ArchetypeDatsun Posted June 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2017 nah for real.. Anything that you HAVE to not run its front bumper AND flares to look good is a nono to me. If anything it looks the same!.. all that just to give the 510 a scowl? Again.. I dont hate it.. do yo thang shawty.. If its your car and you want to pay $5000 for the front to look like a Hako then go for it. I will say this.. I have seen a Hako WAGON before in real life while I was in Japan.. and I gotta say.. a 510 Wagon LOOKS WAY BETTER stock. You think putting the Hakosuka front end look is gonna cost that much your mistaken. Quote Link to comment

ArchetypeDatsun Posted June 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2017 We have owned Datsuns long enough to not have seen this kinda thing happen sooner or later. I know it's not the same as the 80's but remember those square light conversions? For example in Japan the S13 240sx they did a 240z front conversion kit. My 810 has the ability to change grill and head with bezels and go from round headlights to round headlights with a big change on looks. A Hakosuka and 510 almost the same size besides the Hako being a tiny bit wider and longer there still tiny. The shortnose Hako even shorter. Quote Link to comment

bananahamuck Posted June 27, 2017 Report Share Posted June 27, 2017 How is it different than a 280z dressed out like a Ferrari? Or a pontiac fiero dressed as a Lamborghini.. Or a VW bug with a Rolls Royce nose on it ,, to be "different" . Answer it's not,,,, it's exactly the same . 1 Quote Link to comment
KoHeartsGPA Posted June 27, 2017 Report Share Posted June 27, 2017 I think the key is to make it blend in, those you listed don't do that, nanners :( This blends in nicely... Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted June 28, 2017 Report Share Posted June 28, 2017 So, no KA,no SR, no turbos, no suspension mods nor brake mods? Grafting front ends on, I agree... no. JDM grills or whatever (parking lamps, fender mirrors, dash...) if for the same vehicle is ok. Anything interior, suspension, drive train try to at least keep it Nissan if at all possible.

bananahamuck Posted June 28, 2017 Report Share Posted June 28, 2017 So, no KA,no SR, no turbos, no suspension mods nor brake mods? No L20 swaps even. No ,, not the same at all... Those make the 510 preform to a higher level. The Hakpo nose changes the whole look of the car into something it is not,, WITHOUT any improvement in ,,, well anything other than YOU are to broke ass to afford a real Hako... No more no less Can't afford a real Rolls?? Well do this to your bug and everyone will think you really are related to the Queen.. 1 Quote Link to comment
Mister Vengeance Posted June 28, 2017 Report Share Posted June 28, 2017 You think putting the Hakosuka front end look is gonna cost that much your mistaken. I literally just freestyled that price man.. I have no idea what it will cost financially.. but I know what it will cost cosmetically. dawgs it looks OK.. but I am just saying my honest opinion that I just dont really see why.. Go fuckin do it.. just know if you roll past me that thats what I think.. and it DOESNT matter.. but thats what I think. I just dont think cost to return equals out.. 1 Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted June 28, 2017 Report Share Posted June 28, 2017 Paying to look like a tool????.... priceless. 2 Quote Link to comment
bananahamuck Posted June 28, 2017 Report Share Posted June 28, 2017 You can't tell me when those guys that pull in with those noses aren't laughed at behind their backs by guys with "real" Hakos ,,,, yeah the first couple were cool but ,,,,,,, after that it's just disco music Quote Link to comment
racerx Posted June 28, 2017 Report Share Posted June 28, 2017 I say let them do whatever they want. Its their money, headaches, time, resources and vehicle. Why should I be concerned with what they install in their car? I got enough enough shit I got to deal with. 1 Quote Link to comment

Mister Vengeance Posted June 28, 2017 Report Share Posted June 28, 2017 Let the record show that I am talking about the dudes who make the conversion.. not the guy who chooses to become a "I cant afford a hako so ill maim my 510" 1 Quote Link to comment
505plus5 Posted June 28, 2017 Report Share Posted June 28, 2017 All I know is that I wanna be the first one to put modern Lada 1600, 1 piece combo heads lights & blinkers, on a 510! 3 Quote Link to comment
