meaning, is there a website where all the interchangeable parts for the 510 are listed?

that would be to good to be true huh?

well im a long time nissan guy with the 510 bug and im hopefully picking up a shell next weekend. its really just a shell, so im not sure where to begin. i have the q45 4.5 engine with the 300z 5 spd tranny, turbos, and the knowhow to get it in there. where do i begin for suspension. this is going to be a slow build, but i dont want to really cheap out on anything too much. if there are brand new suspension componants available, id rather get them, i just have no idea where to look.
im starting here on nico because ive been a member for a while, but if there are better, websites/forums, please tell. im just looking for all the options, whos done what, what works better than the other. i know there is alot of info out there, and im going to start collecting, i would just hate to not have done the best option available.

i wish i could find a 510 guru around my area, but these cars are not very popular up north east! ive heard of one guy, im just waiting to get his #.

thanks for any help

Tom in CT.

I just now saw this thread. If you need specifics, let me know. I have a contact who pretty much knows a Dime like the back of his hand. I'll pick his brain for you.
