Ehhhh just another truck

[metalmonkey47]

I forgot about you guys here....

I totally lowered the ass of the truck more. You can't tell in these pictures because I had air in the rear shocks....but trust me. It's a lot lower.

This has so much character, please leave the paint as it is! Looks so cool.

[metalmonkey47]

I kinda want to paint it. BUT IDK.

I'm fucked up about what direction to go now. Part of me is screaming to put the old 15x10's back on.

I like the new wheels, butt muffin.

Me too.. but at the same time, I LOVE the old ones. Because they were so agressive. And sexy.

I think I'm gonna go back.

[Spawn613]

If they weren't 6 lug, I'd buy them bitches from you. Smooth wheels to compliment my smooth zenki... that's broken. :P

I went through a dilemma with my centerlines. Got em, loved em, switched em, wasn't mad, miss them sometimes. Hey so do you think the L series is KA fast? Hahaha.

Please bring the 15x10's back! Then we will be pals again

This thread made me register so i can get updates on this amazing build. Keep the up the amazing work.

very cool car. All the 'patina' and character mods, plus the shinies, works well!

i kinda prefer the fitment of the Centrelines, a little more like they 'fit' the body more, but then they are a bit...plain. The other wheels were more aggressive and had more character. Tough call, but at least you have both to mess with. Or do your odd pair thing and put the 10s up back? haha

I am sort of thinking it'd be cool if you cut the original faded 'DATSUN' out of that vinyl rising sun on the back. But maybe it wouldn't be that good, if you had some good with photoshop i would get them to etch out the letters and drop them onto a new photo of the back and see what it looks like..

Go back i reckon, just my 2cents

[metalmonkey47]

Well..... it's been a few months. And I went back. Well, only in the back. Long enough to wear out my old front tires (TONS of camber wear) I've been doing lots of burnouts.

I'm getting some flares soon. Then the 15x10's will be back in full effect!!


Random pics from the last few months...

LOL sorry forgot to post that... uh no.

Mainstream Performance is retarded. They were having issues with the dyno reading so IDK if my HP reading is even accurate.

To top that off, my chart rears HP/MPH not HP/RPM and no accurate torque reading. He also didn't rev it past about 6000 when I told him to run it to 7000.

And pulled in 3rd gear, instead of the obvious 4th.
So yeah. Numbers were wrong.

Only reason I used them was because of the dyno day. Otherwise I'd have used Batleground Motorsports.
