that would be gay, why in the hell do people change the front of the RPS13!!??Lets recap...
S13 Silvia front
S14 Silvia front
S15 Silvia front
R32 Skyline front
R33 Skyline front
240z Fairlady front
...and now someone wants a 510 Datsun front?
Personally, I think the poor car has had more face lifts then Michael Jackson!

iono, i guess im into that whole bringing the old into the new kinda deal... like that new mustang i think it looks sweet... and its the 240szx that gave me the idea.. if some one could photo chop it and make it look clean, thats the only way i would have to think that it doesnt work... it sucks how things look nice in your head, or the idea there of. but when its seen in person.. it just doesnt work...

There is no way in hell the lines of a 240 matches the 510 in any way. If you want to see the supposed "old meets new," look at a Honda Prelude. They use many retro cues, and the car has the proportion of a GT car. Short trunk, long hood. The R34 Skyline looks like the evolution of the old 2000GT. The 350Z has retro cues but is extremely modern. The Ferrari 360 Modena, Ferrari Enzo, Ferrari 456GT all hold design cues back to when Ferrari was just some average dude. Chrysler did lots of your "old meets new" too.
