Sould have tought about that... thanks.
The idea of powdercoating the whole shell was, that I'd be sure all the seams and nooks and crannys would be filled and encapsulated, thus giving it a better shield against elements...
Would I be right in saying so or the benefits would not outweight the trouble of doingthis in the first place.
If it is a good idea, could I powdercoat the thing and then do the bondo and everything and then paint over it???
Wow, that's really cool, I've allways had this fantacy of powdercoating my whole car, I think you got a headstart on me.
Anybody knows of a place with an oven big enough to put a car in???? lol
Won't work at all, they are not the same type of paint and therefore won't mix.
OTM: Look's good but... I really liked the old 2 color you had on it, was very unique and to my tastes, well executed.
So, they are mounts... at first glance they looked like pushrods to move the coils so that's why I was confused. I hav'nt slept mutch these last few days.
:lmao:Good one.
I'd say that I'm just a CAR guy, Toyota, Nissan, Toyosan, Nissota, V8, 4 banger, Turbo, N/A... anything will do the job, just as long as it's cool.
My dad had a white Celica when I was born so, it has a sweet spot in my heart cause, all those 10-10ths rides my dad gave me in that thing are probably responsible for me loving to go fast all the time. The NICKEL-DIME is also a really cool car, I owned a wagon one for a short while but I got an offer I could'nt refuse. (Like 4 times what I had payed for it) I guess I'd have to have both, this way I sure will be happy. I think I lean towards the TOYTOY though.
Any ideas on what his reserve'll be???????
That would make sense, I have a bunch of pots & pans made out of this stuff, (everyone has heard of "clear vision" cookwear?) it can go on the range, in the oven and the dish washer + I can't count the times where I dropped the thing on the ceramic floor only to pick it up and put it away in it's place. It is really resistant to abuse.
Yeah, it is BLING but... it also DOES actually have a purposful function as was stated a few posts above mine. + I think it does kind of look good for ricey stuff.
I don't think you need to do this. The thick grey wire from the "goofy lookin' " 8 prong INJ. plug you are refering to goes right to (trough 2 splices) pin 45 "main IGN. power" so, I guess that in the series 2 they powered the injectors differently than series 1.
Here's a link to my tread where I asked a few questions and got a few answers too.http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?p=725553#post725553
P.S.: please note that in the diagrams, ECCS relay is marked as PIN 3-5 being coil & 1-2 being swiched pwr, THIS IS AN ERROR, as when you look at the relay itself, it's marked as the other way around. I checked the relay with a battery and jumpers and found out that every connection is good on the diagram, exept that they mixed the PIN numbers.
For your information, IT ALLREADY LOOK SICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
: What are those red thingies on the side of your heads? Are these coils? Looks like it withe the MSD tags on them. If so, what is the small movable arms on the side of them???
Keep it up.
Good idea.
My little brother is a computer freak, The other day, he showed me his new
computer he built himself, it's got chromed "magwheels" fans AND it's LIQUID cooled trough transparent silicone hoses. + he has a bunch of "black light" LEDs in there.
My first reaction was: "Wow, let's go to the GM dealer and get some of that black light glowing orange coolant.
We replaced the water he had in there with the coolant and let me tell you, it REALLY look's nice.
P.S. GM orange coolant is MADE TO GLOW under black lights so you can easily find leaks with the same equipment you'd use to find an A/C leak.
