1969 Datsun 510 Track Car | Classic Japanese Motoring Done Right
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 2 ส.ค. 2017
- Finally we're driving a classic Datsun 510 on the twisty back-roads and enjoying every minute! This 4-door example has been modified extensively for the track and has accepted no substitute in the pursuit of ultimate driving pleasure. With a fully stripped interior, roll cage, racing seats, suspension, sticky tires, and a high-revving, period correct, N/A engine, this Datsun 510 is just about as good as classic motoring gets. Enjoy!

Hard to beat the sound of an N/A L series with side drafts and free flow exhaust. No matter what the power plant, I'm always psyched to see a 510 build done well. I TOTALLY respect what Roads Untraveled is doing, and it was a gas watching the reviewer start to get a sense of what a well sorted 510 is capable of. It's completely accurate the way he describes the steering as feeling heavy. You expect understeer, but applying more input, it just keeps gripping. The amazing thing is, when it does finally break loose there's no drama. Ease up on the gas, grip comes back and off you go. If you're powering too hard out of a corner and the back comes out, lighten your grip on the wheel, let up on the gas, let the wheel find grip and the car will recover itself like magic. Note, you need to be running plenty positive caster to do this.
No matter what, jumping from hyper tech modern cars to an older no tech car there's going to be a bit of a learning curve. When a novice reviews a 50 year old Japanese icon like the 510 though, there's always going to be assholes like me who have to correct them.
1. Just because you can buy a JDM Bluebird Coupe emblem on Ebay doesn't mean it belongs an a North American market four door PL 150 sedan's grill. Bad mogo
2. Calling out ITBs when referring to side drafts is like pointing out hooves when referring to horses. It's a given, not a unique feature.
3. That is not a six point "full roll cage", it's a four point bolt in rear cage.
Now I'll climb down off my high horse and say Than You for a great vid man.
The Bluebird badge is there just because I was taking after the white bird and thought it was cool. The Datsun grill badge was mashed in an accident.
I'm a simple guy. I see Datsun, I press like.
The quality of your videos keep getting better. So darn enjoyable to watch!
Old datsuns are so cool! They're such happy little cars. Great video man!

Still dont understand how this channel doesnt have 500k+ subs
love this guy for blessing up a datsun great vid!!
Saw this car at autocross not long ago. It was awesome.
LetsWatchBob Where you go for autocross? Lol
Gopi_123 Pitt Meadows Airport with UBCSCC
How could you not like old Datsuns!
Having the inside headlamp holes converted to air intakes, makes for an interesting dual headlight look. This not seen in a 510 all too often.
YES FINALLY A 510
Same formula and concept that makes a 90's Honda fun.
I love the "chopped" sticker on the rear window!
This is exactly the sort of car I would want to own at some point.
That's my favourite car of all time
Great video! Should have a ton more views and awesome job to the owner!
I would argue that a few pounds of thermal/sound protection placed in the right spots reduces driver fatigue, gives better situational awareness and makes you more in tune with what the chassis is doing by being less bombarded with engine/transmission noise. You can hear your tires breaking sooner, giving you better reaction times. Just a thought.
Concur..

I love the Datsun 510, the 510 BRE was the first race car I've ever watched
I absolutely love it and it´s MCM approved - Nice! ✌
What a sound!
Show us more clips from inside of the car from different angles maybe passenger angle, from the rear passenger angle. looking on the road not always the driver when you arent saying anything when you go through twisties. Especially with older race cars like this one. You have similar videos on TH-cam with for example Ferrari F40. And more classics like this, really enjoyed that one
My mans Marcus been hitting the gym.
DATSUN!!!!!!!!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
God do I love your vids!
These cars are RIDICULOUSLY LIGHT, put any modified engine and a propeller and it will FLY!!!
sweet cpu case, I'm looking to buy the same soon!
