Whoops, this video was posted already. Off to the shed!

How would you like to get stuffed in your nice GT3 by a flying brick?

Would the LM7 manifold clear a non cowl induction style hood?

Thanks, I was just unclear about the tech in these welders. I am still just at the beginning phases and will prob not be anything more than a hobbyist so I was just wondering what the differences were. But you know how it goes, high dollar machines are always cool!

Hi all, I've just started using the miller Dynasty in class for TIG, but I remember seeing the XMT 350's with a TIG option as well. When I looked them up, the XMT seemed to be priced similarly to the Dynasty model. Is the Dynasty machine just that much better at TIGing vs the XMT, which can do stick and MIG, that it costs the same for 1 process? Or are these just meant for totally different types of applications. I was just curious if anyone had any info on this. Thinking about one or the other in the future. Thanks in advance.

Are there any other wide flares beside the ones from Zforce? I have the rears now, and would prefer if they were higher quality.

I know when I tried to order it, it would show up as "no longer available" even though they list it on the website. A couple other people talk about it in this other thread. http://forums.hybridz.org/index.php/topic/101441-1516-master-cylinder-rebuild-kit/

Either way, I would try and get my hands on the 79-81 master now if you plan on upgrading at some point in the future. If you do a search around the board, people (myself included) are having a tough time locating one.

I bet he is the guy who bought up all the 15/16 master cylinders from the zx's.

Came across this mother of a Caddy build. http://www.popularhotrodding.com/enginemasters/0609em_cadillac_performance_parts_engine/index.html

Looks like someone started a V12 swap already. Not sure where all the links go or if it's even current. From the looks of it, it's not a swap for the faint of heart (or light in the wallet)! http://wiederhold-rd.com/Porsche-M120.html

Any word on these pistons working? I am about ready to swap over to the later model 280zx master and booster. So far all my attempts at a 79-81 master are coming up empty.

There was a 944 locally for sale that had a smog certified LS swap in it selling for about 8k. Pretty good deal. And then there are guys like this one... http://www.eurotuner.com/featuredvehicles/eurp_1004_1985_porsche_944/viewall.html

Good sportsmanship starts young...

Who said F1 needed to only drive on a track?!

I started this other thread a few days ago. Might be of interest to you guys. http://forums.hybridz.org/index.php/topic/101722-82-83-280zx-booster-and-master-swap/

I don't know anyone with that kmac unit, but I did see one before it was going to be installed on a car. In terms of materials and construction quality it doesn't compare to the units that betamotorsports sells. The kmacs may work fine, but for my money I'd rather save longer and get something proven.

Pretty sweet. At least this you can buy finished! http://www.amazon.com/Scale-Diecast-Datsun-Color-White/dp/B002EOPRVM/ref=sr_1_4?s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1313647938&sr=1-4 Here's a vid of someone showing off his...um...ride.

Thanks, if I can't source a master for my car, I'll just go this route. I wonder why the later ones are readily available and the earlier masters are scarce. Did everyone on this forum buy up all the overstock?

Seeing as how much of a headache it seems to be to find a 79-81 15/16 master cylinder these days, I did a search on the interwebs and came across this posting. I have not compared the space where the booster resides between and s130 and an s30. So asking to see if anyone has done this swap before, and if so would the booster cause an issue with the light s30? The s130 booster is larger. The master from an 82-82 s130 is listed at 15/16. http://www.zdriver.com/forum/showpost.php?p=278969&postcount=19

Seems to be the same, at least according to this part listing. http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/shop_parts/brake_master_cylinder/nissan/280zx.html

Not sure on the bore but the bolt pattern is horizontal. Opposite of the s30 booster.

Please keep us updated about that kit. I am having a ***** of a time trying to find a master or a rebuild.
