  1. That sounds like a great ride, I wish I got a chance to travel more and ride new spots. We have a website for our local rides, it is www.geoladders.com Jeff
  2. Hey, Thanks for the pics, Thats really clean the way the eyebolts hold the factory belts and the harness. I like your harness bar as well. Do you or anybody else know if the shoulder belts could hook to a really solid strut bar?, or is it simply too high. Does anybody know what the correct angle for the shoulder belts should be. Thanks again for the help, I think I now have some work to do Jeff
  3. You win the $1.00 prize; Correct. Are you a Mountain Biker? I assume you are since you know the trail. Whitting is our lunch ride loop, great fun for a quick hour ride. My office is 5 min away. Do you also ride in the Cleveland National Forest? What are your favorite trails? Good talking to ya this weekend Jeff
  4. Hi Tony, You camera sounds pretty cool and simple. The one I got is called a Viosport 3 http://www.viosport.com/ It plugs into a Sony Handycam to capture full 500 lines resolution in DVD quality. It is defiantly more hassle having to run the wires, but the image stabilization built into the camera really helps. I will try it tomorrow on the side of my car. I want to see how the tires roll over in the corners. Have fun Jeff
  5. Got a new helmet lipstick camera to use on my car during autocross. I couldn't wait to try it, so I put it on my Mountain Bike for a test ride. The video came out out pretty cool. Can't wait to put it on my front bumper for the next practice. Check it out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qCIsYrT5f_w
  6. Good Idea. Here is the Dyno chart from the above setup The headwork on my car is the reason for the timing like it is. I have tried advancing it further with 100 octane and felt no difference. here is a picture of the chambers
  7. Hey, I am sure some of you may not want to share this info, but some of you might find this info helpful to others. Want to share some of your Standalone settings? Me first: Please remember, everybody's car is different, and one persons settings may kill someone else's engine, Please view with care PS I would love to see someone's Turbo Setup and compare it to my NA Setup Jeff L-24+1 NA 10.75: compression MSA Satge 3 cam Electamotive Tec 3 Target AFR Timing Curve VE
  8. Amen!!! The quickest way to ruin your hobby is to make it a business. It has to be for the love of it. The reason good art is so beautiful is that is was done for no other reason but to make the artist happy. Commercial art is usually trying to make everybody happy, and in doing so really becomes a compromise. I know there is a lot of you out there who know what I mean.

  10. Sal At MotorSport Auto ordered me some a couple years back, dont remember how much, but fixed the clunk in my spindles. Jeff
  11. If the seals are double lip, use an Xacto Knife and trim back the outer seal, the inner seal is the one with the spring and removing the outer dust seal sure seems to help. I think it should be OK, anyone else? Jeff
  12. Thanks, Info like the R32 the same as the Z32 5 speed is what I was looking for. Do any of the other models listed use the same trans as the KA
  13. Has anyone seen or heard about these gear sets? Does anyone know what trans in the USA would any of these work with? KA? Z-32?
  14. No plans to sell them, just for my project. Thanks for the comments on the jig. I figure you cant make nice parts without a nice solid fixture. Jeff
  15. The complete front and rear suspension is modeled in Pro-Engineer, as it is always better to get things done right the first time by designing in a 3-d software as opposed to wasting a bunch of metal and time. All the CNC parts are not designed to be easily manufactured (the joy of only wanting to make 1 set) They are all surface machined, so they would be difficult to make manually. PM me and we can talk more. Thanks Jeff
  16. Hi, Thanks for the comments. The uprights and control arms are just 1 off parts, for my personal project. I really don’t sell this stuff as it seems I can never find enough time to simply finish my own car. Both the uprights and control arm are made of 4130 Cr-Mo. I polished all the tubes on the control arms before welding, welded them, and simply clear powder coated them. I will do the upright in semi black. The CV axles are from a 300zx turbo with custom 1 inch shorter axles. They bolt to the same 300zx axle flange. What I did was take the rear bearing hub from the 300zx turbo trailing arms and cut it off. The OD of the hub is about the same size of the ID of the 240 strut hub. So with a small clean up of both parts on the lathe, I inserted the hub and welded it in. What is cool is that I now use the 5 lug 300zx turbo stub axles and bearings, and I offset the hub 20mm outboard, now I can run 5 lug 40mm offset 8.5 inch rims with perfect alignment and no wheel spacers. Sorry if this is a little off subject.
  17. Hey guys, Just saw your discussion on this post and thought you might be interested in my 1pc tubular set-up. Here is some pics Jeff
  18. Actually, I usually work 11 hour days, the trick is no sleep.
  19. Like this.. Pretty easy to make, I also filled my Trans mount with urethane. The gears in the tranny shake alot and rattle at idle now. kinda annoying..
