**Description:**

Ok well I am now in the market for a datsun 510 and im looking to get rid of my baby. I really dont want to but space in my driveway is filling up with all the cars i have. I am in no real rush to sell this as finding a 510 is harder then finding sir bin laden.

so here it goes  
exterior  
Flat black paint.(clear coat was comming off the red paint so i FB’d it)  
megan street coilovers fully adjustable  
Fast octaine rims(x4) with front extentions on the coilovers.  
rims mounted on michlin pilot sports. 245/45/zr17 rear,235/35/zr17  
silvia front end converison with silvia aero bumper.  
dual projectors.  
silvia front mounting brackets  
REAL jdm sideskirts.  
Real OEM rear lip

Interior  
Full automatic windows  
HUD dash, HUD cluster _(SR20det)_  
HUD front glass  
black tweeeed.  
sony xplode deck with USB port  
pioneer speakers.  
2 10" pioneer subwoofers(800w)  
pioneer amp (700w)

Motor  
Redtop sr20det _bought from ted(heatw)_  
perfect compression across the chart  
only problem ever was a alternator and was replaced with a blacktop alt\*(From varun)\*  
oilchanges ever 2000km  
plug changes every 1000km  
taka turbo lines  
nismo motor mounts  
Prof sheep dog blow off valve(can be recirculated) but is external  
altima fans(bought from gonad)  
ka rad ☹  
new coolant  
3" turbo back exhaust with “cat:P”  
Bee\*R racing muffler.  
welded diff(will sell also with a jdm s14vlsd, that i mite replace before selling)  
Turbo Timer.

the frame rail when i bought the car, the drivers side had a small hole and was professionally patched.(many other people from this fourm had the same guy do work and can vouch for his work)

other then that as far as rust goes there is some on the drivers side rear quarter. nothing to bad but the metal is getting thin.  
hatch is rusted and a small hole has formed under the spoiler(common.)  
around the a piller on driver and passenger side there is a bit of rust(from the last owner puting in the HUD Window)  
the heater only blows out of ever vent, i can get this problem fixed before selling if someone is SERIOUSLY INTERESTED.  
car has not seen snow since i owned it.  
**the car has been drifted**  
no major problems with it.  
could use new wipers.