i wishd id had datsun some day
SWEET whip! Not a full cage,it's a roll bar ehh!✌👍☝
Now bear with me, because I know the stigma that comes with this statement, but my 97 Civic coupe makes 508 whp and with me in it, it weighs 2458. It doesn't have some ridiculous body kit (because this isn't 1998) and it has a factory Si wing, and it was built to be a show car as well as a powerful monster. I'm 34 and this is my 53rd car since I was 14, and it's everything I've ever wanted in an import. I love it, and I did it ALL myself. 1.8L DOHC block, Eagle rods, Wiseco pistons, ARP rod studs, main studs, head studs, flywheel bolts, pressure plate bolts, timing tensioner bolt, underdrive pulley bolt, JDM B18C Type-R head, PLM top mount turbo manifold, PLM 3" turbo back cat-less exhaust, Turbonetics 60-1 Hifi, 22 psi, FID 1000cc injectors, E85 tuned on Crome Gold, and way too much more to list in a YT Comment. I built it, I bodyworked it, and I painted it. It's my version of a dream Honda. I built it because of the hate that Hondas get from the boy ricers. I love my car. I know that you would love it. If you're ever in Pittsburgh, let me know.
That is a sweet car, I sooooooo want a 510 powered by sr20det
Last time I saw one was back in 2005. It was a green 1971 model and looked immaculate. Probably was owned by an elderly gentleman.
Datsun 510 new favourite car
Sick bluebird, n it's also blue :D
Old Datsuns make me cream
Damn bro your PC is badass.
Can't wait to finish mine, it'll have an SR20DET swap
better get one soon- the SRs arent used any more and are getting hard to find
@@tommurphy4307 I can't believe you replied to a comment I made 3 years ago. I got it done last year.
@@skrachvynl no videos of it???
@@jeremyfranco291 WOW, 3 years later......I don't have videos of it and barely some pictures. check my IG @skrachvynl I do want to make a video eventually and maybe my own channel for my new project, AE86 build
@@skrachvynl yah that'd be dope bro and let me know if you ever need stuff, I have a 510 and 521 and a bunch of other junk lol. Its under datsun 521 camper on TH-cam, thanks for getting back by the way. Been debating on doing a swap on my next 510 just a lil nervous since it will be the first swap I've ever done.
PURE
nice PC dudi
Andy at Specialty Engineering built both mine and my dads L20B!
He does great work. I spin it up to 7500 almost every shift and after 4 years there has been not a single hiccup. I am talking to him now about a 260hp NA KA.
Another awesome car, but what are the specs of that PC? I'm seeing a sexy SLI setup going on there :P
Those Pro Race 1.2 (or 3?) wheels look great on the car too!
Pro Race 1.2
Damn that's the color I wanted to paint mine! Where was this filmed? Sweet video
Nice 510- I had a 69 and 73 wish I still had one- btw those are not itbs they are side draft carburetors
the noise, is twin carbs for you :))
the noise is from the air cleaner- not the carbs. with a proper air cleaner, SU's really aren't loud. i've heard some fast sleepers with big SUs under there. SUs need stacks and completely enclosed air cleaners to be right.
510/Bluebird never had power steering like most cars of the era had a 2dr blue one that I miss so much
Nice video I like it! Don't worry about the couple mistakes you made cause everyone does! We have a 510 coupe we are working on. You said you want to do more videos with older Japanese cars let me know, ours is from 72 it's a bit different though it has a 12a Rotary street port with a blow through turbo. We have a few videos up check them out and let me know.
I have a 1968 Datsun 510 with the SR20DET swap 325hp on pump 400 plus HP on E85 or race fuel. My son and I built it ourselves $20K in parts well worth it, its my Hayabusa on four wheels. We have tracked it but because its modified way beyond stock we have to race in the unlimited modified group. With the five speed trans and stock RR we hit 148 mph on the front straightaway at AAA auto raceway in Fontana Ca. ran out of gear not horsepower. Wicked.
Wow 148 is silly fast in a 510. This one tops out at 136mph at 8k in 5th. I don't think I would want to go faster in a dime.
@@normlabreche7864 my speedo said 136mph but we had tracking devices on the cars issued by the club and according to them, we hit 148 we have taller tires ??? 5 spd I don't know the Rear gears ?
@@SurfCityAmpRoom1 ya this is with 23" tall tires 4.44 rear gears and .86 overdrive on the 280z transmission. The speedo disapears at about 130kph on it so I just did the math.
My dad had friends way back in the early '80s with Datsun 510's.
He raced them with his '65 Beetle on nitrous and completely dusted them.
That's cool. It's a good thing he stuck to drag racing though. I'd hate to see his Beetle end up in the ditch at the first corner.
Matt Dock his Beetle had been in a ditch many times in the past. He bought it sitting in a ditch for 50 dollars. Built it up, had it stolen, stripped, and abandoned in a ditch, and then built it again 4 times before he sold it.
the intro reminds me so much of Farrah's one take intros fml
Is that a speedometer from a mini?
