My dear son of rajab. If ever there was a candidate for an axe to the gooch this is the one.

from what I can gather he lives up the coast... I think I need to find details so we can go beat him up

God dammit... where is everyone? I feel like i have Martin's disease :)

Sorry mang, researching fun stuff like seam welding and roll cages

also the net here has aids today :D keeps dropping out

Did you guys miss me at all??

Nope :D

Did you guys miss me at all?? I'm on my way to the airport about to get on a plane back to brizzzzzzzz

sup?!

Nope :)

Would like to know more about seam welding.

we fapped over your facebook to keep ourselves busy <3

Pretty much :D

for project alfa?

You know it

+1 <3

Would like to know more about seam welding.

Summary of what I have learned so far:

  • Cage first, then seam weld (cage helps prevent heat warping the metal)
  • Better if it can be on a chassis rig, but failing that, weight should be on the stock suspension points
  • Weld inch on, inch off (solid welding bad)
  • Try to move around a lot when doing it to stop one area copping a lot of heat at once
  • Only do strut tower to strut tower, no point going further forward or back and can in fact make accident damage worse

have not seened. up to episode 8 so far.

can't find episode 16 for download either. it's annoying the crap out of me. got 15, 17 & 18 with no 16 ;)

I'll bring it for you

What do you want to know???

How much? Whats it come with? Where is it? Pics/etc?

    • Also had a look at the Nissan JP website looks like the 400r has a slightly shorter ratio than than the regular V37 3.133 VS 2.937 which from a guy who has driven both 3.69 vs 4.11 ratios in the S15 is bugger all. Seems that the AUTO Z runs the same ratio as the 400R but can't find any info as to if its an open or LSD? More often than not the auto LSD is open
    • Do not replace the power steering lines with this stuff. If it's anything like the Chase Bays stuff it will leak and be worse than stock. The reason why the reservoir is on the LH/passenger side of the car is because that's just where the reservoir was most convenient to fit. Don't overthink this stuff. The intake/cold side of the engine is pretty busy on these cars. And again, the hardpipe is designed to be a janky power steering cooler. In theory you can replace it with a real power steering cooler but that's really only for track use where boiling the fluid is a distinct possibility. Start with the low pressure lines feeding the pump from the reservoir. Make sure there isn't a bunch of junk in the reservoir filter. Be careful to not get ATF all over the engine bay. I hate dealing with ATF spills, you can clean it up and the slightest crevice will still release more oil that can still drip over time. You also want to inspect for leaks before you make a mess and can't tell what happened. Most likely you have a leak somewhere that is allowing fluid out and air in. Failing that it's allowing air in but not fluid out. Only place I can really see that happening is on the low pressure side because the pump will pull a slight vacuum to draw fluid in. Everything after the pump is high pressure or lower pressure, approaching atmospheric by the time it returns to the reservoir.
    • I did a skidpan night at SMSP this week, it was much cheaper than $350. But yeah, you need to slap an LSD in that thing.  I put an OS Giken in the 370Z and it's f**king MARVELOUS even compared to Nissan's viscous LSD. So you're saying it's free now that it's a housing estate? 😂
    • Nah, the car seems to run exactly as it did prior, in saying this it does "seem" to be better down low, like more eager to rev, but that may be 100% placebo effect from intake noise But, I'm not worried about it at all, in the end it is a fairly low compression NA engine that has a well shrouded intake,  if it is getting hotter IAT I cannot notice anything negative performance wise from the seat of my pants thrashing it about on the street or sitting in traffic, so meh, car now now makes induction noise so I'm happy
    • Do you have an IAT sensor? It's worth checking it to see. You may be suprised how little gap you actually need to flood your engine with hot air. (I tape up my airbox for a reason) :p
