it was in an dusty box and id just like to make sure

alright thats what i thought i just wanted to make sure before i took it apart thanks

ya mine is im good shape its just really dirty!!!!!!! lol

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

ya gotta go with the clear... just keeping it clean might be a pain..

i have 3 center caps if ya need them decent shape. pm me

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..

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

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...

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

id give ya some places but im in daytona an hour away...sorry i cant be any help

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..

i think some pics would clear things up nicely

if its like my 74 it is a fiber optical light that puts light into the cigarette lighter. mine is disconnected

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..

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

why not a hydraulic hand brake? like this one http://www.ultrarev.com/product.php?productid=42594

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

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

lol exhaust??? what exhaust. can we say open down pipe??

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

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...

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..

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

did your reaction disk maybe come out???
