d.p Posted October 5, 2022 Report Share Posted October 5, 2022 Post a link fucker. Still on the fence what to do with my truck. My buddy still wants to buy it but taking his sweet time. I have been driving it a fair amount and with the amount of rain we have had in the past couple days that fucker loves to spin the tires and track in the rain. Somewhat scary what a little water will do to the steering in it. 1 Quote Link to comment

d.p Posted October 6, 2022 Report Share Posted October 6, 2022 I don't take any of this stuff personally man. Its a forum of people I have never met in person and the only thing we share is an affinity for a 50 year old Japanese pickup truck. 2 Quote Link to comment
d.p Posted October 6, 2022 Report Share Posted October 6, 2022 BTW its $42.25 with shipping. Quote Link to comment

mainer311 Posted October 12, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2022 I guess I never posted, but the truck is done, tested, and I’m ready for Japanese Car Day. I bought a 3/8-24 to 3AN bulkhead kit from Pegasus Racing that includes a steel bracket, which I Tig’d to the diff, and then ran a 24” braided line over to the passenger side. Super easy. 4 Quote Link to comment
mainer311 Posted October 16, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2022 Japanese Car Day was pretty rad this year. Both lawns were packed with cars. And my favorite: “Miss Frizzle” 2 Quote Link to comment
Stoffregen Motorsports Posted October 18, 2022 Report Share Posted October 18, 2022 4cyl z-cars make me wet. Such a great idea. Less weight, CG moved to the rear. Quote Link to comment

There is nothing like a howling L6 with some big sidedrafts on the side of it! Just sounds amazing out on the track! 1 Quote Link to comment
Stoffregen Motorsports Posted October 18, 2022 Report Share Posted October 18, 2022 Yes, you cannot duplicate the sound of a well tuned straight six. Quote Link to comment
demo243 Posted October 18, 2022 Report Share Posted October 18, 2022 With that said I think my next 510 will be a turbo build - if I can find another clean shell for a reasonable sum… SRs are a bit expensive theses days though. Thinking maybe CA18det- lighter, smaller, a bit different… we’ll see… — end thread jack @mainer311bummed I missed Jday! I was away last weekend. I think Paul was there with his blue and white 510. Any others? Might try and hit the Southern NH cars and coffee this Sunday in the 510. 1 Quote Link to comment
mainer311 Posted October 19, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2022 No other Datsun trucks at all besides mine. The replica 510 was there, plus a lot of Z cars. Most of the Nissans that showed up were Silvias and Skylines. 1 Quote Link to comment
