last month, I turned 17! so that's what got me new suspension parts. While, I was putting on some headers, I saw a cracked bolt in the block, and after taking off the cast iron headers, I also cracked a bolt. 

Happened so sudden.

They were not sticking out enough to be easily taken out soo...

I'm putting in a rebuilt L-16 previous owner had rebuilt it, not fresh but also not old! :devil:

It has the early 210 head, not the best for performance but it'll do for now until my L-20 comes :yawn:

 

Oo goody, look at what's going on there.

The rubber mount on the dogleg from a 200sx did not fit/adapt to the 510 tranny mount? wierd well luckily i found a L-20 5 speed that did adapt [510 to Rubber to Tranny]

Yeah I know. Its your car Im just preventing you from looking lLAME later. As a stock type(small 13in case) turbo you can tuck it up so it dont hit goig into driveways and the such.

 

When I was young having a playboy Rabbit sticker on the car was cool also

Then Local Motion stickers

DG then Monster ect ,Double wiper blades. Wire wheels that stick out.

Gabrial HiJacker shocks

BIG Wings , Spinner wheels, ect....

Converting Datsun trucks to Square headlights(lame now)

Wings on Subarus, these look lame now.

 

Ok

 

I boxed flair my 1st 510, Now looking back BIG MISTAKE cool at the time

I'll keep your advice in mind an just use the expansion+u bolt method to put it on, that way I'll be able to interchange mufflers!.

 

BTW my taste for 510's has shaped up alot,for ex..bre spooks only go with fender mirrors and my taste for only classic rims, ssr and hayashi

 

I may change my style of the muffler probably soon hahaa

 

I don't like dimes flared,at all unless bre slammed with 13" libres
