I too hope that when I decided to build another car it'll be everything I want it to be. Just need to be totally committed and in the right frame of mind. Realistically, I shouldn't have responded but that struck a cord with me last night. Sorry for any harsh vibes - I understand where you're coming from. We'll just chock the part-out down to personal reasons and leave it at that.

I'm certainly a strange individual, but worked hard for every dollar spent in this build. I've learned so much with the countless hours spent slaving on this car, but in the end, this car just wasn't for me. I wish I would have had the planning ability I have now when I first began the project, as I'm sure the outcome would have been well worth my time spent. I don't know if you were expecting a response, or just looking to talk some shit, but to make a statement like that without knowing a single thing that goes on outside of this build thread is pretty ignorant.

As some of you might of seen over in my build thread, I finally decided to part out my build of two years. There's plenty of shit to be had, so I'm probably going to be doing this in multiple posts. It will be possible for me to ship things, but please don't inquire about shipping unless you're genuinely willing to purchase the item. All of this stuff will be shipping from Ontario, Canada - so please be sensible about asking me to ship things, i.e. heavy stuff isn't going to be terribly cheap. You will be responsible for PayPal fees if I'm shipping, and please send the payment in CANADIAN FUNDS. Thanks.

"Datsunami" 510 SR23DET S14 Build.... SR-TITTY-THREE!
Rustbucket replied to SR20DETdatsun510's topic in Project Datto
From my understanding of fuel systems, you're pretty well bang on. The only other thing I might suggest, after having looked at the fuel system in a friends F20C Corolla the other day - is that you're going to need a pre-filter to save your pumps. I was previously unaware of this, but there's a high particulate pre-filter that runs in line before your pumps, and then a lower particulate filter that would be in line to your rail. If you've already got them, then disregard this - but I was unaware and had built the fueling for my Z without a prefilter, which likely would have been detrimental to my pump. -
Wheels are gone already, and I started compiling pictures for a part-out thread. Will update soon, I swear!

Nitrous equipped track monster.

Part out thread will probably be tomorrow night's project!

Won't be a few years until I dip in to anything but my daily, but when I do - it'll be a meticulously thought-out K20 EG Hatch.

Certainly not a phase or hiccup this time. This car will never be anything I want my name attached to, and I've taken the whole thing a lesson learned. Perhaps my only regret would have been starting the project in the first place, but I've learned so much along the way that it would be a silly statement to make. I now know precisely how to go about my next build, and when that time comes I'll be well equipped and prepared.

I guess this is a good a place as any to pose the question; anybody want to continue a little project I started two years ago? The shell is pretty much worthless, but there's plenty of goodies to go along with it. I'm gonna work on a part-out thread in the next couple days, but I figured I'd put the offer out there in case anyone was interested. If you've ever seen anything in the thread and thought - "HEY! I REALLY WANT THAT!". Well, now's your time to get it! Send me a PM, or post in here. I'll be checking back at least once daily. Wheels are up on Zilvia if y'all are interested! http://zilvia.net/f/wheels-tires/499684-brand-new-rs-watanabe-type-r-15x10j-25-15x9-5j-29-4x114-3-full-set-tires.html
