CraigMicheals Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 I have a 1981 Datsun 510 Wagon I've seen and ready many project treads, so i figured i start me own. Ive seen and heard of very few Drift wagons, so Im really exited to start my own. So Welcome, and hope y'all enjoy this as much a I do. Quote Link to comment

CraigMicheals Posted August 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 Once i get the tubing I'm hoping to do a dual cold air intake for right now, till I can do some more upgrades. just not sure what to do next other than lower it and wheels.. what air filter are you taking about? Yeah what's up with that dual thing? Have fun.That's the oddest air filter I've seen. Quote Link to comment
CraigMicheals Posted August 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 oh oddest not oldest.. my bad. lol Quote Link to comment
hobospyder Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 yeah i was talking about the dual cone thingie on top, figured it was air intake filter set up but it made no sense to me Quote Link to comment
CraigMicheals Posted August 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 well its for dual intake, i just don't have the right size piping for it, nor can i get it to run smoothly.. so i took it off just put the stock stuff back on. ill figure something out, probably put a air cleaner on. I've heard they're better anyways. lol yeah i was talking about the dual cone thingie on top, figured it was air intake filter set up but it made no sense to me Quote Link to comment
hobospyder Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 I would offer the stock intake that came off of my 620 but I don't know if it'll fit Quote Link to comment
CraigMicheals Posted August 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 i don't know if it would or not, is it a top intake? if that makes any since.. lol I would offer the stock intake that came off of my 620 but I don't know if it'll fit Quote Link to comment

CraigMicheals Posted August 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 it was on top yes... hmmmmm.... picture: best one i have on hand sorry i checked out your project page, love the truck! looks good. i see what you're talking about with your intake.. i want to put an after market filter on there, like an air cleaner.. but, I'm not sure how to do so, how did you install yours? with the breathers, and such. lol Quote Link to comment
Just Joel Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 No way you'll ever need that much available air in front of that tiny carb... Just sayin ;) Quote Link to comment
hobospyder Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 I just put a Weber carb on and the filter that came with it. I barely know what I'm talking about when it comes to engines and only know mine from experience. Wouldn't even really call my thread a project page, was just introducing myself and the truck and I should probably actually update it i checked out your project page, love the truck! looks good. i see what you're talking about with your intake.. i want to put an after market filter on there, like an air cleaner.. but, I'm not sure how to do so, how did you install yours? with the breathers, and such. lol Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 I am sorry to be that guy, but it's a compulsion... :rofl: Your car isn't actually a wagon, it is a "5 door hatchback" (Nissan's name for it, not mine). This is the A10 wagon... Quote Link to comment
Just Joel Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 lol... "5 door hatch back drift car" isn't nearly as catchy :p 2 Quote Link to comment
