Hey 7 day work weeks keeps you out of trouble during site-seeing expeditions!

That's supremely impressive besting a gt3.

Tony D, you're right, the Cartech Plenum is probably closer to 4x3. As I recall it was not square though.

A friend of mine had the original Cartech kit. IIRC the plenum was virtually an empty box inside. Your 2x4 extrusion would practically be identical.

That was professional grade! Nice work.

Very resourceful. Kewl.

I'm dyin here, utbube is down (

Decent idea for those within driving range, otherwise shipping would be kind of expensive.

+1 for gated shifter

"lol if the world record donuts is 22? how did he not just beat it?" "thats a pretty neat thing he can do, but honestly... when is he ever going to use that skill in life everyday situation. lmao." Yeah, these two I found more entertaining than the video haha.

Wax and grease remover all the way. Blast all crevices real good with portable air or vacuum it completely. If you don't get all the dust out of the nooks and crannies, it may come back to haunt you when you shoot it, as it will blow back out onto your fresh shiny coat. You haven't told us how you intend to paint it... airless? roller? Careful how you ventilate. Depending on what the volatiles are, you may be blowing yourself up! If in doubt, better to positively ventilate with some furnace filters taped onto box fans to keep out large dust balls/insects (and isolates to an extent the fumes from the electric motor), blow fresh air into the makeshift paint booth with screens inwards and a vent hole opposite with furnace filters venting out too. That way you don't draw volatiles through any electrical arcs which may ignite flammable fumes. Lastly, you may consider renting a paint booth altogether. Your results will be much better (visibility from over spray is greatly reduced!) less crap in the air, dry shop air... good lighting. etc. The many toxic chemicals in modern polyurethanes are meant to be used with expensive fresh air respirators, not the $40 Home Depot air purification kind. The health hazard is cumulative. That is, after a couple exposures many years ago, not much solvent makes me itch and break out and get dizzy now a days. (I know when you're young you don't think about stuff like that). I knew a auto body pro who had to find another profession because it was killing him, he was only 26 or so. Oh and most those vapors are transdermal too --You soak it up through your skin. Ok big brother rant over. Given the choice, painting by roller sounds very intriguing.

I drove a 91 Miata for over a decade. Underpowered, low cargo volume, but fun and very tough. I beat it pretty hard and it kept on ticking. Bullet proof little car. I still miss it. If you get one, the 94 and up with a Torsen limited slip are the ones to get.

That is so freaking cool! Can't wait for the production run

I saw a much simpler design that didn't have any fancy brakes or rollers. Both hoops instead of being perfectly round, was a polygon, er... octagon, decagon, whatever... I haven't seen it in action, but it looked as if you'd roll the car, lift and scootch it over one end at a time. Like moving a big log. The flat sides would prevent it from rolling once you positioned it and you could always c-clamp or weld a leg to it that would stop it from rolling. Sorry I don't have a pic. I'd love to make it one of these days when I find the time...

Crazy fast. Congrats!

If it can't be shorted, then it's not worth buying.

Would the detergents in it or other chemicals harm engine internals (corrosive)?

GTR driver was noticeably smoother. I'm starting to like the GTR more and more.

With that kind of performance, I can forget the hideous looks.

I've run about 5 hrs with a teflon liner with no problems. Spray arc is a characteristic of how the molten metal is deposited into the pool vs. short circuiting/ "short arc". As you turn up the juice, provided you have enough amperage, short arcing turns into spray arcing eventually.

_Truly funny LOL

Those are definitely Epsilon's.

280ZForce, where did you source the 4" v-band clamps and flanges?

If it's mild steel the wrap will shorten it's life. Unlike SS which can take the heat.

+1 on that. Hot tanking will eat up an ally head. That's what a machinest told me.
