My New 510 Project....

[Docsis510]

Nice.

[izzo]

thats a very good start, damn man!

[Pacific coast Datsun]

Looks good Jose ! What are the main issues [if any] ? And lemme know if you still need the ignition switch. I can stop by 1 day & hide it under the car ;)

:thumbup:

 

Looks like a very decent start .

[Docsis510]

thanks guys. the car needs carb and clutch work. the carb was rebuild but runs like crap. when i bought the car the owner said it was recently stolen so the ignition was missing. when i got the car home i tried starting it with an ignition i bought from the yard but the starter would turn and the motor wouldnt. i took the starter out and noticed pieces of metal all over the place. so i decided to take the tranny out. when i pulled the tranny everything came out with it. clutch, flywheel, and bolts. the last pic shows how the tranny came out. anyways im thinking of painting the tripes black and putting some 14x7 black rimsss.

So the flywheel bolts were all out already? cause wow ya think ya seen everything than..did the PO happen to tell you what the seats are out of..they are just so sweeeet.

[Docsis510]

so today i decided to work on my front 280zx coilover setup.. im going to use 250lb. ground control coilovers and t-3 camber plates.. let me know what u think....

Must be a l20 motor because the flywheel has 6 bolt holes, the carb probably just needs to be tuned, if the teeth on the fly are in ok shape you can just get it re surfaced pretty cheap hope the tranny and stuff didn't get eaten up to much but over all this car is in WAY better shap than mine is in.

 

Good luck dude

Nice rotors, car looks like a nice start.

[banzai510(hainz)]

amazing how a nice 510 can go bad from a bad owner.

Looks like youll get it going. I hope you get it going.

[Wide14u]

Looks much better. Now you need some rear coil-overs.

You know my opinion on this one!!!

[VintageRice]

Dang, only one page and soooo much progress ! Keep it up coming along great. I like the new wheels. Cut the rear springs for now until you get coilovers at least to level it out.

 

Carbed VG ! !

[Rustina 510]

That L20b motor has alot of potential, those motors can run up to 200hp and they are tough as a iron nails

[banzai510(hainz)]

I think it need a nice garage for it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Docsis510]

i did some work on my 510 today.. i cut the rear springs. looks like i cut one to many coils.

Seriously, though. I really like this thing. Keep up the good work. ;)

Nope, I think that's perfect. (but I don't have to drive it)

In the words of icehouse slam that shit!!!!

[Docsis510]

well i decided to keep my 510 and do a ka24de motor swap. today i started to clear up the engine bay to sand it a paint it. not sure if i want to paint it the same color as the car or just black.
