510T Posted November 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 Meh, I think I will save the wheel changeover till after the fun run this weekend. I got em all dipped and ready though... That and I'm waiting for an early X-mas present straight outta Japan ;) My plan is to install the wheels, CorAce GL grill, new fake inner headlights I've been working on, and my Japanese present all at once. It should be a good makeover. 1 Quote Link to comment

510T Posted December 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 Bye bye mirror: Easy peezy popped it on: It is nice to finally be rid of the red and orange window frames. :D Next update will be the front end... 5 Quote Link to comment
Son_of_a_Datsun_Guy Posted December 12, 2013 Report Share Posted December 12, 2013 Window frames look good blacked out, need to do it to mine. Do you have plans for a different mirror set up or are you just going to run a wink or something? 1 Quote Link to comment
510T Posted December 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2013 Window frames look good blacked out, need to do it to mine. Do you have plans for a different mirror set up or are you just going to run a wink or something? Thanks! While I am personally OK just having the wink, (I drove it with the wink alone for almost a year) I do have other plans to satisfy Johnny Law. I will be biting the style of one of my favorite 510s and running on Australian Falcon XYGT mirrors. I got the idea from Anth's car: http://community.ratsun.net/topic/15189-anths-69-510-fj20et-from-aus/page-6 That is the plan, but I might go without for a while because those suckers aren't cheap.

510T Posted December 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 No update just a burnout video. My cool friend filmed in portrait :confused: and still has a junk phone lol.

banzai510(hainz) Posted December 16, 2013 Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 Hey ever post that R180 vid? PS Im going to be honest here. Im not digging those wheels You need some 3pc wheels for that car. 1 Quote Link to comment
510T Posted December 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 I haven't Hainz sorry... Still need the software to upload them, I'm not very good at that stuff. My buddy said he could help me but it's not done yet. I for sure would love to have some real nice wheels but haven't found the right used set and a new set of custom Work Meister S1 is pricey.

510T Posted January 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 No real work done but I did buy more parts :D Refresh 60 flare mockup: Obata-San included some cool photos with the flares: I'm trying to decide on some new wheels and have figured I need something close to a 15x9 et-15 ish to fill the flares up. Planning on running a set of 225/45 BFG Rivals. I would run the rears at an effective -25 with a spacer. Unfortunately I cannot justify spending 2k+ on authentic Japanese wheels so it looks like I'll be reppin reps again :crying:. Right now trying to decide between Rota RKR, Rota Kyusha, Atara Wats, steelies, or ??? Let me know if you have any suggestions or come across something good for me!!! Quote Link to comment
demo243 Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 You got me interested in flares lol so i did some quick searching. Im sure you seen this, but looks like this guy was doing something similar http://www.the510realm.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=11313&start=45 1 Quote Link to comment
510T Posted January 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 Those are the same rear flares but I will be mounting them right up at the body line and cutting / tubbing much more of the body to facilitate the low and wide :) I would like to go down another inch in the back and maybe a bit moar in front too.

Busta Nut Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 I can't say I'm excited to see this.............never been fond of cutting into a clean Dime....... .................but I trust you.... 2 Quote Link to comment
510T Posted January 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 Eh... It's not that clean... :thumbup: I may try to source a different set of front fenders, maybe fiberglass, haven't decided yet. Quote Link to comment
Busta Nut Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 That would be a good thing to consider...........those fenders are worth a fortune............ 1 Quote Link to comment
