Looks sharp man Gotta do this also

i always though that the bedliner stuff got hard. ( i thought anyway) :redface:

Are you talking about using this for undercoating? i dont know but i would think that stuff is pretty heavy, It gets pretty hard to so it might not block much noise.

I can personally vouch for the 3-m rubberized undercoating. I use it everyday at work. When we mount the rear end under the trailers all the steel has to be undercoated. That stuff last for ever to. I have seen trailers 10 plus years old and the undercoating still looks real good, and no rust issues what so ever. Couple years back some of the big wheels though they where going to save some money and switch to a cheaper brand after about 4 months of use we had some complaints up north of rust. So after saving a couple hundred bucks we had to pay out a couple grand for warranty work. So my 2cents Dont step on a quarter to pick up a dime :mrgreen:

Depending on your quality goals (and also how strong your rotisserie is) I guess would determine if you wanted to leave the driveline and suspension attached to the car. I personally would remove driveline and suspension. It will give you a finished product that you will be happy with and be a lot less of a hassle to work with. But I tend to go overboard on quality and appearance though. Sorry getting off topic here:icon56:

:mrgreen: Like spraying a paint roller with the water hose!! I have seen the underside of cars blasted several times on the rotisserie and helped a couple, but come to think of it I haven't seen any other part blasted while on it. I cant remember if the bodies just didn't need it or what. I have a good buddy that does a lot of this type of work. I should see him tomorrow and ill ask if it matters.

Just wondering if anyone here had any CAD drawings of the floor pans or support rails For a S130? Or know where i could get some. I work at a rather large alum and steel factory and with any of these drawing i can have anything i need fabbed up, I just pay the price of the material with a discount!! Thanks in advance Jason

I got a tranny, Im fixing to pull out this weekend (hopefully). No wining, shifts smooth. Like to get 120 for the tranny but did you want it shipped?

How about the green GOBL1N. That is the first thing i thought of when i saw your car ( looks great by the way:rockon:) I have a 4year old so he is in to the "Spider-Man shoots his web on the Goblin" deal right now.

The picture quality may have shifted my opinion. the pic that prox.. put up looks sharp. the color looks good with the flares and the body kit. Adding black to the flares and stuff would tone it down a little if that was your goal. Maybe that color and a Carbon Fiber would be nice also.

I just replied to your other post in the for sale section. I dont think Atlanta would be that much of a drive from here. I think a little less than 4 hours depending what part of Atlanta u live in. How far are you from Charlotte? If you would shoot me a couple of pics of the doors especially but all the body parts you have that are in good shape. Maybe ill make a trip this weekend:mrgreen:

shoot me a pic if you would just to make sure we are talking about the same part. Also give me a price shipped to 27263

What i really need is the "I guess it is the rear brake light panel holder", the rear 1/4s and doors. My brake lights are about to fall out from the rust that has took over.

The condition dont have to be perfect but i was not wanting any rust. Dents and ding no problem. Ya shipping would prolly be crazy outrages for those doors and stuff. Im gonna hold off for now Maybe something a little closer to home will pop up... But if not ill keep you in mind

you couldnt shoot me a couple pics could you>> rjratliff@triad.rr.com

Are you talking free!! Prolly would be to much of a trip though. But my good buddys Dad lives in Ocalla and his brother lives in Tampa. But i think Orlando is still a pretty good ways from Ocalla Right??

im in need of a lot of body parts for a 83 280zx 2 seater. doors, really a rear clip, hood , quarter panels, really just about a new body. The car has sentimental value so i want to fix the car i got not buy a new shell. East coast would be good so shipping wouldn't kill me. pm me or shoot me a email rjratliff@triad.rr.com or just reply here with what you got

was wondering the same thing can you spin it by yourself or do you need help?

would have to say the mirrors look alot better with the car black. Prolly would be better (IMHO) for those mirrors to be painted the same color as the car. So they dont stand out that much but stand out enough to say i have mirrors on my fenders

everyone has there own taste in color. Im defiantly not liking the color but im a plain black or silver color guy when it come to s30s or s130.

will have to keep that in mind. i have been wanting to clean the garage up anyway.

definitely have to say good looking work dude :2thumbs:

definitely agree with ^^^ Try to come in early ( this can go for any job) Alot of the "old timers" will come in a hour early ( drink coffee.. shot the ♥♥♥♥ and talk ♥♥♥♥ about how dumb there boss man is and so on and so on) This is perfect time to get one on one time with some real experienced workers. Just ask some ?? and pay attension to what they say.This also shows that you are dedicated and want to learn and you are not lazy. The grey haired dont like lazy even if they are lazy.lol . Im not a machinist but i have worked with metal (and welded metal)for over 15 years now. Dedication will get you anything you want.

it kinda funny reading this post I was at a old farm auction this past weekend and saw a home made rotisserie go for about 40 bucks. I was bidding on it myself until my wife asking me what i was doing:sad:. Said i had enough junk at the house. :ass:. Does anyone else have this problem? LOL wifes just dont understand

i would also recommend wire welding it dont have to as clean you will spend more time cleaning for tig. And nobody likes the grinder:evil:
