  1. I looked at one of these arp wings at a local snows auto (performance/audio/etc) and it was mounted "backwards" on the display stand.. I think the small tip of the vertical planes points forwards. Have you looked at vg's? From what I read on the wind tunnel testing that was a good pair. (aluminum wing and vgs)
  2. You can always just get the engine enamel. 500 degrees
  3. Well both the n42 and n47 didnt have webbing. Some n42s didnt have egr some did. But I think the n47 was only egr'd. Not sure which years the n42 was egr and not egr. I know that some 75's had it if not all...
  4. Wow, sorry man. That sucks. Hopefully it didnt do damage...
  5. BULLLLLL!! Really? Try again, or click on the link in my sig for some helpful info. Their are a ton of threads on this. Search "na turbo" "turbo swap" "l28 turbo". Read the sticky posted above. Also what head, if you want to run much boost youll need to get a p90 to lower the compression. This also means you can use the stock exhaust turbo manifold. You can use almost any intake, you just need to make sure you have the proper vacume bungs. Also if you run the stock turbo intake youll need to plug the pressure relief valve (if you run much over stock).
  6. Just file a dispute with paypal within the 45 day limit and get your money back. Dont wait more than 45 days or your screwed.
  7. Would you let her drive your car? Im saying no.
  8. Whyd she park in the middle of the street?
  9. Well Ive seen the picture mentioned. People have also cut down the stock console (if your is cracked, cut in front of the crack. You can make a plug on the end out of fg smooth it all out repaint it. (member jackhammer) Or remove it completely and as mentioned have a seemless piece of carpet across the tunnel. Another member made on out of wood that just extended the stock dash strait down to the tunnel. He incorporated speaker and a deck into it. Looked alright but it was made out of wood...
  10. The question wasnt what is "a" angle, it was what is the critcal angle where it goes from always increasing to increasing/decreasing.
  11. Yeah almost everyone thought it was 45 at first because it seemed so simple but we actually endeed up getting an answer that we think is right and its about 63 degrees. It had to do with a semi circle with radius r which is the x length of the trajectory. We had to fit a trajectory like the above blue lines in side that semicircle with only one point touching, the end impact point. If the trajectory went outside the semicircle then we know that it was a longer distance away from the origin so it had to decrease back to r the x length travelled.... so we had a system of equation for a hyperbola, took the derivative solved at 0, found a ratio of sides arctan and we got an angle... hopefully its right..
  12. Between 0 and 90. There is an angle at which the distance I speak of is always increasing. 0 Anything angle less then that theta angle the distance will always be increasing, anything more then theta and the distance will increase/decrease. The distance from the origin to the top of the tallest trajectory is more than the distance from the origin to the landing spot. Then if you look at the trajectories at smaller angles, the distance from the origin to a point on the blue line is always increasing. We need to find the angle that this becomes true. It seems logical for the angle to be in the 45-70 degree range, but we have no way to find the actual critical angle theta.
  13. No. We are trying to find the angle of launch that the distance between (0,0), the origin, and any point on the trajectory will always increase I was using the example of 75 degrees to show that the distance between you the thrower (origin) and the rock on its trajectory path can increase and then decrease. (since the distance from you to the ball at the top is more than the distance between you and the landing spot) Im not talking about x or y distances but the hypotenuse of those, the square root of x^2 + y^2. You get it now?
  14. If you throw something at about 75 degrees the distance you are away from it (distance from origin to the point ON the trajectory path) at the peak height will be less than the distance from the origin to the landing point.
  15. No we are trying to find at what angle it will always be increasing and getting further away, it cant go away from you and then start to get a bit closer, something you get with an angle close to 90. When you have a angle closer to 0 the distance from the origin to a point on the trajectory will always be increasing. Its not how you describe it.
  16. Well me and about a 1/3 of my class have been working on this problem for our takehome, been at it for 4 hours. The question is what is the critical angle to the horizontal at which a stone can be thrown and always be moving away from the thrower. This means the distance from the origin to any point on the trajectory will always be increasing. We need to find the angle theta where this becomes true. Weve been working on all sorts of ideas, none seem to work but with a little internet searching Ive found some people saying its about 70.83 degrees but there is no proof, what we need. The tests due tomorrow at 9:30 so we really need this soon its worth alot of points!! Please any help is appreciated, I know theres alot of engineers here, someone must know or have ideas. Thanks
  17. I wonder how ricey these would look if they were to be painted and riveted to the rear...
  18. Deleted... btw did anyone see the old monster gargage where they put the 350z drivetrain in one of these to make a "drift car"?
  19. #1 - Daily Driver ISF or M3 or... #2 - All Corners WRX STI (WRC Version) #3 - High Speed Heaven Hennessy Twin Turbo Viper #4 - Mid or Rear R8 GT3 Spec Version #5 - Off the Beaten Trail Wrangler Unlimited #6 - Track Time Mosler #7 - WILD CARD Daytona Coupe (original?? ) #8 - Garage Queen My 78 Z
  20. I have a set of 260 carbs Im selling... pm me.
  21. What year car do you have? I know the later large strut housings for the 280z are really easy to pull out.
  22. http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?p=947692#post947692 Look at this! Jeez... thats just annoying.
