden

      Kirden

      Mainly worried about the hieght, most top posts hit my 620s hood. If anyone has successfully used an optima please share the model #.

    2. Eagle_Adam

      Eagle_Adam

      I've had several optima's in my 620's

    3. Kirden

      Kirden

      I'm assuming in the stock tray then? Just asking cause I oredered a battery that was supposed to fit a 74 620 and when it got here it was about an inch too tall. The negative post hit the hood.

      If I could find a 521 I would, but I can't, and I don't wanna be like tanker... Maybe rich, does 521 come with winning lottery numbers?

    4. mrbigtanker

      mrbigtanker
