    RHD conversion planing

    in Fabrication / Welding

    Posted

    Im looking at converting my 240z or getting a later 280zxt and doing a full on tube frame for the front end, maybe the rear too. what i intend to do is get a jdm steering rack off of maybe a suburu and just move the coloum over to the other side of the car, along w/ the peddels and everything else. as for the fire wall, i plan on just cutting a new hole for the coloum and just adding some tubed supports for it. is there anything i missed? Oh, and a custom dash.

    I already searched on here and on google. all i can get is that people have done it, but is there anything i need to know to put a suburu rack in my s30? My rack is worn and has quiet a bit of play in it and i will need one soon. what racks will fit? what mods are needed to make it fit? thx in advance

    Turbo Tom style intake/exhaust

    in Fabrication / Welding

    Posted

    I am going to be getting a turbo in a trade this week(summit racing seats for a turbo). I plan on building a turboTom style setup. im going to use the flange from a vg30 exhaust mani for the turbo flange. I was wondering if someone could help me by telling me an idea of what size of pipe to use for the intake/exhaust runners, the main intake tube. i plan on making the exhaust like the intake w/ a WasteGate on the end of it. what size pipe should i use for this? thanks in advance. i will take lots of pics when i get started.

    limited slip?

    I know that a open diff will spin both. but it was to my understanding that open diffs will only spin 1 tire in a burnout. all my friends w/ trucks, and a friend with a old mustant w/ IRS spin 1.

    I know that the 240 doesnt come with lsd from the factory, it doesnt have cv's or a finned cover on the diff. but when i spun my tires, both spun. much like positrack. whats the deal? is there a way to tell what kind of diff. is in the car w/o opening it? is this normal?

    The pipe wasnt hot enought. when i hit the switch and dumped the throttle, it sounds like a backfire w/ a whooshing sound over it when it shoots the flame. it has NEVER backfired out the tailpipe since ive had the car. just through the intake. what would cause that btw?
