DARIN 510 Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 how about some chassis pics? front and rear. there is no practicality for this car, but it looks so fucking sick. Quote Link to comment
Farmer Joe Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 geezus... i... i dont know.. what to say.. i love it... and the fuck is all this practicality shit? seem practical to me... does it go from one place to another? thats all it'd need it to do in my book... 1 Quote Link to comment

69FJWagon Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 I agree with Darrin the car looks so fucking sick but... this isnt practical, pretty sure he didnt spend the time to fix any of the suspension geometry he said he cant go over any speedbumps and it takes off city tittys when changing lanes its all cool but this isnt a perfect world with perfect roads... it just beats the shit out of a car when its that low and nothing has been fixed within the suspension it cant have much travel so yes riding around on bump stops just doesnt seem practical id much rather have a bit of suspension travel and a firm planted feeling 510 than something that just looks cool...and it does look cool :cool: my .02 cents Clayton Quote Link to comment
hellamikey Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 Why even bother with suspension? just weld in some bar-stock. Quote Link to comment

jun Posted January 15, 2011 Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 One of the sickest 510's ever. Lovin' it! Something so mad about dailying a car that low without airbags. Quote Link to comment
Everat Posted January 15, 2011 Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 Definitely cool looking but he couldnt even drive anywhere in my neighborhood. Id be really scared to ride in this thing through seattle, with the big hills and big potholes. Quote Link to comment
ptown green Posted January 15, 2011 Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 Dude your car looks so good in that pic! I'm making mine sit the same way as your front end looks but all the way around but on 15's. In other words without the cambered out rear. How wide are you wheels? did you use spacers? I'm gonna stretch too. I noticed the lip on the inside of the fender too that I'm gonna cut off Quote Link to comment

Id be really scared to ride in this thing through seattle, with the big hills and big potholes. i drive in seattle all the time, its not that bad. drove it to the seahawks game couple weekends ago=] just have to pick which potholes i know i can crawl over and which ones will eat my car. the reason why i have the welded diff's because i used to get stuck on speedbumps and hills with the stock diff, i dont get stuck with both wheels spinnin. i hate welded diffs tho :angry: Quote Link to comment
The Dat-side Posted January 15, 2011 Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 Thanks for the pics. It's a look don't touch thing for me. Looks badass but I'd never be able to do it. Quote Link to comment
CorAce Posted January 15, 2011 Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 I'm willing to bet your having traction issues because you only have a mountain bikes tire width of rubber touching the road in the back. try slotting the rear cross member to pull some of your extreme camber out and an open diff might work better. I dig your look though, it take a lot of nuts to push the limits like that. I think some of us old men have forgotten what its like to be 19 and not feel any pain. You may consider skid plates under some of your more vital parts as well (man hole rings don't give). Quote Link to comment
banzai510(hainz) Posted January 15, 2011 Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 why i have the welded diff's because i used to get stuck on speedbumps and hills with the stock diff, i dont get stuck with both wheels spinnin. i hate welded diffs tho Why didnt you say so!!!!!!!!!! be cool if they had a like a Eaton Locker for R160s and R180s matter of fact for everything. Under 20mph one wheel spins it rachets the other wheel IN. Looks Gangsta to me ass Icehouse Says. Camber looks cool plus do better burn outs in front of the Honda guys. They dont think about how Ez it is to burn out since YOU are only using half the tire.But you can always buy cambered tires if you need more traction http://cambertire.com/ This car is a Ratsun but I bet you get alot of thumbs up and looks Quote Link to comment
WAGON JON Posted January 15, 2011 Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 If you want to sell the wheels, look me up. Quote Link to comment

"The Dat-side", no problem man! Quote Link to comment
SIXTY-NINE-DIME Posted January 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 If you want to sell the wheels, look me up. aww man i just sold my old slots! well traded for a t25 for the future turbo set-up! (coming in the summer) the wheels were garbage any ways. they were staggered offset on 13/5.5's with one wheel missing 2 inserts. 1 was actually missing when i had them on my car Quote Link to comment
