  • my favourite bit was 0.52

  • its just a dyno figure. there are ways of verifying the horsepower with a few road tests... you need to know the exact weight of the car and have a straight, level, low-altitude road to test on. jacobs sells the book but i can't remember the name. you'll prolly end up with a real world figure that may disapoint you, (i did) but its reality....

  • MrEasyCash: what does 'the usual triples' mean?? if you have managed to come up with a triple carb setup for a 4-cylinder motor, why don't you share it with the rest of us? a gearhead you're not.

  • imakeithappen510: so you have a stock L18 and you bored it 2 millimeters and now it makes 240hp?? U R SOOOOO FULL OF SHIT!!. a Z22 crank or rods won't even fit in an L18 block....so what is it you have thats Z22 besides the pistons/rings?? MANY love 510s but FEW know what the fuck they are talking about....

  • wow, i did a viscous LSD R200 (3.700) for a friend's '73 510 and the whole upgrade cost about 700 including diff, new U-joints, materials, and the special lube nissan sells. this was about 10 years ago. he has a former NPTI VG30 in there and the rear-end has held up fine so far. next project sedan has an open R180 4.111 diff in it. needs an LSD and the hitachi nissan ones are r-e-a-l pricey....but don't feel like experimenting. cha-ching!

  • I'm loving your car. Nice work

  • MINT DATTO!

  • god daamn thats sounds is just lovely!!

  • im in love

  • what transmission is in it?

  • I'm an American Muscle Car type of guy..that being said, I like what you have done to your Datsun..........Good Job, should be pretty quick. Have you taken it to the track yet?

  • Sweet !!! Just Sweet !!

  • love the sound of her spooling

  • perfect 10

  • sick car man. i am picking up my first 510. i was looking around to see different mods.. i very much like this one.

  • dude ur kar is SIK...very nice...hating on da rims....

  • sweet

  • I had nefver seen this model before. It surprised me because it looks and even sounds as a mixture of Fiat 132 and Fiat 125. Looks well.

  • fukn sic car! did you flare the guards on it?

  • nice 510. perfect amount of power for that chassis. It will be capable of all types of motorsports. Post some vids of you throwin that thing around a track .good job

  • 293 thats all hmmmm weird

  • @hottuner

    That's all?!?! I'm not sure you realise just how light the 510 is.

  • @odd1sh I think he was more just referring to the fact that the motor should be making more than that. That is more than enough power for the Car for sure, but not that much for an SR20DET motor in general. Still, its an awesome car.

  • Nice man...so it's probably making around 340ish or so??

  • nice car dude

  • I want this jet !!!!!!!!!!!! 

  • what year?

  • @ihateskaterhaters1

    that model would be around 1970

  • Not enough. MORE POWER!

  • thats cool i have a stock l18 bored out to a 2.2 running 240hp..... you should put smaller weels.. datsuns beg to go fast thats why i have one love the feeling of driving iht.

  • Is there a site that has info on a swap for one of these cars?

  • That car is not bad looking but its not original

  • thats what i want right there.

  • you cant go wrong with nissan/Datsun

  • Can anyone tell me what wheels they are? they look like watanabe extreme? but im not sure they fuckin awesome.

  • thats so sick man. I would love to pick one of those things up. bad ass ride

  • I had 1 of these many years ago for gravel runs,, no turbos them days, just the usal triples ect,, was hell fun.. :) Awsome car , Keep Crqanking..

  • after i watched this video your chance of loosing you Datsun is BIG LOL i want that

  • A 510 barely weighs 2000 lbs. 293 RWP in that car...scary fast.

    I had a '71 2-door w/ a built 1800 SSS & 260z 5-speed. We got an estimated 175hp out of it and that was not RWP like this car. My car was damn quick due to it light weight. I could only imagine what almost twice the brake HP would be like. The power to weight ratio must be insane. Good job on your car. Hope you have a lot of money saved up for rear tires.

  • i love the way you fixed this 510 up.

    it's exactly the way i want mine to be if i ever get one.

  • hey silly question do you have to smog that car?

  • @skil1977 no, sir. it's pre-1974. everything before then is smog exempt. THANK GOD. lol

  • chulada  ve nomas

  • I want your Datsun

  • it would be really fast given the weight

    even though it isnt a "huge" number

    it would probably smoke most larger cars with 50-80 more whp

    nice car

  • uhh...good job ,for datsun p510

  • nice!

  • Hey what brand wheels are those and size too. They would look great on my 240z. Great looking 510, must have taken you a while to get it that nice.

