plans uhmmm.. i want to sr20det it for sure.. but then i dont know where to get the custom oil pan at? i want that oil pan that says sr20 on it. but ive been asking around and no one is replying or no one knows where to get it. but i found where to get the mounts, custom manifold and etc. but anyways. im going to lower it on ground control coilovers w/ tokico struts. fiberglass hood, fender, front valance, front lower spoiler, rear valance, and trunk. BRE fender flairs... completely restored interior besides the two sparco i got for it and the autopower race roll bar. and im not quiet sure what color to paint it. i was thinking a light tan color with the bronze w/ polished lip panasport rims.

ima newbie with this datsun stuff im coming from the whole "JDM" honda world. i had a 90' crx si-R and i decided ditch the hondas and get into the classic imports so i need alot of help finding sites that deals with profromance datsun 510 parts. thanks in advance.

i got more pics ill post them up later .

Thats awesome, I'm a huge fan of the 510. SR will be cool in it, seen it done a bunch in magazines. Good luck and keep us updated.
