- There was a gathering of Nissan/Datsun Sunnys just down the road last weekend. Prominently in attendance were the Sunny truck/pickup/ute thingy, and several B310 Sunny sedans and station wagons, including a fancy-pants California. Of the non-Sunny contingent, there was a super tidy 510 Bluebird SSS along with several early Skylines. Of course GC10 Hakosukas, a GC110 Kenmeri, a GC210 Japan Skyline,

The smell is where it's at ;-)
The yellow one I love, not too perfect just the way I like it. What beautiful machines.
Yes! I agree. It's good to see older cars on the roads, still going strongly
What I love about this the most is the period-appropriate mods by the Japanese, 13" or 14" wheels, original-style engines, period Datsun competition buckets. If it was in Australia many would have oversized modern wheels, rubber band tyres and modern engine transplants. A big thumbs-up for old skool!
Thanks so much for watching, but also the information. I kinda like all (not really; very many) cars, so there's not much room for depth of knowledge. Just broad appreciating. Cheers
kind of cool to hear you talking with the locals, so cool and appreciative.
Thanks DJ. My Nihongo is actually very limited. Pronunciation is decent, so that fools many. I mean, Japanese think I know what they're saying. ;-)
Hi there Dan, I was wondering if this was the same meeting as an earlier video, or the meetings are a regular occurrences. I can now see what you meant by a 'California" wagon. That's the roof line my one had. In fact that was the only roof line the wagons had in Australia. The earlier square back roof-line is identical to the Sunny panelvan I had. I delivered a lot of pizzas in that van. As for growing up in the eighties, I was the one who had a 1200 sedan who took it to the street drags at Oran Park, & blew away the Toranas & other 6 cylinder cars. Even some V8's. It had an A14 & 100 rear wheel HP. Took it circuit racing in 1988, & fitted an A15. I used a crossmember form a B120 to fit the motors.
An earlier video? There was a live video of this gathering from last Sunday. Otherwise it's fresh out the oven
“Gotti” style wheels on the 4 door Hako. Very nice video.
Awesome. Thank you
damn, these oldschool cars are ichiban
Thanks. They are Ichiban as 😊
Love the Sunny station wagons !
What a fantastic show! Love Sunny trucks and vans. Also, really like 4-door Hakos with unmodified rear fenders. A long time ago, I had an uncle with a '79 Datsun 210 wagon, in orange.
Great video as always, Dan. Thanks again for sharing.
Thanks, Joe. Yes, the proportions of the Hako 4 door really are special. And, definitely a little lowness adds to the magic. Sweet family ride :)
Love the old pickups. I want one bad. Also love the way you show then parked for details and then driving away. Great vid as always. Who would have believed back in the day when these were new that the wagons would become cool, lol.
Lol. Yes! Oh, to have a time machine and pick up all the dream cars when they were in half decent nick and affordable!
Australia did do some radical Sunny Coupe 310's....a 10A Rotary conversion by Pas in Fast fours and Rotaries magazine. A few Pickups too...but you had to be into those books like I was in 1988 like I was. The memories flood back....Dat Sun, Dat Sun & Sunny....magic day for you, so close to home. Great stuff. 💹
Ah. I did mean performance versions of cars from the factory. Also, back in the day, I was very much not a reader of Fast 4's/Rotaries. Street Machine all the way. Thanks, Dean :)
I've got a fever.
The only prescription is more wasabi cars.
Hahahaha! Sick ;-)
Cheers Daniel, enjoyed the trip mate.
Thanks Peter. Hope you've been well, man
@@wasabicars Doing OK thanks mate, being vaxxed and out of that hard lockdown has certainly lightened the mood around here. Was looking a bit grim there for a bit. Thanks for asking. Hope you're doing well too mate. ☮
Exellent video like everyone here those sunny sedan and wagon can still becaren on the street and how execited l am to see your new videos would be a good detail with spanish subtitles!! Thanks friend from Costa Rica 🇨🇷
Thanks, Pedro :)
Fantastic video as always Daniel. When I was growing up people who owned older Japanese cars were considered to be poor. So finding a Japanese car of this era in the States is difficult. Though I am surprised to see the variety still on the road in Japan since I understand that the Japanese culture in the 70s-90s to have been very much indifferent to old/used things (as in products - not historical things of course). I'm glad the ones they are rocking here survived.
Thank you! Re: Variety. I totally get that you see "the variety", but from what I've seen of old school Japanese car mags, so much has long disappeared, eh. But, I'm all about celebrating all that stuff that's still around. So, happy days
Sunny Pickups made may crappy day today, and the engine sounds at the roll out 👍.
You had a crappy day? The Isuzu turbo diesel powered Mazda giving you trouble? Kidding, but I hope you're ok.
@@wasabicars The Isuzu engine runs like new and can't complain on that. What gave me a crappy day isn't car related thankful 😂.
I looooovvveee wing mirrors, I’d call them fender mirrors but hey tomato tomaato.