  • that´s a cool car

  • sound great

  • That car sounds amazing. Once it gets really going it kinda of sounds like a jet, it's smooth and loud at the same time. Very nice.

  • Nice car. What rims are those?

  • great job, beautiful car

  • sexy beast O.O

  • thats beautifil!!!

  • god damn .. we used to av that car when i was a kid lol .. not as cool tho .. awsome job man ;)

  • 510・・・美しい!beautiful!

  • howd u get good guards man!

  • 4door to 2door conversion?

  • you do the swap yourself?

  • The car is badass!!! And those rims are SICK!!!

  • @mystang115 they're called watanabes my good man.

  • i bet that car is FUN to drive.... sweet.

  • about how much did u get the sr20 for? im either goin to get a sr20 or another vg30 like my old 510.

  • dude aren't cv's in a front wheel drive car?

  • If the car has an independent rear suspension and is rwd then it has cv joints

  • not for this car. It had independent suspension, so the differential is fixed to the frame and Constant Velocity joints go to the wheels.

  • original diffs hace universals not CVs but would be nice

  • How are your cv's holding up?

  • omfg sexy ass 510....

  • sorry commented on the wrong video below.

    sick ride.

  • This must be on the down hill track.

  • Cant wait to finish mine. I got a lz 2.2 under the hood right now. Was my first car, now she sits in the shop getting only pulled out for the summer months lol. Ill never get rid of her, and once the motor goes im getting my sr :)

  • were should i look to find a cheap 2 door datsun 510?

  • haha umm well mine looked like complete shit when I bought it and I paid $2,500 for it. I'm on the east coast though, they are hard to come by around here. Heard they were a little cheaper on the west coast, but I don't think you're going to find one really "cheap". Craigslist usually has a few though.

  • The wheels are Rota RB-R 17 x 8.5 +4 offset and i have 1" adapters all the way around. I have 16" Rotas on the front now. I will post more videos soon

  • Those lips make them look like 18's.. looks good..

  • sell me the car

  • @SteveSullivan i had those same rims on my e30 bmw pretty much the 510 look alike but mine where gunmetal

  • Transmission is the stocker from the S13 the swap came with, and it is put down through the 2008 Subaru STi r180 rear diff.

  • Hey man nice car. I'm in the middle of a SR20 swap into my 72' 510. It's gonna look A LOT like your's when it's done. I had to put flares on it because someone cut the rears off. My engine bay is black. I've got a S13 Redtop. And I'm planning on painting it pepper white, the mini cooper color. Really nice car you have. Could you tell me the wheel size? I'm wanting something that will fill out my fenders good.

  • nice 510 brett, we just put s13 rear subframe in my 72 4 door, ka-t hopefully shall see 9 sec 1/4 with z32 diff and tranny :D

    i want ur rimz @_@

    Dave ( Z U L8R )

  • Thats a manly car right there. Whats your transmission setup?

  • There are more videos of the car in my channel.

    It is running 18-19 psi max.

    Thanks for the comments :)

  • What turbo, Steve? did you change the cam?

  • really nice car

  • your car is dope... love the exhaust sound

  • Thanks for your comments.

    Take care

    Brett

  • The set up cost me about $2500.00 + many many many hours of testing different things that could work. The diff is from a 2008 STi 3.54 ratio. The inner axle joints are from a 2004 STi and outer joints are from a WRX. I had modified the outer joints and welded the old Datsun axle flange to it. The axle shafts are chromoly and made from scratch with the specs i sent them. After blowing up many WRX diffs and axles i settled with this setup which has been bullet proof so far ( knock on wood )

  • 17 x 8.5 Rota RB-R's with 255 40's all the way around. I am going to change to 16 x 8 for the front so i can increase my steering angle and not have to worry about rubbing. The rears i am going to send out to have widened to 10.5 and will be running 295 or 315 rears.

  • btw, how much was it to do your axels? and where? i been looking everywhere for an sti diff axel. post more clips too! we want more.lol

  • man your dime is way clean!! i usually dont like rims bigger than 15" but yours is diffrent. whats the size of those wheels?

  • what did you do for the front crossmember, and engine mounts? any certain kit you went with and why?

  • that is some sick 510 man

  • Thanks :)

  • Nice dime man. I have to own one one day.

  • Retrofitted STi axles with Chromoly shafts

    Advanced Designs Coilover suspension

    The wheels are Rota RB-R's 17 x 8.5 +4 and the tires are Federal 595RS 255 40 17. I also have some 1" wheel spacers to get the offset more aggressive.
