  1. I'm putting the controls in the stock place. They only stick back into the dash about 2 inches I guess. If you go with the mini like Mikey pictured above, you could push the right side of the unit forward another inch or so maybe. I'm in the gulf south so I wanted biggest I could fit. Where do you plan to run your knee bar? Give me a measurement and next time I have to put the dash back in I could try to get you some pictures of that area.
  2. Clean really well with wax and grease remover and do a mist coat for the first coat. Let it flash off some then do heavier coats. Let rattle can stuff cure a long time before hard use. I'm sure it will say something along those lines on the cans instructions.
  3. Advanced auto has chassis and roll bar paint in a rattle can. I'm sure it's as durable as any rattle can stuff and they also have some epoxy in a spray can. http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/p/vht-paint-roll-bar-chassis-gloss-black-11-oz-aerosol-sp670/99984858-p I painted the roll bar in my last car with it and it held up nicely. It was a convertible and it didn't fade. I didn't drag anything across it or have harness or anything wrapped around it to find out how tough it really was. At least with a spray can it would be easy to fix.
  4. Hopefully I have this in for its final resting place. Tired of taking the dash and evaporator in and out to make sure nothing will interfere. Got to this point today and everything tightened all the way. This baby better be cold!
  5. Can you pm me a price o. 4" tach and 4" speedo non gps, programmable with turn signals and high beams. I want to use the output from my t56 for the signal to it. Thanks.
  6. If we can take advantage of the 20% off sale at speedhut through you going on now, I'm ready.
  7. I will be ordering a tach and speedo by summer also.
  8. Do you use that strutbar for harness mounts? Do you think it would be strong enough for that? That looks like it would be a simple idea for a removable harness mount if the strength is there.
  9. It looks like theirs already comes cut away from the pictures in the links above.
  10. Mine isn't running yet but used lizard skin. It's light, easy to apply and you can get 100% coverage. Water shouldn't be able to get under it as you paint it on. Can also put many coats and do both sides. When you knock on the panels it's much quieter than before. My friends is running and he has been doing 1 area at a time, just brushing it on, and it gets quieter with each section done. I used fatmat on my last car. It's a cheaper dynamat type of stuff. It weighed a ton, and was hard to cover weird shaped areas. Anything is better than nothing though. Also if you get carpet the mass backing is supposed to make a big difference.
  11. Got the air conditioner lines ran. Just waiting on the heater hose bulkhead connectors to come in to finish.
  12. http://news.yahoo.com/nissans-z-car-appeal-continues-151629009.html The Nismo 370 has some nice looking side skirts.
  13. I just ordered mine yesterday. I have the 5 lug 300zx hubs with 300 disk and 4 runner calipers. I hope it doesn't cause me any problens. I hate having ti modify new parts, especially powder coated ones.
  14. I've seen small PVC pipe fiberglassed into something before, like 1/2". It's flexible and easily bent with heat, and shouldn't melt. It may have even been split in half.
  15. Will it have all the stock features. such as ac vent holes, glove box, etc.?
  16. Thanks. I was wondering if the rear ashtray would fit in the hole in the rear of the coupe console that has the removable plug in it.
  17. Anyone know if parts can interchange between the 2? things like middle and rear ash trays, lids, etc?
  18. I posted the same thing in site help. Doesn't work for me either.
  19. Looking around the junkyard, most cars around early 2000s used very similar door trim, We took some off a Kia, ranger and another car, and when we got back to the shop we couldn't tell which was which.
  20. I just cut some sheetmetal circles slightly bigger and used body panel glue. Took about 10 min to do the whole car.