Exactly. How you say it is as weird to us as fender mirrors is to you ;-)
Thumbs Up number #247 very cool old school always bringing us all awesome cars, hope your doing well cheers 🥂🍻🍺 KC Cradle Mountain Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺🇦🇺🤝🇦🇺🇦🇺🤝🇯🇵🇯🇵😎👍
Thanks, matey. Yeah, getting by. Hope you're enjoying things down in Aussie land. I truly miss it
@@wasabicars everything is great in Tasmania The Real Down Under 🇦🇺🇦🇺😎👍 now the plane's are flying again you should be able to get home for a visit take care stay safe Dan cheers KC 🇦🇺🇦🇺🤝🇦🇺🇦🇺🤝🇯🇵🇯🇵😎👍
Wow man beautiful cars I won't ever see anything like these in the states, thanks alot for the content 🙏
Didn't get those Sunnys over there? Damn. I thought they went everywhere. Though, perhaps they did, but have since disappeared
Great video, thanks for sharing.
Very Nice loved to see those clean Datsun and Skylines cool 👍
Thank U :)
Gasoline smells wonderful !! , GX5 damn near perfect 🥂
I do love those engine smells. Interior smells, too, if they're non-smokers. Yes! That GX5 coupe was cleeeean
Dan is the man with the wasabi plan to taking over Japan in ah van..to take video back to his home land...
Thank you, Mr. Kaira :)
I love the difference in the engine note between the A series cars & the L series Bluebird (1600). definitely a different tone to them.
We got to hear a Nissan S engine in this one too... which I cannot recall. Lol
Your sound effect makes me want to check the door, argh xD
Hahahaha! Sorry. The exact same thing happened to me when I was listening to the D1GP stream the other weekend. Lol
Hi Daniel-San, love the video!!!
Hey. Thanks for watching :)
nice one Dan
Thank you :)
B310 PARADISE
Yeah. Though a low-ish turnout overall, 310's were well represented.
So ULTRA COOL
Thanks, Andrew
I'm a bit late to this video but getting to looking at old Datsuns as my old man had 4 brand new in the 70s & 80s , 1sr a 70 J reg 180SSS , L reg 72 240 Z , 76 kenmeri C110 240KGT & V reg C210 Skyline 240KGT in the UK the Kenmeri 240kGT wasn't badged up as a Skyline like the C210 generation. With our weather there is non left sadly.
Cool line up. Sorry to hear they rusted away
The king of Japanese rust,mr d'oo'g and UA-cam don know he'sm my homie,better know as mr watabi😂😂😂
The locals do call me Wasabi-san ;-)
Hello Daniel!
Here in CH lots of E-cars are sold and in some decades the regular cars won't be sold. What about in JP?
These e-cars are hardly heard when they are driving on the road. Is JP ready for the change?
Thank you very much for sharing your great video with us.
I'm sure. I only show old cars, but old cars are very, very rarely seen. The far majority of cars I do see are hybrid, and the very economical "Kei car".
cool :)
Thank you :)
What parts do they use to lower the sunny chassis?
Is it leaf spring in the rear and strut up front with lowering springs?
I'm pretty sure the UA-cam comments section is not the best way to find the answers you're looking for. (Genuine advice.) Try Google, "How do I lower my Datsun?". Also, go to car shows and ask owners of lowered cars how they did it. If you still want to try UA-cam, again try searching for 'How to lower car" videos
I have 2door 310 with 1.5 engine. I love it but it is hard to find parts for it.
It's a sad fact for any car of that age that parts are hard to find.
@@wasabicars in finland you can get lot of basic parts for old datsuns and corollas because they were very common here but if you want some power parts you can only get them for corollas. I have searched months to get manifold for sidedraft carbs without results :D
I too live in **BEEEEEEEEEEEEP*
But seriously, guy I know just picked up a Datsun 310. And wouldn't you know it there's one in the video!
It was a massive swear word. Lol. Several 310's in the vid of course. I just emphasize that to highlight the complete absence of 210's. :(
@@wasabicars Never seen a 210 state side, but the Datsun's were only popular in the Z car variety. I think I've only seen 1 or 2 510's. It's been kind of weird the last 24 hours. Bought a Porsche Boxster and then have ran into so many Porsche 911 GT3's (a dream car of mine). Then run over to cars and coffee to find a 310, come home to edit some photos and sure enough while I'm editing and watching your video bam! 310! Pretty interesting 24hrs!
Beautiful video and cars Daniel! Is the mask a mandatory there? Thank you!
They say to wear it, and people do. If you don't, I don't believe you're breaking any laws. It's a country of people that considers others (basically, and certainly in this instance), so everyone does. When I'm on the way to work, home, or at the shops, I don't thing I'd see more that a couple un-masked people per week.
@@wasabicars woow😅 very intetesting, thank you Daniel😉
Did you saw the video of noriyarõ JZX100 burnt down to the ground😢
I definitely did, but after shooting this video. Very sad
Amazing cars.. checkout the corolla I spotted a few days ago on my channel
Thx :)
Show some isuzu bellets
I'm afraid I haven't been up close and personal with one for a while. Do a search of "WasabiCars Bellett" though, because I have put a few videos up of them
