  1. ok so i was giving a used hks(i believe) 2mm metal head gasket today(thanks rick!!!!) and well its been used and then was sitting in a box for a while and it needs to be cleaned up. i was thinking of soaking in some acetone or some MEK to dissolve the old copper coat and what not. but then i started to wonder if i could drill out the brass rivets and then clean all the layers and then after they are clean rivet it back together? just wondering if this would be ok or if i should just soak it in something and clean it that way?? well thanks in advance. Jeff
  2. ya gotta go with the clear... just keeping it clean might be a pain..
  3. i have 3 center caps if ya need them decent shape. pm me
  4. its been done there is pictures of it on zcar somewhere. and i hope your not going to be going very far... and getting it out is doable but your gonna need alot of guys and prolly best to take off your rear hatch to get it out i would think..
  5. ok im not great at this stuff but to me it looks like you are causing that vortex on runner 1 cause you have a ramp to start the vortex then you have the bump to turn the air again and then it fallows the curve of the plenum and then the cycle starts over again... so im thinking you either need to change the angle of your ramp... maybe make it smaller... put holes in it ... change the angle, some thing along those lines. another thing im thinking is to completely change the flow and move or maybe even ad another ramp but put it on the outside the plenum thus changing the vertical cyclone into maybe a more twisting motion that might get the air into the first runner better. cause right now it seems to just be swirling around the outside of it and not wanting to go down the hole lol
  6. if im not mistaken there is a company that takes the pistons and heads off of 2 hyabusa's and makesa v-8 out of them with a new crank and a new block and then puts the pistions and rods in and slaps on the heads... im almost positive i saw it at a show at bike week in daytona a few years back...
  7. not as bad as blair witch but it is pretty bad i saw it on tuesday and nobody was up front i think everybody had been warned to sit in the back of the theater.. lol i agree though was way disapointed
  8. id give ya some places but im in daytona an hour away...sorry i cant be any help
  9. put the front piece on before you trim the top to fit then take the beveled bearing bit and fallow the edge of the counter. this way the front is actually under the counter top formica and more hidden. and some wood putty would be fine and you more than likely dont need to fill any of them unless they are the big football looking hole things..
  10. i think some pics would clear things up nicely
  11. if its like my 74 it is a fiber optical light that puts light into the cigarette lighter. mine is disconnected
  12. if you have a noid light take off your injector plugs and see if your getting an injection pulse. just cause its getting fuel pressure doesnt mean its getting fuel..
  13. my friend just got a 2001 s4 its pretty much stock but its about to change. but your right that is one nice ride.. the allwheel drive is amazing i can be completely out of control sliding around a corner yet still be in control. i love that car.... but my z is still faster lol
  14. why not a hydraulic hand brake? like this one http://www.ultrarev.com/product.php?productid=42594
  15. ok well washed the zed today and took a vid of it after i was done... havent really ever posted any pics of my car so here ya guys go.... oh ya.. the stats are its a 1974 260Z early it has a 240sx transmission, megasquirted L28et, stock pretty much every thing except a FMIC from a starion, but all the emissions stuff is taken off, suspension is the stock stuff as far as i know except i cut the springs to lower it. and the wheels are the classic made in england Minilite
  16. hell with my first tank of gas driving around town with an awful tune this past week i was getting 17 with MS1 and i used to get 15 around town with the stock ecu
  17. lol exhaust??? what exhaust. can we say open down pipe??
  18. ill get a vid of it tomorrow with how its running now we got alot of the hesitation out of it and its alot smoother
  19. ok... my first video.. and phil your to blame. you got me wanting to show my car off even though it isnt any where near as nice as most of yours. and rick thanks for helping me tune this afternoon its running pretty good now...
  20. dont know on the resistors but on the wiring bundle that i used from DIY the power wire for the injectors was thinner wire and the ground wire was thicker wire..
  21. this looks great. but why make it so you weld it together?? why not make the 2 sides bolt together with an o-ring to seal it?? like just have half an o-ring grove on each side and then just add tabs around the outside to bolt it together. to me that would look way better and maybe even allow for different size plenum chambers to suit different taste's/preference
  22. glad your ok. did you have full coverage on it at least?? if so get the money. buy back the car and then get another shell and start swapping parts over. seems like that would be the way to go
  23. hey matt yeah i am. i figured out what it was though with the help of rick bowers or speeder on here. i followed the directions on how to make the relay cable on the mega manual page and it says to leave out pin 36. well with the new 3.0 board pin 36 is ign output for the direct coil driver. and then on the new relay board pin36 goes to pin 11 i think for the negative side of the coil. and well no matter how hard it tries to send the signal i dont think its going to go anywhere with out a wire solderd in so i put one in and it fired right up. dang im excited lol thanks. P.S matt if you read this do you know who to contact so we can get the information changed on the megamanual.com page so it is updated???

    no spark,

    ok to get my info out of the way i have a 260z with an82 l28et swap into it. and im installing msns+extra v3.0 along with the relay board well its installed and every thing seems to work but i have no spark. so i have a few questions that hopefully you guys can help me sort through. 1st. I followed the diyautotune.com's install artical on there web site. and i used this diagram to wire up my relay board now that i think about it i actually installed it like this to me that does the same thing its just at a different place on the line which shouldnt make a difference if im thinking right but im just checking everything so thought i would ask. 2nd. my next question is what is the proper wiring coming off of the ignition coil? i have mine set up just like ti shows on the above diagram the + side gets power from the fuel pump with a 10amp fuse installed. and the negative post is hooked to pin 11 on the junction box on the relayboard. and thats all i have hooked up to my coil. should i have a condensor or something wired in there somewhere?? Well those are the only 2 things i can think of that arent exactly how they say to do it. or i can think that might be off. well any input would be appriciated. thanks Jeff
