go to the thread just above this one, its called i-6 exaust clips err something, everyone has listed there stuff, and posted vids of there cars, thatll be a good base line to start from. then pm the member for more info.

ill get one, but brings me back to my earlier question, how to weld a round tube into a square hole, and make it look nice. expander?

i got my hand caught between the fuel rail, and the valve cover, with no tools within reach. my dad ended up removing the valve cover some time later.

the glass pack makes the car bark, and kind of will help as a pre-muffler. it wont really smooth things out, but will change the note a bit and make it a nano quieter.

any pix of the 1979 #33 around, other than the usual boring ones from the usual google searches. and what color do they call the red and blue. any ppg paint codes anyone?

super trapp must be cleaned all the time as well. they seem to get carboned up and dont flow too well.. they use the same kind of setup on harleys and other mc's.

thanks for the suggestion, this is the kind of creativity im looking for. so pop rivet eh. hmmm did you recess them into the rear lip to keep the rear lip as thin as possible? im trying to keep the rear very thin so it meets up to the the side of the car with little mods, or sticking out further than the cars body

nice work on the car! mine was very bad, my whole rockers and quarters were missing along with my floors and frame rails. my fenders also got replaced. i really saved my car from the wreckers. most ppl woulda crushed it. that would be a dream to work on. keep up the pix and updates!

thanks, they really should have studs on the rear of the wing simmilar to the other mating surface. my wing never came with instructions as i bought it used (never installed) so whats everyone else do?

can i have this question deleted, ive asked it in the ign. elec. section hoping for more help.

hey guys wondering how everone else mounted there whale tails. i got the the low pro one from msa. it has studs sticking down only on the top of the hatch surface. so how should i attach the bottom lip part with. i dont want bolts sticking out the back, so was kinda thinking resin, but would it bond and be strong enough. please keep in mind im smoothing it in and dont want it to look "tacked on"

can i get this moved to electrical, im getting nowhere in this section. thx!

hey guys wondering if anyone has put a 82 ecu into a 79 car without turbo. all my searches here end up with turbo swap results. my biggest concern is the altitude switch, where is it on a 82 and is it ness. and the other 4 wire plug. i know one wire goes to the fuel pump relay, but what aboot the others? do they need to be used, or can i just run switched power or ground leads to them. ive been following the haynes wiring diagrams, but the 2 cars look very different when it comes to the wiring part. any help would be appreciated.

i tried this, seems that it would work, i got the calipers, marked sw on the side (these are the wide ones) so im gonna try one day. you are correct aboot the threading thing tho. id say make an offset adapter to maintain bolt diameter

hey whats kersley cost for a full port/ flowbench? zoltan is the local guy in abbotsford, but extemely costly, but he knows his stuff.

well start by if you want turbo or n/a. then how much you have to spend. 300 hp sounds like your gonna need boost! f54 block. and p90/p79 head. start there, best be buying a turbo parts car.

heres mine, its the msa mandrel 2.5" kit with turbo muffler on a n/a z http://s100.photobucket.com/albums/m35/entropy31/?action=view&current=DSCF1398.flv in car sound http://s29.photobucket.com/albums/c282/SHADY280/AUTOCROSS/?action=view&current=AUTOX7.flv http://s29.photobucket.com/albums/c282/SHADY280/AUTOCROSS/?action=view&current=AUTOX6.flv out of car http://s29.photobucket.com/albums/c282/SHADY280/AUTOCROSS/?action=view&current=AUTOX8.flv without muffler at autox, striaght pipe fell off at end. new nickname earned. tink a tinka tink http://s29.photobucket.com/albums/c282/SHADY280/AUTOCROSS/?action=view&current=AUTOX2.flv

blue foam can be bought from home depot. and dont directly touch the resin to white foam, or you end up with brown goo. pink foam is also available, not much difference with blue.

i was running 11.8:1 comp ratio, and have re-used my gasket 5 times, no copper no anything other than spraying it clean. it never leaks and works great, they are made to be re-used. once the rubber wears off, then id use the copper spray. dont ask why ive done it 5 times. it takes me 1 hour to pull the head from running, and 1 more hour back to running again

if you use chicken wire, just form it (cause it moves real easy) hook it together with wire, then once you have the shape, cover both sides with some mat. then smooth and paint, you can also use cardboard as stated above for flat areas, but the wire works well with curves. use a glue gun to get the cardboard to stay put. fiberglass is forgiving if your making something like a custom sub box, it doesnt have to be perfect, thats what bondo is for!

your soldering the side you would normally light the cigarette with, therefore creating a flow through the unit. dont hook a ground up to the lighter center post, it now becomes the "out" flow to the relay, and the stock "in" wire is the power that does the relay switching. i wish i could give ya a diagram, but im not that savy. when the lighter is pushed in, it connects the circuit with the little spring prong in the bottom so ya can start your car, pull it and no power. it probably be best to stop power to the coil and starter, then the crook has 2 things to look for. and its easy to hide in the engine bay harness and make look stock. make sure to use fuses, and solder all connections and heat shrink. dont go cheap or you could poss. get stranded somewhere.

kinda both things are the problem, to get it to transfer power, thats what the soldering is for, it gets rid of the resistor and transfers energy. what size wire did you use? if its for a relay, then 18 gu. is fine, if its anything else size it correctly for the amperage thats is going to flow down it. you prolly had 18 gu, just the resistor in the lighter fried it cause they use 20 amps or so.

the problem was prolly to small of a wire, plus no fuse. the cigarette lighter can be used, first get a spare lighter, solder it up, then make it so that when pushed in, it completes the circuit, when pulled out, no circuit. its a neat way to get it to work, but it is just a big resistor and cannot really transfer load without creating heat.

hey guys there is a guy on ebay in full production of white face guages for the s130's think it costs about 30 bucks usd. he can even custom put anything on them, or build any white face guage for any vehicle. i got a thread going on zdriver, in the s130 section, interior

if your missing or filling the little indents, cutting the indented parts off of a fiberglass part would be very easy, plus it may look better, you will never know till ya try. the gel coat isnt all that important, its more for boats and things close to corrosion. gelcoat actually makes parts heavier, and leaving it off doesnt comprimise anything. make sure you post pix!
