Watched so many of this guy’s HK movies, never would have imagined he’d be into cars like this.

That bronze/grey is a suprisingly pleasing combination. Honestly this is one of the coolest 510's i think ive ever seen.

Also mad that the Audi was skipped. Makes it even more mysterious….

This guy's taste in cars is amazing, and he seems like such an enjoyable character too.

Props to Daniel for keeping the L Series in the car. That engine won a Trans Am championship in it's day. Such a beautiful 510!

Best bit is watching Daniel Wu nerd out over everything. You can really hear his passion. Love that we get to see this side of him, he seems so relaxed and real, and totally love the build.

Badlands was fire but I respect this man 10000 fold now

Literally my dream 510.

Can't get enough of this 510. Watching it one more time.

From Penang, Malaysia: Had a 1970 Nissan 1600 SSS before. The most powerful twin-carb Japanese 1.6l car then & the rear suspension was the best ever made. I lowered the springs for better cornering and stability. Loved it.

This 510 is built with nice taste. Absolutely love it

I must admit I had no knowledge of Daniel Wu before the Hoonigan interviews and now can honestly say I am a fan, sir.

I enjoyed watching this and listening to his English at the same time.

I like the fact that Daniel is a superstar in Asia but he buys cars from his heart and passion, just like Jay Leno....... not some crazy million dollar cars, but simple classics

A professional actor, director, producer........ then a pro level petrol head. This guy can do anything he wants. 👍🏻

This is better than any singer will ever be. This 510 has wabi sabi. Singers lack wabi sabi because their design ethos is married to the idea that emotional symmetry is perfection.

Oh man this takes me back. About 20 years ago I had a mint Datsun 200b SX with a worked L20b, the carbs were massive and the induction noise was incredible. I miss that car so much.

Gorgeous 510 ,the attention to detail is impeccable, I absolutely Love your car Daniel!!

Danny Wu seems like a completely awesome guy. Very chill; very smart.

We finished our Datsun 510 a couple of years ago, we installed the Nissan SR20DET engine where on pump gas we are able to produce 325 horse power and with racing fuel capable of 450 HP. when you compare the horse power to weight this little 510 has become equal to many supercars on the road today. This has now taken the place of my Hayabusa motorcycle as now I have four wheels on the ground and as exciting and fun to drive as a performance street bike. This at a cost of $20,000 and a lot of time, well worth it.

Daniel Wu has great taste in cars

And he got the off white Dunks for an extra little flex, damn

Hey, Big appreciation for Daniel Wu's taste, and his ability to stay "on task" and giving the perspective, and specific thoughts that compel him towards this conclusion. Of course, thank you Mr Cheng for allowing time, and "getting in there", with his camera, and exposing the perspective, and angles that truly allows us the ability to see, especially in the application of newer technologies, to basically antique vehicles, and improves the performance, safety, or other achievements that some of these owners, and especially builders, and fabricators choose to incorporate in their vehicles, and even in some cases, choose to exclude or modify, as they chase the benefits they seek, as they also express their own artistic taste, and creative fabrication talents, purpose built inclusion, all while maintaining many of the original aesthetics that inspired our appreciation, and the connects us to our past, or at least mine, and in a time more than half a century ago, and the pleasures associated with racing, and competition as we opened our minds, and allowed ourselves the pursuit, and experience that could only be found by pushing our own abilities, combined with the huge amount of experimentation and studies that all automotive manufacturers seemed to have as their own motivation, in that time before computers, or dyno's existed, and could only be determined by the results that were achieved on the track, or in competition. A "car guy" has appreciation for the gains we've all made in this past century. As we move forward into the future that awaits us I wish you all success, and improved quality in your life, and the result that exceeds your highest hopes. If I may be so bold as to offer a suggestion, or observation as you produce future films, or spotlight additional vehicles, keep in mind that each of us has our own tastes, appreciations, and see certain things that perhaps others may not agree with, or feel. My only offering towards helping the quality of your creations, or possibly could improve the pleasure we viewers might experience, is the limitation of what appears as oddly placed, and overly stated, or discussed appreciation for things, that you appear to use as blowing smoke, or for whatever reason you choose to go on, and on, and on about, while dropping the ball on considerably more substantial, and has significantly more relevance, and never even gets touched on as you take the time to discuss, in great detail, things you find to use to expose yourself as a car guy, flirt, or whatever drives you to express your admiration for a sticker on a window, the hand written identification of a button written with a sharpie that allows a driver, owner, or fabricator may use to achieve the desired result. Please forgive the passive-aggressive appearing, nature of my comment, and consider the purpose for my criticism, as you realize our understanding of your opinion is not a perspective that is necessary, or appreciated, especially when so many things that would drastically improve our perspective, or address more masculine, performance based, or consideration for fabrication, or significantly desired discussion about details that never occur to you. As Daniel objectively, and quickly addresses his experiences, perspective, and the necessity to answer another dumb question, perhaps you could stay "on task", allow a story to unfold on its own, and concentrate on the details your camera offers as our only perspective, while limiting your own questions as you educate yourself, and allow us to feel the appreciation that is inspired, and not relevant to that you feel, and becomes a nuisance.

