  1. I made it so that the engine is level side to side, but i noticed that the lower oil pan is slanted, so it's lower on the passenger side. Does that need to be level? making the engine block tilted over?
  2. Here are the most recent pictures of i guess i can call it....project DIY...because i'm trying to do everything possible myself . Partly because i want to save money, and partly because i really like making stuff, and i enjoy learning how things are made. specs, ideas, plans, descriptions, more pics to come
  3. there was a thread about custom tailights a while back.
  4. I made my engine mount! MOCKUP PICS!
  5. I finally got to visit them today, when classes resumed, [ i was on break] but they were closing, so i'll have to go back probably tuesday. If anyone wants any questions answered let me know.
  6. You can die from breathing in too much zinc fumes. be careful. I'd use uncoated steel if I were you.
  7. http://www.alsacorp.com/ these guys sell that paint,a long iwth many other interesting effects.

  9. Check the stickies at the top, search for coilovers, theres been at least 1 thread on the newer version, and you could email Dave, of Arizona Zcar.
  10. why dont you continue in the thread you already started?
  11. thats cool! i second the idae of the "kills".. show all the races you win.
  12. I got a craftsman mechanics tool set from my dad, so i dont have to keep borrowing his tools!
  13. what about gutting the SU's and putting some injectors in there? not exactly optimal... but kinda cool
  14. I didn't buy any 45's i just cut up a 90, although i didn't check, its probably cheaper. I used 12 90's for the header, and i'm going to use maybe 1 more to make the wastegate tube coming off the collector. ive never thought of using a reducer to make a collector, but i have seen the boxed collector like that guy with the castrol WRC celica remake did. the tube collector i would only reccomend if you got a really good saw,and make some solid jigs, or if you dont mind doing it over a few times.... my saw kept on flexing when i got close to the end where you're cutting the pipe on it's side.. mine doesnt fit up the best , so i'm going to attack the inside with a dremel later. btw its sch40 316/316L Stainless steel pipe. most use 304, because 316 is supposed to be more expensive. but for some reason its cheaper on mcmastercarr, and 316/316L has better corrosion resistance at higher tempatures so it'll stay looking nice longer.
  15. almost. i'm using the 1 1/4" 316/316L 45555K514, [they're about 11 bucks each.] because they matched the height of the exhaust port. but a few days after i bought them i found out that most people go with 1 1/2 for better flow. I really dont have any idea.. but i think it'll be allright.

  17. 3 down 1 to go, but unfortunately i have to wait for more bends to come from mcmastercarr. its amazing how if you've got 3 90* weld EL's, you can get them to point in pretty much any direction. this is exciting.
  18. black dragon auto aka victoria british has them. I'm not familiar with the quality though
  19. a little progress. i still need to order a couple more bends... all the work was done on my scrap sr20 head doesn't fit up perfectly in there, so hopefully there's something i can do to make it work. my original plan was to have a long collector and have the wastegate tube come off at a pretty shallow angle. that would be ideal, but im settling for something like this.
