\"1973<\/a><\/p>\n

JP from Works Garage<\/a> received a 1973 Datsun 510 as a roller several years ago. Since then he’s rebuilt the coupe to handle the street and track.<\/p>\n

JP considered powering the 510 with a KA24 or a SR20. However he settled on a 2.0 L F20C<\/a> inline-four from a first generation Honda S2000. The motor sits on custom mounts and runs off a standalone ECU through a custom wiring harness by Ryan Maxwell Racing. Read more about the mods required to swap the F20C in this Speed Academy article<\/a>. <\/p>\n

The high-revving F20C produces 237 hp (177 kW) and 155 lb-ft (210 Nm) of torque. Behind the motor is a S2000 six-speed manual transmission covered by a custom transmission tunnel. A custom driveshaft sends power to the rear wheels through a Subaru STI R180 differential and custom axles. <\/p>\n

The 510 rides on a custom adjustable suspension thanks to a series of Heim joints. Bumps are handled by Koni adjustable shocks and Eibach springs. JP also improved braking with a set of Nissan S14 disc brakes kept cool via custom ducting.<\/p>\n