This has the absolute best looking front end I have ever seen on a 510. The car looks great

Daniel Wu is the definition of cool. My dad was driving a 88 911 when he met my mom. She wrecked it 5 years later driving in the rain. I bet some of you could have guessed, his mom crashed a 88 911? Must have been driving in the rain.

My first car was a 1969 510. I remember it would take a shit kicking & always kept going!!!

I didn’t even recognize the name Daniel Wu. Loved the show he was on and love that Datsun 😍

Man, warms my heart to see such attention to detail on such a car. Any car really, just so much love here.

I always appreciate Daniel's down-to-earth attitude and appreciation for the Datsun breed-- thanks for a great walk around on this spectacular 510!

Daniels explanation of how he came up with the name was so amazing! Daniels like the coolest guy ever.

Such a lovely car; he seems to get it, the man is a driver👍👍

Only the most astute and tasteful child would have chosen Cassis Red. Well done, Mr. Wu!

Ohh, really love this car rather than the Porsche, Mercedes, and even the Honda S800 The slickest, tidiest car ever! And he's put his attention to details so much. It's not a restoration, it's more than that. Respect!

Daniel, Thank You so much for sharing your passion for creating custom cars. I'm originally from Willits (73 yrs. ago) and living in rural Brasil. Your attention to detail makes the project(s) an art form. I enjoy your work and at the same time, makes me long for the "old" days of my car experiences from the early '60s. You are very fortunate and obviously deserve what you are living.

I love the simplicity of that sheet metal hood support brace.

That 510 is absolutely amazing.

Wu just has a taste that is unknowingly badass! I love the Autofocus!

Wow. I have always liked the look of 510's and this one is exceptional. Thank you Daniel for this build and Larry for bringing it to us car fans.

I met Daniel Wu at a gas Station I was doing some work at. First off, he's cool as hell and pretty approachable. He's definitely into cars AND trucks. I saw his truck, didn't know it was him at all. He turns around and BOOM 🤯. We talked a bit about his movies and shows upcoming. First bumped. Dude was chill and I'm happy to have met the guy. I loved into the Badlands.

This thing sounds so healthy!! Wow, what a treat this was for me on so many levels. Love Daniel Wu (Sonny)! Love him more now that he's into 510s!

There is a way to fix the tach bounce with the blinker. I fixed it on my 510. You have to tie the power from the tach to the ignition circuit instead of the blinker circuit.

The design he's thinking of and keeps trying to explain is "timeless"

Made me smile just watching Daniel drive it... it’s so well put together...

My favorite video so far. That is how you build a Datsun!

That was an awesome swap. You’ve Instantly recouped your loss from the money losing Tesla to this appreciating beauty..congratulations ❤

Art.

I had one. Just a great car. I now have an original S4.

I just got this recommended, WTF bro i swear this came out like yesterday, i remember watching it when it came out, time flies, damn

HOLY HELL how do I miss when you guys are LITERALLY in my neighborhood!?!?! WICKED 510. BAY AREA!!!!

I have fond memories of sitting in the back of my dads 1973 white 510 with blue interior in my little car seat at 6 years old. He was so proud of that car. My seat was positioned in the middle of the back so I had a full view of the road. He would take me to the Saturday matinee movies on the Army base to see Godzilla, Ultraman or some other movie. On the way home I would tell him to go fast and we would zoom around the twisty country roads of Kentucky. He always kept it in safe speeds but to a 6 year old it feels like a million miles an hour. The wind in my hair holding my Star Wars X Wing up pretending it was flying through Death Star canyons. Sometimes pretending I was driving with a small stearing wheel he had mounted on my car seat. That car was destroyed along with our home by a flood while we drove our Vega station wagon on vacation. The water actually picked the car up and carried it down river for a while until it hit a bridge. One side was crushed buy the bridge and roof caved in while the other was smashed by trees, lawn mowers, cars and other debris carried in the flood. He used the insurance money to buy a 68 Dodge Coronet that I did not like because I sat so low in my seat I couln't see out.

