HRH Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 I'm sure you've all seen the new "rice" trend. It's domestic diesels. Namely Dodge Cummins. And I'm sure you've seen many a jacked up 4x4 Dodge Diesel spewing loads of black smoke racing around whatever town you may be in..... HAVE I MENTIONED it's just so absolutely funny when a shitbox looking 510 pulls around from behind, is even in 2nd, and passes them in third with a motor designed in the 60's and fuel management (dual SUs) from that era also? Long live the L motor. Gave 'em the 2 fingers and a 0 so they'd know they just got stomped by a motor 1/3 the size without a turbo. :) I'm also going to put a sticker on my back window that reads: "Black smoke=unburnt fuel. Tune your rig correctly." Quote Link to comment
lynchfourtwenty Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 on another note, they're built for pulling an hauling stuff around, prolly weigh 3 times as much as your car if not more.. but still.. kudos i bet they felt real silly Quote Link to comment
Guest DatsuNoob Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 Before my truck entered into garaged hybernation, I used to love pulling up to dudes in jacked up diesel trucks complete with hanging rubber testes and all and giving them the thumbs down while I pulled on them off the line. I never understood the reason behind certain men needing to own big trucks. You get into them and instantly feel dwarved. I tell you, I feel like a Goliath of a man getting into the cozy little cab of my 620, and I didnt spend $30,000+ in a feeble attempt to reinforce my self-esteem or masculinity. Quote Link to comment
lynchfourtwenty Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 i here ya, i've pulled on many a people.. all kinds of shit.. i need to get my clutch fixed now tho.. i tell ya man my truck is quick.. i think im going to get some new plugs tho cause i think my iridums are gettin old... well atleast i've had loads of fun an its cheap too.. i swear i think im gonna blow this engine one day.. im suprised i havent spun a fuckin rod bearing.. i've over revved this thing more times then i can remember.. did it on my se-r a few too many times an boom spun rod bearing.. granted that engines seen alot of abuse an its got 225k an its the origional motor from 92.. point is datsuns are fucking tuff.. you gotta seriously be an idiot, or just dont care to blow one up..

Phlebmaster Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 What have I passed lately?......... I am not sure, but I think it was something like that. lol :lol: Quote Link to comment
HRH Posted September 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 Yeah, I went out to the drags that same night, didn't find those guys there, but did find some gigantic diesel quad cab pickups (Ford and Dodge) who were exceedingly quick. Funny enough, no clouds of black smoke from them. :) Seriously they were probably running 12s. And the trucks looked stock. At least there are some who can tune diesels correctly.

hang_510 Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 i passed everybody yesterday, including a cop :eek: almost shit my pants, luckily i just farted :blink: Quote Link to comment
Z-train Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 It's funny you guys laughing at trucks that run times your 510 can only equal after being dropped off a cliff.:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol: Quote Link to comment

Pretty impressive, and faster than a gigantic truck falling off a cliff. I couldn't find any Youtube videos of that particular green car, (it was a while ago) but I did find this of an 11 sec 510, proving once again that Datsuns are superior. :D Quote Link to comment

Dudeman Posted September 4, 2008 Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 Gale Banks built a 735 horse Cummins Dakota for a land speed record in 2002. He drove it from Southern California to Bonneville Utah while towing a trailer full of spare parts and got close to 20 to the gallon, and then proceeded to average 217 mph, with an overall top speed of 222, a record for gas or diesel pickups. I love Datsuns, but i don't think a 620 could do that. :) Quote Link to comment

I love Datsuns, but i don't think a 620 could do that. :) I thought the top speed was 125.But anyways,you are correct.He put the Cummins in a Dakota for that.And that Cummins Dakota holds the record for the Worlds fastest Pick-up truck. Now the above mentioned cars that are running 10s are ALL under 2500lbs.The RAM that is running 10's is doing it while weighing 6000 lbs+ and having the aerodynamics of a brick. For every 100 pounds you shed off a car,you gain approx.1/10 of a second.So if the Ram weighed 2500 lbs-how much faster would it be? I'm sure ya'll have calculators.:lol: Quote Link to comment

I love Datsuns, but i don't think a 620 could do that. :) Hmmmm, I sense a challenge! I'd love to see a 620 do 223 mph. I think a lowered 620 would have as good drag coefficient or better than a dakota, wouldn't it? But then the windshield rake, hmmm. Question is, what kind of motor would be needed to do that? It would have to have close to what, 600-700 hp? Think a Titan V8 could get that with some boost? Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted September 4, 2008 Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 He would knock 3 1/2 seconds off his time. Quote Link to comment
hang_510 Posted September 4, 2008 Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 He would knock 3 1/2 seconds off his time. thats pretty truckin fast! ... having the aerodynamics of a brick. and a 510 doesnt??? :lol: Quote Link to comment
Datsun720 Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 i beat a ford f-250 with my 720 at the track, he had a hypertech chip.intake and exhaust upgrades, running 15 flat in the 1/4 mile. I let my bro run my 720 later that night against a ford ranger with a 302 V8,he beat the ranger everytime, dude was pissd to lose to a datsun lolz Quote Link to comment
Nissan_Boy85 Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 There is this one diesel Dodge Ram running around Vancouver that is lifted ungodly high. I mean I pass this thing and my 720 isn't even as tall as the tires. Remove the needed drive components and I could park under him, and I'm not talkin the bed, I mean I could park with the cab under his truck. I'm sure Kiz and others around me have seen it. If I see it again, I'll try to get a pic. Quote Link to comment
