that threads been stagnant for a wile.... any one know what happened?

theres one at the wreakers with a 2A

Bam

My motor didn't come with one :) does any one know the size, or some were to source them? I'm thinking 4ac? Just that I need it for balancing.

Droped engine off today, hes going to hone the block and call me back next week good or bad :)

pixzorban :)

I've done almost all the body work except the fuel tank (just needs welding and boging) and some more work on the rear guards. Need some advice though, is there any special technique to get the shape defined edge? What do you thing of this attempt?

mmm twins :)

i was in the extact situstion as you. Big issue was were it was going to go, and how its going to interfear with life. My mum got pretty pissed at the pos sprinter sitting in front lawn for a month.

i used to be on a form with heavy blue theme. So I'm used to it. :)

if nick dosnt want them. Ill take em :D

P H A T :D

thats a sweet ride. good luck with the repairs

all you will need is some sokets, hammer and a jack

2nd orbital sander my car has claimed, thank god for POS sanders with 3yr warentys :)

Its not really being that rude, just a reality chek, its pretty basic. It probly work out cheaper if you buy a 82 with a 4age already?

dropping my stuff down to the engine builder next week, it was impossible to take the stuff there due to mum not being home during the day. Any way, est about $375 so I'm budgeting for $400 worst case senario Acid Dip Bore and Hone Balence

then you could just swap all the efi stuff over from the other model.

sweet, publicity good work :D

I'm so sure i replied before o well. You will have to find the problem the hard way, trust me, nothing more painfull than a circut bord with 100 more compents and it dosnt do any thing. Start with the most basic thing you can find see if it working if not keep going untin it 'branchs' were 2 or more other things could be causing it ect. Yes its painfull but it works.

well my choises were either orange, silver or gun metal. Theres already so many orange rollas going around. So silver or gun. But after looking at some ae71's painted in dark colours, for some reason they seem to suit the head lights, soooooo. :P

i think i know which one your talking about The type I'm looking at is the flat type like on 180sx's

hehe thanks yeah carnt wait, ive been working non stop for a week on the body so i can get it in some paint! Just finished stripping 2 door that are ready for paint. Boots stripped and debaged, bonets almost done, roofs done and boged. Still to come, bogging the rear guards. and fixing the tubs... o well better getback to it. Also does any one have any samples of some grey/silver gunmetal paints?

Done. I carnt upload images, so ive just linked them....

For every one who has tried these things are a biatch to get in. I found a rather easy way to replace them. So here it is. What you will need: Hammer Vice 1 1/2" metal tubing Something to brace middle of control Arm (will explain down the track) You're new Bushes Your old control arms The fist thing you will need to do is get the old ones out. This is done simply by leaving them out in the sun for about an hour so there hot to the touch. Then bash the crap out of the small end. You will notice that one is smaller. Now to get your new ones in. These are the items I used for mine. The metal tubing was my old exhaust I still had lying around; it is perfect for pressing in the bush. First push the new bush into the arm as far as it will go. Next cut a section of your 1 1/2" piping so it covers the large end of the bush. Like so Next, place another longer piece of pipe on the other side of the arm, were the bush sticks out. Now place this arrangement into the vice * Make sure the tube does not fowl the bush Now pack the inside of the arm with metal to stop them flexing. When it flex it leads to much complication, as it will get harder and harder to push it in until you're vice brakes....... Now tighten up the vice until the bush is completely in. There you go. Easy :P
