I think 2 tones in U.S were 1980&81 only. who knows. http://www.xenons130.com/colorchart.html Quote Link to comment
ClassicDatsun Posted September 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 so ive been driving the car around and i just cant get enough of the way people turn to look at a crappy dirty primer Datsun hahah. all my friends tell me its a badass lil car, and i cant help but think to myself "if only they knew all the things wrong with it..." the fuel injection problem is still there and now my master clutch cylinder is leaking. oh well, ive asked around and most mechanics tell me that i need the oem fuel pump to solve my problem but $300-500 doesn't have a nice ring to it. the master cylinder on the other hand will probably be taken out sometime this week for inspection and debate: rebuild or new. if anyone can please help me out with the fuel problem id be really grateful. its really starting to drive me nuts. thanx Quote Link to comment

ClassicDatsun Posted September 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2013 So these things were on my car and I took them off Before After What are they? Quote Link to comment
72240z Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 They are what they appear to be, they space out the spring a little more and some make it a little stiffer. They make them in rubber too. Vatozone special... Quote Link to comment
ClassicDatsun Posted September 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 so is it good that i took them off? Quote Link to comment
Ryoskatekov Posted October 7, 2013 Report Share Posted October 7, 2013 so is it good that i took them off? Yes, and No.... Yes: spring compressor/lifters can damage spring rate and change the ride quality. Sometimes It might unpredictably break off. No: Your spring rate or struts were previously fucked and someone put that to prevent it from bottoming out or scrape wheels. Quote Link to comment
ClassicDatsun Posted October 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2013 well the wheels dont scrape or bottom out so... :D Quote Link to comment

Spoona_Jay21 Posted October 26, 2013 Report Share Posted October 26, 2013 looks good! but... why did you take off the spoiler.... Quote Link to comment
Ryoskatekov Posted October 26, 2013 Report Share Posted October 26, 2013 Nice I like it. Since your car is all primer and Won't have to give a shit about Body work, why not take the time to get some krylon paint and Do like a American / Japanese bomber scheme That you wanted to do? 1 Quote Link to comment
ClassicDatsun Posted October 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2013 looks good! but... why did you take off the spoiler.... the original hatch came with a huge dent that bent the locking mechanism so i took it off and got a different hatch and i kinda never liked the spoiler Nice I like it. Since your car is all primer and Won't have to give a shit about Body work, why not take the time to get some krylon paint and Do like a American / Japanese bomber scheme That you wanted to do? ive been waiting to get different bumpers and spoiler so i can do just that Quote Link to comment
PrimeLuxeZ Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 Loving it so far. I wish mine was as straight as yours. Shits just rusting more were its parked. Quote Link to comment
ClassicDatsun Posted October 31, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 the reason for the car being so "straight" is because the previous owner slapped a ton of bondo and fiberglass on then put on the body kit to hide it all Quote Link to comment
