Npdavies. Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 Upload them to Photobucket and post the IMG code here. But $1900 could be an awful price, or a fantastic one. Does it run? rust? etc... 1 Quote Link to comment

dennis Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 wtf is that abomination on the hood? LOL, seriously I think you got a good deal. The interior looks great. now, get rid of that hood scoop. Quote Link to comment
Son_of_a_Datsun_Guy Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 Looks like a great find (hoods are relatively inexpensive.... you know for when you want it to look like a car again :rofl: ) Quote Link to comment
Enrique20 Posted June 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 <h1> yeah man for sure i am gonna get rid of that shit, but then i might have to keep it because i am trying to replace its heart with a chevy 350 small block. or honda s2000 engine <h1> Quote Link to comment

Best bet is the F20C, it has been done before, hell I think the 350 has been done before. I personally would only swap in a Nissan engine, but i like keeping my Cars and engines with the same Manufacturer. I know a few have swapped V6 buicks as well. 1 Quote Link to comment
INDY510 Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 . What's your 3rd engine choice?? ..... :rofl: Quote Link to comment
banzai510(hainz) Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 Looks clean I would just get another hood, wheels and Lower it and call it good. get tired of it sell it for 3500. or Put chevy 350 in with alot of work/time/moeny then get bored and still sell it for 2500 as it too heavy up front then.

I ment to write: why would you need to tow bike ,why not just ride it ..And you can do what ever you want to car but if you were putting a huge motor in a tiny car you should start with more of a beater,,IMO ,Cuz your car ( from the pictures ) looks way nicer than mine ..

MicroMachinery Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 I wouldn't recommend towing with your 510.. it's light, and the unibody will be prone to distortion. I say you should flip it, and sell it to someone that actually wants a Datsun. 1 Quote Link to comment
Son_of_a_Datsun_Guy Posted June 17, 2012 Report Share Posted June 17, 2012 okay, since everybody is pitching their thoughts in on the motor. I wanted a VG for a long time, but unless you are insane, like the guy with the wagon at Canby that made stupid power, a VG won't cut it against an SR or a KA. There is a point where, unless your car is a tube framed behemoth, with something crazy in the rear end to replace the stock stuff, you have just too much power. Because of this, I would stay with a Nissan motor for simplicity... and Nissan motors are sexy. Quote Link to comment
