Re: Re: *COMPLETED* Datsun 510 - Revell

Reminds me of a hopped up mini cooper in the first picture . I like the overall quality of the build, and the attention to detail that you used. I'm sure if this were the 80's with the few improvements you did in the engine bay, you'd have yourself a track star.

Love it! It looks like it could compete with the old school Skiylines.

Actually, these little things, tuned just the same way, are still kicking ass and taking names in SCCA Improved Touring and GT4 competition. You'll always find hotted-up 510's at autocrosses and track days. They're almost as timeless as my B.

slk, this is one hellaciously good representation of Datsun's brilliant little box. Though I'm a bit bummed that you used Fujimi 17" RS Watanabes on it. I was going to use those exact same wheels on my 510 (struck a deal with Ferrari TR to get them)

Re: *COMPLETED* Datsun 510 - Revell

HAHAHA sorry man. But you can paint yours a different color or have a silver lip... I had considered so many wheels and Anotnio mailed me a nice two piece set, but ultimately I loved the look of the RS Watannabes. I guess you do too
