  1. :rofl: Maybe I'll just save it for new years. and be like...... surprise!
  2. :thumbup: She approved. I have not decided on it yet...... soooooo...... :fu:
  3. Monkeygirl insisted on contributing :confused: FUCCCKKK that. I'll stick to googling
  4. That's a pretty interesting history. I oddly enough, like the color combo.
  5. It was pretty solid :thumbup: We had it on two stands, and it gave us more then enough room to get around.
  6. BUMP! So we went and picked Daniel up a nice L28 and some goodies today near Stone Mountain, to transport to his fab shop. Got there and turns out I met the guy a month or so ago at a meet. The easy way to unload from a trailer... when you have access that is! So now there's a donor L28 for this pig, and it should be done VERY soon. Within a few short months hopefully. _DSC0136 by metalmonkey47, on Flickr _DSC0139 by metalmonkey47, on Flickr _DSC0140 by metalmonkey47, on Flickr Probably one of the coolest parts of the truck is the bedsides, mounted on 4WD hubs that rotate the bedside out for easy access :thumbup: Also, he's got a pretty quick L28ET Maxima with fresh coilovers :thumbup: Just needs spacers in the front so he can go lower. _DSC0129 by metalmonkey47, on Flickr _DSC0127 by metalmonkey47, on Flickr
  7. Been thinking about it man, I'll keep you in mind! :rofl: :rofl: Jon that's nuts haha. I wouldn't mind having a shop, but lack of money/experience would keep me out of the business. Plus, I couldn't take those east coast winters :poke: Went with Master_o_turbonics to get some stuff for his truck, and he got me this nice little close ratio ZX 5 speed :thumbup: We cleaned it up, and stuffed it into my truck. The old 4 speed was on it's way out. Lots of input shaft play, and leaking like a sonovabitch. I cleaned it up a bit while he pulled the 4-speed out. Flipped the transmission over, and dumped about a quart of water out followed by some purple mess. :geek: (Royal Purple gear oil I guess?) We flushed it out and it came out pretty clean. Put it back together, and voila! Monkey has overdrive :devil: Althouth, the reverse gear is making a hell of a noise, and popping out of gear, so this one will be rebuilt/replaced soon. (watch for updates to his thread in a few minuets!) _DSC0141 by metalmonkey47, on Flickr The NEW 5 speed, after cleaning it up :thumbup: _DSC0145 by metalmonkey47, on Flickr And the old worn out, leaking 4 speed! _DSC0146 by metalmonkey47, on Flickr
  8. He was rubbing tires on the coilovers :thumbup: Need spacers/rims before the front can sink any lower.
  9. 84 Maxima. Coilovers, L28ET, etc. _DSC0127 by metalmonkey47, on Flickr
  10. ZX 5 speed in! Forward gears, check. REV gear? We don't need backup...

  11. Looks like someone tried to remodel their kitchen, into their Datsun. WTF
  12. I have a buddy with some Recaro's from a Swift GTI that I'm gonna pick up. Always liked the look of stock recaro's
  13. Except the LD20T-II which has two. Assuming the second is for the injection pump. http://nissandiesel.dyndns.org/viewtopic.php?t=1086&sid=11f574d8594f327d302c68b6620462a4
  14. First one is a LD20-T. You can see the words 'Turbo' cast into the top of the intake manifold. I would say after looking at some pics on google.... both are LD20's. Upper is just the turbo'd
  15. Same can be said about a Datsun truck. Different strokes for different folks. :thumbup:
  16. I average about 25 mpg around town in my 620, but I'm really light on the foot. Lately been doing around 20mpg carrying a little extra weight. My old 210 did as good as 40 MPG with a Weber carb, which was amazing.
  17. Depends on what you get. Shouldn't be hard to find a nice set of buckets used for less then $200.
  18. Wow, that is just an awesome piece. Gonna forward this around.
  19. One wheel up on this Z car @ Road Atlanta this past weekend. Lots of cool pics just hit Facebook.
  20. :thumbup: It's okay Jrock, I stopped taking you seriously after the whole drifting thread :ninja: Plus I think you kicked a little sand my direction
