banzai510(hainz) Posted June 5, 2016 Report Share Posted June 5, 2016 those don't look like Nissan bolts. looks to coarse 1 Quote Link to comment
Datsunthug Posted June 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 I bought some new ones. No more leak :) the ones that were on it were 7/16 heads I have a small punch list of things to do. If I can get off early enough this week I'm going to dmv to get it legal and add it to my insurance policy. I'm up to 5 vehicles so hopefully it doesn't add much to my bill. Anyone in NorCal going to any meets? 1 Quote Link to comment

Datsunthug Posted June 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2016 My starter is acting up. I have an old thrashed one. And one off a 74 Z. The Z starter came off my friends 260 that he's almost done with an LS swap. Will this fit in my truck until I have the original rebuilt? 1 Quote Link to comment
banzai510(hainz) Posted June 13, 2016 Report Share Posted June 13, 2016 yes they should swap. But really they not that much money at O Rileys How is it acting up? Clean contacks 1 Quote Link to comment
Datsunthug Posted June 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2016 ill try cleaning it. Thanks. 1 Quote Link to comment
Datsunthug Posted June 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2016 The starter solenoid would just keep clicking. If I tapped it with the dead blow hammer I could get it to start. But that is ghetto 1 Quote Link to comment
banzai510(hainz) Posted June 13, 2016 Report Share Posted June 13, 2016 swap the other starter in and if still does it say with in a week then the key switch is dragging the voltage down. no giving the full voltage needed to push the selinoid all the way in This happen to my 521 also. I added a Ford seliniod relay but a blk light box ones works also if need it/ 1 Quote Link to comment
Datsunthug Posted June 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2016 New starter might be cheap, but I'm cheaper. To quote you (Hainz) from your rebuild video "Datsun guys are like 50 bucks , that's way over budget." Haha 1 Quote Link to comment
banzai510(hainz) Posted June 13, 2016 Report Share Posted June 13, 2016 there was a guy who got a timming chain out of a junk yard. That Mofo was cheap!!!!!! 2 Quote Link to comment
Datsunthug Posted June 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2016 Yeah that's pretty bad! I'm going to get the original one rebuilt at Motor Electrci in grass valley. They rebuild Alts, starters generators. For now I'll try the Z starter. Im already wanting to start gathering parts for a KA swap down the road. I'm addicted. HELP 1 Quote Link to comment

DanielC Posted June 15, 2016 Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 The high beam lights on a Datsun 521 are turned on by pushing the turn signal stalk forward. Does the light switch stay turned to the right position? That was used for turning on optional fog lights. 1 Quote Link to comment
Datsunthug Posted June 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 Oh. Right on Daniel. I feel like a dumb ass!?! The light switch will not push all the way back in when turned to the right. My brights works. I'm just not very bright. Haha 1 Quote Link to comment
Datsunthug Posted June 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 Oh by the way put the 260z starter in. Starts like a champ. 1 Quote Link to comment

Datsunthug Posted June 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 Yum mickeys. Does anyone know if the driver and passenger side door glass is interchangeable 1 Quote Link to comment
Datsunthug Posted June 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 My truck has plexiglass on passenger side There's a complete drivers door for sale where I live. Same color complete but it's the drivers. My driver door has a couple pin holes at the bottom. Just wondering if it's worth picking up 1 Quote Link to comment