Nothing handles like a dime
Unshakable in a corner
I's love to see you do a C10 GTR at some point if possible!
Yesidoplaytheguitar That would be awesome. By far the purest and best looking gtr, how a real sportscar should be ✌🏻
I'm shocked that it's LHD. I know they did import some japanese cars in
Makes me want to go downstairs and toy with my candy apple blue boxed out Datsun 510
I'm planning on starting a 510 project with the same power and weight as yours. I want to be able to daily drive it, what are you getting MPG?
If I take it easy I can hit 22-23 mpg but if I am on it I average around 11 mpg.
MCM chopped sticker =D
I wanna see this thing handle with 25mm spacers and some mild fender flares. That track width is so narrow. And a 5 speed. Thing would destroy modern day miata's/FRS's around a track
Marcus, are the prices on your website in US or Canadian dollars?
US dollars.
Whats kind of rear view mirror he has in there? the long one up there?
It is a wink mirror.
Chopped :)
Please do a review on a 240z, and not a engine swapped one. Please, please, pleaseee!
From another 510 lifer, Norman did one hell of a job on his 69. LOVE that he kept the stock speedo, but could have done without the addition of Bluebird badging on a four door PL510. Us old guys who grew up driving these purely analog non-power assist/override anything cars learned to read the road by what the car was telling us. Once you tune into this experience you can do things a fly by wire modern car can't. I realize new cars are easier and more forgiving making it safer to drive, but that takes so much away from the real diving experience IMO. Spend some time behind the wheel of a light little Japanese classic and when you nail a corner and feel it in your naughty bit's you'll know the difference.
This kid drove mine and couldn't stop giggling.

Try to find a Lowered Nissan Hardbody please
Hey, I'm looking for parts for my 69 L521 with a j13, please help...
Why would someone want to click away?! 🤗
What was the motor?
Great video, but those aren't ITB's my friend, those are twin solex sidedraft carbs. ITB's have fuel injection.
False. There is an individual throttle plate for each cylinder (each carb has 2 throttles 2x2=4). ITBs aren't exclusive to EFI.
Eternity & classiccarz whoops, need to stop posting so early in the morning haha
Stephen Gobbi No, im sorry but you're mistaken. ITBS arent exclusive to efi, but they are exclusive to injection, which this isnt. A throttle/throttle plate/throttle valve is not a throttle body. People quite commonly get the two confused. A throttle plate in a carb is a butterfly that draws in a mixture of air and fuel due to the pressure caused by a venturi. A throttle body is a butterfly valve with fuel injection occuring after the butterfly and relative to how far it is open.
Jbwifi Not a full cage either, like he said.
Stephen Loera TH-cam cut off half of my comment, but I have already explained the difference: A throttle plate in a carb is a butterfly that draws in a mixture of air and fuel due to the pressure caused by a venturi. A throttle body has a butterfly valve with fuel injection occuring after the butterfly and relative to how far it is open. They are very different. This datto does not have itbs.
First video of yours that I have seen, and probably the last. When you do a car review, you want to actually review the car you are driving. You seemed to toss a bunch of buzz words out there that didn't apply the the vehicle driven. I kept hearing these catchy phrases like " Track ready full cage" when I saw a half cage with nothing forward of the B pillar. These cars flex a lot when being driven hard and the ACTUAL full cage is needed. "Full on race car", "fully stripped out" and "pretty much everything is modified: I saw stock door panels, a stock headliner, stock dash, stock steel bumpers, and the entire steering column was from a stock car with an aftermarket steering wheel adapter. This is only the stuff that I could see. No mention of diff, trans or even a view of the engine bay??? What kind of car channel is this?
My overview: Norman you have a sweet street car that will be very fun on a track and back roads. I would love to see more under the hood.
Poster/host? more actual information and not buzz words that are incorrect. If you don't like criticism, keep doing what your doing.
Ryan W I agree with Ryan it is just a street car my Streetcar has adjustable brake bias made in the brake pedal box. Same as 510 race cars all doors are lighten Windows have are lighten plus flaired. We can go on & on. 510 street cars have always been built extensively. Now that motor sounds bad ass. Tuned rt with the right engine combo
Ryan W it's for kids, that's what type of car channel it is
maaad!
