New World Datsuns...

After the Sentra was in an accident. This was aquired.. '81 210 a15 5 speed. Been a daily since June/July.

I see you rockin this thing all over town!

Hope life is treating you well.

Thanks dude. It's been such a trooper! Lifes been crazy but somehow im still alive. haha.. So I burned out an exhaust valve the day after halloween. Luckily it was a pretty easy fix for a first timer. Huge increase in power with the new valves, shitty rings still have me burning a ton of oil.

.....8k miles go by....

Bearing down on connecting rod 2. all that oil burning took me out of the race for a couple days! welp... here's the damage currently as of December 27th
mikes goon...

Certainly doesn't look good!

where you living these days? I'm down to lend a hand anytime I can.

It's definitely fucked. Waiting to get a way to the shop to get an opinion on it. Just not going to carry a crankshaft across town today! haha
Craig, Levi and I ended up moving to South Eugene. Found a house with a garage that worked for us. I'll send you my updated info! After a summer of (almost) having a wedding, to birthdays, family visiting and moving life had finally gotten back to semi smooth! Lifes crazy man...

Measured out the diameter and the others measure .204mm and the damaged one is at .185mm with some light damage to the rod end as well.

Dang.. might need to find another crank?

yeah thats the current search

Offset grind and high compression stroker build?

you can always have the crank welded and re ground, but $$$. best bet to find another. the guy I got my b210 from has a few motors for me I just need to get up there to get them... Maybe soon hopefully.

That's true. All the grinding shit is an option. Forgot about an a15 in storage. So there might be the solution. I think it's levis original white goons motor..

To the rescue!

So ended up not being the white 210's original. We cracked it open, this mystery a15 that is. to find this


Looking over it, it appears to be a young buck Pistons look good, oil pickup clean. Not much sludge or any play anywhere. I think we're gonna run this block. Once parts arrive. That will buy me time to get the other one off the burner.

Certainly an easier fix than the other.

Ooooh nice. Love pics like this.

Cleaning and some more cleaning waiting for parts to arrive ..


And today's the day it all goes back together.
Feel free yall to come hang out. ill be here til late im sure

Man, if I didn't have homework I'd be there!
