surpip Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 (edited) You know you own a Datsun when people ask you about it and spell it Dotson, Datsin, Dotsun, Porsche. You know you own a Datsun when youve spent 12K on parts/tools for you car but your 7,000 miles away.

KROz Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 (edited) You know you own a Datsun when you search all of the craigslist locales within 1500 miles and spell it Dotson, Datsin, Dotsun, and Porche, just in case the poster of an ad made a mistake.

Two80z4me Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 You know you own a datsun when you get asked if it has a v8 because your l28 is running incorrectly... You know you owna datsun when you'd rather drive it to school than the new tundra you just bought... (truth, happend 3 years ago when the z was stock) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redneck1545 Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 (edited) You know you own a datsun when you've done everything from fred flinstoning, drag launches, and high g-corners all in a stripped unibody sitting on a rotisserie just hoping the thing doesnt flip upside down with you still inside...but you physically couldn't do any more work on her until you took her for a "test drive" Edited January 12, 2012 by redneck1545 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(truth, happend 3 years ago when the z was stock) Or when you live in GA everone assumes it has a v8 because that is what the one their cousin drove had in it. Don't even get me started. They either think it is a porsche "Porsh" or they know it is a z and automatically assume v8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony D Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 When you think nothing of calling the special number at the port to have another container delivered to contain the expanding hoarde of parts/donors for those projects down the road... Or of having a nice chat with the special dedicated lady (Faviola) at the container sales department when she calls to ask about your last trip and how things are going, and by the by, do you need another container yet?

luseboy Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 You know you own a datsun when your hands are never clean, even after using 3 applications of fast orange. You know you own a datsun when every single time you walk in to a parts store or hardware store you always wind up walking out with some sort of penetrating oil and a degreaser product. You know you own a datsun when all the cans of penetrating oil in your garage are empty, you also know that you just finished un-installing half of your suspension at this point. You know you own a datsun when you contemplate between buying food or buying a rust converting product. You know you own a datsun when hybridz is before facebook on your google chrome most visited sites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neotech84 Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 You know you own a Datsun when it has been on jack stands longer than on the wheels. When your wife/ gf starts sending YOU pics of every one she passes. You see a random car part and start thinking how you could "make it work".......

Leon Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 You know you own a Datsun when it has been on jack stands longer than on the wheels. When your wife/ gf starts sending YOU pics of every one she passes. You see a random car part and start thinking how you could "make it work"....... This man speaks the truth!!! I love how my fiancee gets excited about seeing them now and tries to differentiate between the different models! She took a picture of an orange Fairlady a few weeks ago because she "knew I would be excited." BTW, do jackstands wear out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KROz Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 When your wife/ gf starts sending YOU pics of every one she passes. When your ex wife/girlfriend still sends you pictures of everyone she sees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surpip Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 You know you have a Datsun when on a nice summer day when you have a choice of a sport bike or driving your Z you chose the latter and deal with sweating you’re a$$ off and a overheating motor.
