HEy guys, I been fighting a tailbone infection for the past week, so i haven't done much driving. I did drive all day on Saturday, and the car runs awesome. Thanks again to Frank and Jeff I defenetly should of change the clutch before the swap, but we took the chance since it sold to me as "low-milage" engine. I dont' think it was out of cheapness, i just didn't have the time to be on every detail, with work and school. The clutch itself is not slipping under load, just has a really high release. Is there anyway to adjust this? At the rate that i am driving it, it should last me some time. I'll post more pics when i get the chance.

Oh yeah, hainz, what is the m3 tail you taking about? a spoiler?

I seen the burgandy one some time before i bought mine up here in everett. They must of been heading north to a show in canada (there was a group of 510's). At the time, i fell in love with the flared look, so when i saw mine for sale i went for it. Those wheels would look good, but the back look rather weird (they don't have negative offset, deep dish look that i want). I always wanted the wantanabe wheels like in the blue car in this pic. I was told that they don't make the tires that i have anymore, so i am due for new wheels in the new future.

Thanks guys! fisch, it's all good about the flares. It's actually funny, because i go thru periods were i hate them, then i loved again. I was just talking about it with my dad yesterday. I think the car does look better from some angles, still that doesn't justify them.

Wow that looks awesome! Can you photoshop the car with different wheels?

Hey guys, my name is Augusto and i am the owner of the car. This is my first post here so i just wanted to say hi to everybody. I bought the car about 3-4 years ago from a guy down in bremerton. Don't know much about the story of the car beyond that. Since then we (my dad and me) been putting a lot of effort trying to get the car finished. The car came with the body work already done. The flared look wasn't my top choice but the car is very solid inside out. Someone spent a lot of money and time on it before me. I see a lot of people a dogging on the flares, but that is ok. I do like them better than the high-box flare ones because of the akward gascap cut out. My next datsun project is going to be more of the ratsun, non-flared type, but that is the future. New wheels are defnetly in the plan, so if anyone has something that might fit, let me know. Oh yeah, the hood pins... back when i was young (3 year ago) one of the 510 gods (aka Frank) told me scary stories about 510 hoods attacking inocent windshields while driving. That why i put them there. they might go when i get my rising sun hood. don't know yet. Anyways, thank you guys for showing interest for my project, and thanks to frank and wolfman for all the help.
