Re: VG33 (Xterra) Swap - 2022

I think in the end a Honda K will cost 2-3X what a KA would cost. Our Honda K trans adapter cost 1300 bucks but we wanted to keep the 71C transmission in our racecar. There are cheaper ones but really there aren't many good options. RX8 and BRZ are the only ones I would want to use in a 510. The res...

Re: VG33 (Xterra) Swap - 2022

The KA came in D21's till 97. We see lots down here after that it got the dual cam till 2003. I understand though. You've decided VG. I would never run those mounts you posted. the shock bushing style mounts are the worst. Makes you car vibrate so bad. Can't even have a soda in your drink holder. Th...

Re: Early Vs Late Control Arms

early sucks. they use like a shock bushing. Lots of compliance and even new ones. Late control arms is where it's at.

Plus when you google things about our Datto's you end up 2 places. Here or Ratsun. We gotta keep the info accessible! I mean so much is lost now that everyone posts on Facebook and instagram.

Looks nice! I did the DP racing brake pedal box. Worked great but I hate how he uses imperial fasteners.

Plus it's annoying when you are on a computer that's not yours and you don't want to log in to see what's going on.

Re: The Great Rolling Dyno engine rebuild

That's so cool your rig is back on the road! I want to head over to Andy's shop with you one day!! Boost is the best! I just still can't imagine you back in the 70s putting your first turbo kit on. Dang that must have been nuts!!!

Re: S13 coupe drift car project

Some progress on my drift build. Order some parts on Black Friday "sales". got a clutch, OEM rod and main bearings and a few seals. Stock bearings have some wear. Before I bang it off the limiter all weekend I wanted to swap in new bearings. If you run OEM bearings they are graded. So I ha...

Re: Am I in over my head? '70 2 door from scratch

With your steering arm issue. Why not just swap struts side to side? Put the calipers on the rear instead of the front or visa versa? Did not think of trying that or know it was an option, but makes sense (I think). Not sure if that has any impact on anything??? The new arms are on their way so I'l...
