Awesome!! You helped out quite a bit, I really appreciate it. I'll be sure to continue on with the swap and I'll most likely end up keeping my differential. I'll be running 15" rims (or at least that's the plan) so I think highway RPM's should be good enough. I can't wait for it to be manual, it will be like you said, WAY more fun haha

I just recently picked up a 240z 4 speed manual transmission and drive shaft, but I'm obviously going to need some more parts to complete this conversion... Firstly, I'm unsure if I need to change my diff because I believe I have the R180 3.545 geared differential. I'm not intending to race the car anytime soon, but I don't want to cheat myself out of better performance if I have the option. Secondly, I'm having trouble finding a proper clutch pedal assembly (I think it comes as a brake and clutch assembly). I'm new to this part of Datsuns, so feel free to correct me or tell me I'm being stupid. lol Lastly, I don't know if there are any bushings, pins, or anything else i'll need to accomplish this swap. I know I need to buy a clutch (obviously lol) and I plan on getting a short throw kit, but I also heard I may need to buy a new console. This is probably a lot to ask in just one post, but any help at all is greatly appreciated!!!

Personally, I like the paint scheme. BUT, you should decide what makes you the happiest. After all, it is your car.. Hopefully you don't get charged an arm and a leg for the paint lol Either way, go with your gut.

Thanks for looking into to that!! There is a very good possibility that I will be buying this car. If I do end up buying it, expect a build thread later on! :D

I really really want to buy this car.. Do you think this would make a good platform for an actual dedicated track car?

I agree Daniel, the fact that it has no title kind of freaks me out. But I'm also not sure how difficult it is to get a new one (if that's even possible). I'm fairly new to the paperwork aspect of cars.. And I'm getting the same feeling from this car Saints haha it's calling out to me "save me! spend money on me!" lol

I'm looking for a good platform to build a BRE style racer. I was eventually thinking of swapping a SR20DET or an RB, but I wanted to know if this car was worth the money. It honestly seems like it might be too good to be true, like maybe it has a rusted frame or something. If not, this looks like an amazing deal to me. But I want to know what you guys have to say about 210's and if you think it's a good deal. Also, if any of you guys want to jump on the deal, go for it (I don't necessarily have the garage space lol). Here's the ad: (Based out of Ohio) http://dayton.craigslist.org/cto/4316503327.html

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't the Bosozoku gang steal them from subways and put them on their cars as a sign of disrespect towards the police?

I just purchased a tsurikawa off of ebay! I hope it's not too crappy (priced at only $18), but nonetheless I have you guys to thank for telling me what it really is! It will definitely be a cool addition to the car.

Ahhhh okay, thanks for the info! I'm thinking about one for my car... Not to copy or anything lol

I'm loving the look of this s30. Also, I like the fact that you weren't satisfied with the way it sat and made those coilovers work. I eventually want to run some adjustable coilovers on mine... Any recommendations? I would be completely fine with doing some strut tower fabrication if it means getting the right coils. Awesome build! :thumbup:

Sorry to be oblivious, but where did you get that hanging tow hook? And I'm in love with the ski rack haha

Needs a bath and outside pics, but here's mine Hope you like it!

I sold my 2004 Impala for profit and picked up this rust-free 1974 260Z when I was 18. I've been doing nonstop work ever since!
