Hi all, I guess to start off Ill just post pics and some background on my datsun. The first pic is the day I found it :D.

I had wanted a 510 for a long time and actually had just somewhat finished a 1990 eagle talon awd that I got on trade for a bike I had. keeping it short the talon needed lotsa work i got it running but it had bigger injectors and lotsa aftermarket goodies and I didnt know how to tune it and was having a little trouble figguring it out. I had heard of a guy in town that had a small shop and was really smart with cars in general and did lots of tunning styly racing ecus and mods so i went looking for him. He came by we got it running great and he said he liked it, i laughed and said yea I like it but I would trade it anyday for a 510 datsun. He laughed and said he had a datsun 510 and I responded that i would trade him sight unseen. lol.. He took me by to check it out and see what i thought and i fell in love instanly, so i ask him again if he would like to trade. He tossed it around for a week ( which felt like 10 years ) and decided he would trade and throw in parts and free labor to even it out seeing as it was a bare shell. From there i basicly just went with the vision of a legit track car that if i wanted to i could legaly drive on the streets. Ill keep to the pics, ps the cake is for my 25th birthday my girlfriend got it for me at a cakery she used to work at, i posted it on ratsun facebook but.. lol
