The engine was developed in the early 80's. Of course it sounds like shit. It's likely totally normal.

I have never seen one of those before

I approve of banana. someone will watch that if you make it.

My suggestions: first and foremost, more light. Videos are a visual medium and I can't see shit.
Also either get a handheld stabilizer or stabilize in post. Shaky handheld footage isn't really acceptable anymore.
You definitely have the right idea with the editing though, keep going that direction.

My request is that if you change the setup, give us before/after footage that demonstrates the changes you make. Watching parts get swapped is half of it, seeing the tangible effect it has on performance/handling ties is what makes it worth watching for me.

Thanks, I'll try to get some more light in the garage. If I do stuff on the weekends I can use the daylight from outside. It might also help to record with something other than a gopro. Making videos isn't exactly my forte.

I will try to do some before/after stuff for setup changes, maybe after I get the basics up there.

Never. Those inept hypefaggots rake in pronographic sums in parts markup off of gullible losers.

They did with the W126 I believe, then they gave up and went for vursprung durr technik which is cool for about 3 years before it breaks.

Judge for yourself if those years are worth it. The germans still make excellent cars like the 911 in pic.

since forever
they are the only nation to win the marathon de la route (nurburgring 84 hours. yes. eighty four)

also the 911 can do this, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A5DRCTW-Q7o
whereas american cars such as the corvette literally overheat and shutdown into limp mode while idling in a parking lot

You having any type of mechanical competence

>>16280640

dunno how it works where you are but here in Canada a salvage title inspection is such a bitch to pass its usually not worth it

>>16280645
Fair enough.

I do recognize that I'll need a new ECU, suspension, brakes and shit though.
>>16280650
Ah, shit. Canada here too, may as well just find a rolling shell or something then

>>16280487
Is it the pod filter directly over the exhaust?

air cleaner's in a bad spot, and those hoses coming out of the valve cover look like the wrong kind of hose to have in an engine bay

>inline six
into the trash

It's has a more reliable straight 4 sourced by Audi, because it came out a van.

Most natural aspirated models from the 70s only have two disc brakes.
The turbo model is one of the few trims that had brake discs all the way around.

Most of the interior parts are the same you'd find in a VW and Audi econbox

Van engine is slow but tunable to a degree.

That's all the info I have, I'd still want a 924 over a 944 cause muh narrow body. But I'd pay extra dosh for the turbo even tho it's a prehistoric turbo setup.

>>16280068
silicone only works if everything is clean and dry.
no oil
no coolant
nothing on there.
take it all apart and make sure everything is spotless and try again

Itsuki pls go

>>16279595
kinda hard to tell, but my guess is heater core. that's the only thing under the dash that has coolant in it.

Ofcourse. You'll just come to hate how loud, uncomfortable, expensive and heavy it is

Might aswell get a C303 6x6 or a Pinzgauer 6x6 while you're at it

>>16279593

Just get a Deuce and a half. Spend the other 50 grand on fuel and blow to do off the asses in the back.

would be cool but even harder to find parts

>>16279551
>> 80k miles
Probably closer to 180k

Most likely hidden major rust as is typical of older Nissans
>but it's a Datsun
Same shit, my granpappy had one.

I'd give him $2k at most.

>>16279551
>> 1969 Datsun
>>$4500 obo

that's why

>>16279551
Don't know about New York but this is considered a pre-smog car in CA and therefore is highly valuable because you can do whatever the fuck you want to it and still have it be road legal.

If it has very low rust (i.e., nothing out of the ordinary), I'd offer 3500.