I think this is my old car, was it bought on the island a few years back?
Yes from Nanaimo 5 years ago. It has changed a bit since then.
How much you bench Marcus?
All the benches
This looks more like a half cage rather than a full cage as the doors and A pillars are still free. Is this correct my friend?
+E Channel correct!
Roll bar
chopped sticker in rear window!
That rear view mirror tho?
It's a wink mirror. Racers use them because you can essentially negate the need for side mirrors by using those long stretches of angled reflective surfaces so see all your blind spots without looking down away from the road.
How tall are you??!!!!
looks like japanese version of Lada 2101
nah Lada came after
only 1 year after, but if you count fiat 124 which is pretty much identical that's even older, started in 1966
darius2640 2 years before but doesnt matter. Alfa had the Giulia in 62
And don't forget the Mk2 Cortina. Geez manufacturers of that era just used a cookie cutter. Not much has changed in that regard...
Carbonfibre hood trunk doors wings would drop a shit load of weight of that little car
where was this video shot?
Slima Maple Ridge BC.
thanks Norm!
That's not a 69, the grill is from a 71 or 72 Pl510, rear brakes are mod. They had shoes on the rear and pwr steering wasn't available in 69 or 70. Cubic inch to horse power Datsun was the only company that did it. 1600cc =96 cid = 96 hp. 10 gal fuel tank at 30 mpg. 4 on the floor and paid $1,100.00. I owned the first custom Flower Power 2 Dr. Introduced to the U.S. in Hawaii. It was photoed and had a full spread with American Mag Wheels and oversized Firestone B13 tires in Playboy mag. A couple of years later I traded it for a 72 PL610 with a defroster and heater it was much more sporty like the Toyota, Celica. VW had met it's competition.
No the grill is not a 69, the 69 grill was mashed. The brakes are not stock.....they are wilwoods all around. The car IS a 69 built 10/69. I have never seen a stock 510 with power steering.....the car didn't need it, this one does not have it either.
Didnt Matt Farah review this car?
Very different cars. The 510 Matt drove was a flared two door car in Los Angelas. It was running an SR20DET and was fitted in a slightly more modern fashion.
What road is that ??
Mattertron who knows. It's untraveled.
At least you didn't say its somewhere in Mexico lol :)
Mattertron it's the road to Hayward lake and stave lake. It's between mission and maple ridge. He crosses the dam in one shot. It's an extremely fun road but you can't go crazy because there's almost always a cop
+Dan W I've personally never seen cop on the road you're talking about. But then again I never drive that road unless it's a weekday morning or something when it's empty.
Roads Untraveled I really only go there on weekends or weekday evenings so that's probably why. There's been a couple times where I've been hauling ass around there and I just get a feeling in my gut to slow down and then after I brake there's a cop around the corner. Never gotten a ticked there so I don't hesitate to drive it fast just not as fast as possible
Chopped sticker spotted
sweet car but it doesn't have a full cage, its a half cage
That's not a full cage by the way
caammm on you wanna lead us to believe he only increases the weight by 200 pounds? lol jk jk This car is gorgeous!!!
It's not itb. It is twin Carb.
That datto is awesome.. it sounds like a lawnmower lol
It needs an sr or fj for sure man
Why would you want an SR in a car that nice?
Just personal taste.
Would be worth more as is though
An SR wouldn't sound as nice. All you are listening to in the vid is intake sounds.
Because look at Australia most of them have sr20/fj20s in them ;)
The Aussies also like to put 17 and 18 inch wheels on their 510s and do burnouts until they break their half shafts. I wouldn't use them as a model of road performance.
chopped sticker!
No power steering... that made me laugh... as if it would ever have had it...!
I think he means 180 Tread Wear not 50...
No they are 50. They have since been replaced with new Yokohama A048's. They are 60 treadwear.
Nah that its a Satsuma
This is identical to a 510 I just sold. Check my channel for vids. I miss that car like I'd miss a limb.
4 doors belong on dirt, that is what Datsun did.
Ew why did he leave those bumper pieces on there? Ditch those metal bumper things and add a front lip and it's the cats meow!
Because the huge holes in the valence are an eyesore. Does need a spook though. If he ever wants to be able to hit triple digits at a track you need the front to have a lip of some kind or the car will begin to walk on you at those speeds.
4 Door family car not sport car full cage lol
