ive got a sedan i picked up for dirt cheap a little over a year ago. its been sitting waiting for its turn in line behind my prelude build - http://www.preludepower.com/forums/show ... ost2883447 - i have just recently acquired the donor drivetrain for my datsun from this 240sx with a SR20DETmy-checkerboard-240-the-a-drivetrain-4- ... 48855.html i plan on ultimately having the prelude for a comuter, and the datsun as my baby... it want it done RIGHT... ive been down the road of a car restore in the past. i know it wasnt easy, but it was definetly rewarding. i have the help of a few friends of mine that comprise "team internal combustion" - http://www.myspace.com/internal_combustion07, and https://www.facebook.com/InternalCombustion i look forward to this journey, however am struggling through the trials of working full time, supporting a family, and living 1.5hrs away from work. i know that times are hard for everybody, and for that i thank God for my job, and the support ive recieved. i havnt done much of anything to the car as of yet, i have cut the springs (1.5 coils) in the front, and put some old school "mags" on it that i picked up for cheap. id like to start on the SR20 swap sooner than later, but im also trying not to get side tracked from my existing prelude project or ill never get done! lol.. knowledgable input is greatly appreciated.

like ive said so many times before. a picture is worth a thousand words sooo....

here is the car in the woods where i got it (this is the literal CL picture)

this is me and my buddy towing it home

first trial of FWD offset wheels... they were a NO GO -

chopped the springs (pictured is a friend of mine, NOT ME) -

how it sits currently, awaiting attention AKA the SR20DET -

Off to a great start!

I love seeing people snatch up unwanted antique Datsuns and bring them back to life... I'm in the middle of a '68 4-door restoration right now.

did these pictures load for you? i seem to be having difficulty getting them to work on my laptop.

Yea I see them looks good I can't wait to see the finished product.

the project WILL see the finish line, so help me GOD. lol. but i gotta finish up with that prelude first. did you get a chance to check that link? the prelude power link?

Yahhhhhha another one saved ive got a 2 door but i love the 4s . please show updates, ive been messing w dimes sence the 80s if u have qestion let me know.

most definetly... im really looking forward to this build. i seem to have been getting alot of support for this thing especially in comparison to dealing with the honda community. IM LOVING IT!

It's what we do.

In fact, if you document your build really well (with pictures and details), it just might make it onto the front page!

and this... my new friends, is why i (after about three years of boycotting forums) is why i have officially decided to get back into the time consuming internet game. lol. thankyou all for your support

...not to mention it's the best and quickest way to find parts (and answers)!

haha ^^^ true that!
