Welcome to NPORA! lol theres always somthing. just down to the new pathy and this atm... (as far as personal rigs go) Iv got some fun customer stuff coming up tho, an RB powered Z and a guy who still decideding on VQ or 2JZ swap for his Z Picked the pathy up with 173k on it with the timing belt service done 1k ago, lol one less thing Iv gotta do.

Skib Posted January 21, 2013 Author Share Posted January 21, 2013 Wow, Datsun heaven! A couple of those look familiar, I've either seen them in mags, on the web or at the Datsun meet that used to be held at Met Shasta. there was one that came out in like modified mag a few months ago that was a blue/purple SR 510 that we painted a while back. some of those cars have made the round too haha That Z . my most missed datto Welcome... very nice rides...Ill be looking forward to your Pathfinder build if it will be like your other builds. lol Im tying to clean up the defects atm but I know better, I cant leave things stock for too long. the VG deff needs a new intake fabbed up, better exhaust and some cams at the least. has the typical rear pass exhaust stud leak but other than that runs tip top. I just scored most of the stuff I need to fix the little things at the yard today. Ill have some more pics of the pathy up a bit later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kingman Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Ah Skib, seen you're name a few times. Welcome to the forum man! If you want a real good tow rig drop a 3.3L with 3.0L cams in that bitch and put some Ford F100 coils in the back. That'll take care of most of the towing problems.

Precise1 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Howdy, and welcome to NPORA! Very nice work, it looks like you know what you are doing! Certainly more ambitious than most... the VG deff needs a new intake fabbed up, better exhaust and some cams at the least. You might be surprised at how well the stock set up flows, it is only a 3.0l. Exhaust and cams are a given, but other than a larger filter or whatnot, the stock intake will probably be sufficient. There is someone trying to put together a group buy for some cams, I believe it is in the 1990-1995 section. Sorry about the missing Admin buttons, but I suspect it is nice not to have them as well... B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B hahaha on a forum with ~14,000 memebers its deff a full time job occationally. its got a very well built community around it so I dont usually have to step in to often. lol but when @!*% hits the fan I dont just get a PM my phone starts ringing Edited January 22, 2013 by Skib Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
