If it's not to late, These guys- http://www.nissco.com.au/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; do rear gaurd lower sections the same as the ones Miguel sss used in his build thread. Last time I asked them, they were talking $235AU plus postage, but they look like a well made unit, so probably money well spent if you wanted to go down that route. They also have new lower guard sections, which is another problem area on the mighty and venerable datsun 510's.

Please elaborate on your plans for the supercharger? (Drawthrough? Blowthorugh? ect) I can get you a real sharp deal on a custon crank pulley set up to drive it if you're interested. I also have a 32/36 weber and adapter that came off my car if you had drawthrough in mind. Although since your other sick addiction is the ol bricks, I'm guessing you'll be heading down the avenue of blowthrough SUs.
