Looks awesome G-Tech!

Beautiful paint!

I just had these wheels custom made using old school SSr XR4Z centers and new 17" barrels - three piece.

Thank-you sir!

Yes my car is sitting on coilovers. Rear ET is -13mm

Thanks guys. The wheels are 17x8.5 - Front, 17x9 - Rear. I could have squeezed a 9.5" in the rear but happy with the way with the way they look on the car.

The Datsun is ready to roll! New paint, new wheels, new cooling system, new carpet..just to name a few. My twenty year (20) project...yes I've had it that long.

Thanks guys! It does look "complete" with the hood - no argument there.

Houston's finest really dig it!

Resurrecting an old thread!

Running out of room, so thinning down my model collection. Many of these are no longer in production so are quite collectible, Many of the plastic builder kits (Fujimi, Tamiya etc) I bought when I visited Singapore over 20 years ago, and were never offered for sale Stateside. All these models are new and have never been built and 100% intact including all the assembly instructions, many still have the original plastic wrap on them. No damage whatsoever. The Porsche models are all diecast metal (1:24 scale). Each model is $15 each, buy two or more and I'll throw in some additional car swag (hot wheels, brochures, literature etc - what ever I can fit in the box and find). Shipping is based on your zip and will be FedEx ground.

Finally finished this project in Spring after a few years of dilly dally...other benefits...17lbs drop in weight. Approx 2" shorter:

Hi Ross - Nice to hear from you and hope all is well. Thanks for the compliments on my old roadie. I will definitely look seriously into a Carbon framed bike this year, the weight of yours is remarkable as I am sure I have about 5 or so more pounds on my bike. If I am down in your neck of the woods I will certainly like to tag along on a group ride (probably towards the rear of the group..laughing!). Cheers. Yasin

Rossman - That Propel road bike is way cool...how much does it weigh? I am also in Houston. I ride an older Cannondale R700, but looking for a replacement this year with the hopes of landing on a Carbon frame bike.

Similar to Bo, I have an ETX-30L in my supercharged V8 project but keep it on a tender to avoid deep cycling it. I find I get about 2-3 years out of them partially due to to Houston weather being really hard on batteries.

Guys - On my daily driven 1988 Mazda 323 GT (245,000 miles), I recently replaced the rear wheel bearings - both sides. It went smoothly and one side is perfect while the right is certainly more audible at low speeds and when loaded like taking a corner quickly. I decided to dismantle everything tonight and I discovered that the spindle had "burn" marks on the surface and also on the bearing as well. The spindle is fortunately not damaged and I am positive I can take some sand paper to remove the burn / friction marks. I would appreciate any thoughts and advice as to why this happened and hoping its a bearing tolerance issue? I ordered a new set of bearings tonight. Thanks!! Pictures:

Interesting post...and something that I have experimented with. Gary - So is the ETX-30L a good automotive choice compared to the like Braille?

Pictures of my car taken last weekend at Mayday Garage's Japanese Nostalgic Meet. This one is my favorite:

Someone's Supra was at PowerFab?

I smile every time I see Tim post!
