Eagle_Adam Posted April 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 Let me know what else you are looking for. I might have some stuff and might be able to find some for you. Charlie, i will be posting a parts needed list after skib tears into the motor Good to hear you got the turning assembly those seem hard to find it good condition The other option i figured out is to just drop a few drops of super glue into where the arm comes out of the assembly to make it solid ;) If your going to put a 5 speed in it. I think I have a shortened driveline for you guys! Thanx for the offer Doc but its already got a 5 speed in it :D, But I'm curious about what you know about putting audio components in a Dime?

Well, I haven't installed anything in my 510 as of yet. But, I plan to very soon. I have done it all, from making special enclosures, new panels. With special sub floors ( this is what I am going to do with mine). Since I am one person it get done slowly, but you have plenty of time to get all things together! Send me some of your ideas, and I will tell you if I want to do it! most is very easy. Quote Link to comment

Eagle_Adam Posted May 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 Time for a real update: 4dr 510 - check Garage - check tools - check cherry picker borrowed from bub510 - check Motor stand given to nismo dr by skib - check wiring harness removed and labeled - check Motor stripped and ready for extraction with help from skib tomorrow - check SU's and manifold removed thanx to help from skunk and jassifrass - check Being dog tired, filthy, and completely satisfied at the end of the day - PRICELESS and OIC's for proof This is the only unforeseen damage so far: Quote Link to comment

Rustina 510 Posted May 21, 2011 Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 My l16 came out in less that 30 minutes after I prepped to pull it. It is not really that hard, I'm sure skib knows what up. Good luck dude! Hope to see you soon Quote Link to comment
Eagle_Adam Posted May 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 and skib Skib has the rest of the photos im sure he will post them later. Quote Link to comment
Eagle_Adam Posted May 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 If you look at the block its got gold paint, skib had mentioned something about that meaning the block was a replacement from japan. Quote Link to comment
Eagle_Adam Posted May 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 Next up is to strip the engine bay clean and determine which holes stay and which ones go & mount the motor to the stand and tear it down for further inspection. Can anybody tell me what the casters at the front of this ^^^^ car are called or where to get them? Quote Link to comment
