sick620 Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Got me a running Driving 521 for $350... Alot of the build is top secret ;) But As the progress happens down the road you should be able to guess what Im trying to accomplish... Got me a parts truck for $150 as well.... oics.. night a purchased it.... Gave it a good bath a few days ago, been driving it everywhere... today I pulled some parts off the parts truck for it... put a ratsun and datsun mini truckin sticker on it ;) put on the 2 nice sun visors off the parts truck.. this one had one nasty one that would fall down all the time while driving and one was missin now I got 2 nice ones :) somebody jb welded the holes for the hood emblem so I knocked em out with the drill and put an emblem on it... 1 Quote Link to comment

jesusno2 Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Id almost put money on that some of those door pulls are from the rear doors on a 510 wagon. Or they just changed em through out the years. Quote Link to comment

sick620 Posted March 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 well my slave cylinder was looking pretty nasty, and as I was driving it it would give me a little feedback as I put it into gear... So I got a 620 slave cylinder because 521 ones are obsolete at all the parts stores and nissan couldnt even find me one... look how gross that is... gross huh? well i got this badboy in there... datsun club buddy came over and we adjusted the valves... they were ticking a little at idle... some people told me it was a rod knock... the valve adjustment corrected my problem totally... all of em were a little loose, 3 of them were really loose, and 1 was really tight <_< after the adjustment I test drove it... Let me tell ya the performance I gained was AWESOME, I never would of guessed it could move like that! CRAZY!!! oh and it has HIGH compression! YAY!!! chris.... Seven10 on here.. ;) haha fliped the air cleaner lid! probably gained like 50 horses! haha i do it to all my dattos before i get a weber :) 1 Quote Link to comment
