  1. Soda blasting wont harm the machine marks. If its ok to use on the bottom of million dollar yachts to remove scum and such with out harming the gel coat im pretty sure its ok for your wheels
  2. I had wondered what happened to this build. Glad to see it hasnt been abandoned.
  3. That still the same GS you where working on when I was down there??
  4. Awesome rick. Purely awesome. I cant wait to see you get everything running. I hope it doesnt take to long!!
  5. Its easy to do but are they case hardened?? I havent messed with the lash pads on the l series yet but I know that in a pinch i have taken a piece of glass and some 1000 grit sand paper and sanded down shims for a motorcyle before with good results. You have to have micrometers to do this obvously and you have to keep checking for squareness and to make sure your not wearing one side down more than the other. figure 8's is what ive found to work the best. Also make sure you do it wet.
  6. I love it!!! Now Id do something like that just to go to a muscle car show and hear people bitch about how i ruined a classic American muscle car. Still I love it. Reminds me of fast and the furious tokyo drift where they put the RB26?? into the classic mustang. The classic car guys where in an uproar over it.
  7. Ill just step up on this one and tell ya to search. Its all been covered NUMEROUS times. Try checking out all the stickies on all the sub forums.
  8. I think I saw a picture of a few of them once. A few gnoses??
  9. Turbo pistons and NA pistons have different ring groves. Thanks though... And my dad could actually stop by and get it if it was correct. I grew up in newton. Was always in wichita.
  10. Hey I am rebuilding a spare l28et block i have and i need one piston. Rod no rod it doesnt matter. Just let me know. Thanks.
  11. LOL I just hadnt seen it. Im not on as much as I used to be. I work all the time and then the rest of my time is going into getting another project running that i picked up last week. Oh and then i still need to rebuild a zxt motor for my car as I'm running on 5 cylinders at the moment lol.
  12. LOL I guess its nice to be imitated lol And you succeeded in making me laugh
  13. Hey Derek its looking amazing. Id have to say i would run your injector harness a little different also. You could hide it much better. I think i saw your relay board over by your battery in one of the pictures. You should try to run the harness under the manifold and back to the fire wall and into the hood latch brace and then to the relay board. Ive redone my injector harness this way since you've seen it and it looks so much cleaner. Obviously my relay board is under the drivers inspection lid but you get the idea. I really think you will like the look of it with out those wires there.
  14. Make sure you have the correct throw out collar in there also. I think the turbo clutch takes a thinner one than the 260 does. I had that problem. Smoked my first clutch because of it.
  15. Dont have your car computer controling it yet?
  16. My 260 tach did that when i first got my car. It turned out to just be a bad tach.
  17. Ive got one. It came off of a 280zxt. Idk if that makes a difference. It was on a spare motor i just bought. It appears to be in good shape. I dont have a picture right now(its over at my friends garage). Ill try to get a picture if I go over there though.
  18. Here is what i did when i was still running my e88 one of mine actually fell out luckily I noticed my oil pressure drop immediately and started looking. I took mine compleatly apart and cleaned it REALLY well with acetone. I then took jbweld and welded the whole piece back together. It held to the day i took it out. I probably put 10k on it like that. Not saying its the best but if your going to do it make sure you get it clean and get all the oil residue off before you try.
  19. Im pretty sure its the same one.
  20. They are apparently a very efficient cooler. My friend is an rx7 guy and he says that the guys that try to bling up there cars by adding an aftermarket oil cooler that there oil temps go up. I have one sitting in my storage unit. I need to get it cleaned out and then plumb it in.
  21. If your getting that much orange peal you need to thin it out more about 50/50
  22. Im not saying your wrong but ive never seen an injector that needs the polarity right. If you could give me an example that would be great. When i redid mine on my stock harness I didnt worry about it and it worked fine.