510's are just so .... I'm speechless beautiful

I will forever see the tanto lines when I see this car!

Daniel really got good taste and passion on the vintage car, I admire him a lot! Wish he will come back to Hong Kong with one of his car😀

I know I am years late but this video is amazing first off secondly the attention to detail on the 510 is insane. I love the build and how subtle it is I have always loved that idea of build design and being timeless simple clean and elegant. I cannot wait to be able to build a car of this statue one day!

I love that it's not swapped. This this is awesome!

agee so much with your conclusion. Daniel seems to be a true car guy. well made video as usual.

Awesome collection!

I was very happy when I heard those carbs 👍👍

Daniel has the best taste in cars. A true Jalop. I love it.

My absolute all time favourite car 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍👌👍👌👍. Love a square car and this is why 😍😍😍😍.

Great looking color. I love it!

Homeboy has good taste.

Wow, I had no idea he was into cars. Daniel Wu is one of my favorite actors.

Remember seeing Daniel on screen for the first time on Gen X Cops! Love that movie.

This was my favorite Autofocus to date. A tastefully done OEM+ 510.

I would check the tach adapter for the bounce in the needle. Mine actually started to go and the tach would start to bounce just before I would loose spark for a few minutes at time. Changed the adaptor and no bounce and spark is good and the 510 good to go.

Interesting thou that he comes from a Design background, thus showing great taste and awesomeness of person...... lovely

keep the great content coming Larry Chen!!!

Daniel Wu is the man. Into The Badlands was amazing.

I got the mini GT kaido house of this version after saw this video. Thanks Larry and Daniel for sharing this gorgeous beast...

I love video on multiple levels... This really made me miss "Into the Badlands" and as a Datsun S30 owner, I really appreciate the 510.

That 510 is beautiful I'm glad you stayed true to the history of that awesome datsun right down L series motor with mikuniz SIMPLY Beautiful.

This car makes me so nostalgic, when my parents met my mother had a white 1600 SSS and my father had a baby blue one in the same trim. My mother's car got written off one morning on our way to church. My dad then bought 2 more during my childhood. Which all sadly sold before i became old enough to drive.

Top notch car and a top notch dude

My dad restored his 510 in 1997 and has had it for 30 years he has had it since 1991

Always been a big fan of the 510!!!

Beautiful car! Great taste! ❤

Holy shit, the sound of the engine. Love it.

What a cool guy

Thank you Larry for all the Datsun content

Sweet car, floods me with nostalgia. I had a four door as my first car, called the Datsun 1600 here in Australia. Man that car was fun, and being a country boy with dirt roads everywhere i needed to go or be the car was punished, it was stock but performed better than anything else on offer! But all good things come to an end and I traded it on a Holden Panel Van for weekends down at the surf club.

That FJ40 looks dope

God the variety in Wu’s collection is so badass

Rad!! Time to build another Dime. Thanks

Watched so many of his movies growing up and thoroughly enjoyed this episode. Awesome car.....sweet sound.

This car is so well done, thank you for this made my day.

Absolutely stunning machine. She's so completely beautiful, well done 💯👌 and that sound 😍 and those Porsche-inspired seats. omg. This is all too much for my blood pressure 😱😍😅 I love how Daniel doesnt pollute his machines with stereos. He builds a car with zero speakers or stereo, that is full enthusiasm right there folks. But of course he is right too, the car has its own sountrack and it puts you in the Zen of the experience. A car like that, every time you drive it is an experience, years later even. Much Respect, Daniel is a true connoisseur 👌

Such a beautiful car. So clean and classy. Awesome!

Nice you were able to find troy. I remember his 510, his welded diff, and ppl drag racing in the east bay area. Great guy... I'll always remember his diff when he has to make a u turn.

I installed those same seats in my 240z, love them.

That car is awesome. I love it.

Gorgeous 510, love it all. Love it that he has the TANTO cali black plate on the garage wall :)

legend of HK cinema

He got a steal for the Toyota for the Tesla 😍😍😍

total class act, car and owner,

love Daniel Wu's car soso much!!!!

BTW, Into The Badlands was my favorite show. I'm geeking out that he's a big car guy aswell.

The chop!!! WOW!!!!

*Mind Blown* @ how much fun that car looks like it is to drive. Tons of detail, lots of humility. Absolutely in line with what a Tanto is. Simple, small, effective. すごい
