mine was brittle as hell.

yea me too.. well today i welded some on the fuel tank sump. i am going to take a night off. 1st one on a month. i feel bad, but i am completely exhausted... so for tonight its just grand tourismo 5 and some beers. hope to get the fuel tank sump done tomorrow and button up the braided lines for the oil and water feeds for the turbos. then time to pull off the intake manifold. i got one of those fancy ones on the way. got the clutch put back on, flywheel turned and so on. i hate to put in the stock clutch but it looked like it has enough meat on it to last an hour or two. haha i think at this point i would rather get her running. i am debating going AEM ems series 2. it would save me a few hundred bux in sensors if i did it now vs later, not to mention the fab time on the intake stuff... but thats probably gonna have to wait for the tax returns.... anyway... dont hate on the night off

yea mine looked like that too, i went with an ATI. boy was that puppy on there too. took the biggest pulley puller i had and a heavy slide hammer.

i would definitely do a water pump. i went with the stock water pump. i hear things about street driving with the N1. i would go ahead and change the oil pump while your in there. just my opinion though... if you do change the oil pump make sure you order a gasket If you have any spare patience please let me know i will paypal ya

for build continuation go here... Different Owner

up

thats pretty cool stuff.

what if i made one outta fiberglass and sent it to ya?

just gonna use 5 pairs of jumper cables, guess i will need another rb26 for the tundra to keep up... maybe i can keep AWD this time.. haha

well, got the trans out, clutch its oem but usable for a day or two i think i will save up for a good one. but 1st thing is first, get it running... i will turn the flywheel tomorrow, put in the new rear main seal and order a new bushing that goes in the crank. it was all torn up, hopefully they will have that in stock but i doubt it. Then put her back together. Does anyone know the where i can get a fork boot from? mines gone. is it same as 300zx?

i was just curious if you have a racing background

Well, today was a lazy day. Just installed the modded N1 oil pump, water pump, cam gears, timing belt and polished up the cam sensor and mouting bracket. I like how the greddy timing belt has the marks for the dots on the cam gears. that makes things easy, other companies probably do the same.... You can hardly tell the clear cover is on it. haha

everything is for sale, if the price is right .... put this thing in my tube chassis 280... if i ever finish it.

what is your career?

mine was hitting it pretty good i would have to take out at least1/2 inch or so. oh i also stitch welded the front of the car. also i will be selling this oil pan if anyone is interested. its one of pats. thanks

ahh crap i put blue loctite on them about 3 hours ago, hope i can get em out...

Well, here is my RB26 Z car project. I need a name for her. Got the car about 2 weeks ago, here is my progress so far. i dont think i have been home before 12am since.. 1st thing i did was to put her on a lift and steam clean the hell out of it. boy was she a dirty girl... (no pics of that) Hopefully this will work. Here is my FlickR album i will be uploading pics too. Datsun Uploads Things that are hard to tell: -Bad Dog frame rails welded in -Stiched welded front of car, down the rails, and around the mustache bar. -Got a new front crossmemeber because the one that was in the car had the camber adjusters all welded up, i tried grinding/plasma cutting but it didnt work. (whats 40 bux at this point)... Notched Passengerside transmission mount Removing engine Engine after steam cleaning Empty engine bay Timing Covers off engine Passenger side transmission mount Tension rod brace SandBlasting Some toys After sand blasting i painted it with POR 15, and sanded the engine bay.... R230 Install via TTT mustache bar (high mount option) (frame uncut) Fun with my plasma cutter More Goodies Fuel lines 1/2 (8AN) feed and return. i plan on running a sump and a surge tank with 2 built in walburo 255s since i have them already. Sump, Damn i could use a sheetmetal brake.... Por 15 BlackCoat (glossy) no paint booth but oh well... N1 oil pump modded for external pickup Tomorrow i will start ripping off the timing stuff. or maybe i will get some sleep. i dont know yet... haha this is getting in the way of my beer drinking. ---damn that was a pain in the ass, i posted all those from flickr and then it said invaild extension so i had to go back and redo it all... ehhhh

yea, i actually ended up using 1/2 line (8an) from the tank to the front of the car, both the feed and return. i plan on running 2 walburo 255 high pressures which will be built into the surge tank. i plan on running 1 -6an line from each pump to each side of the fuel rail and have a 8an return from the rail to the surge tank, and a 8an return back to the cell. i guess i am going to have to move my battery to the truck. this damn engine bay is tiny.

i will be your quinne pig... throw one in with my oil pan

keep it up.. i need motivation too.. i will be doing my progress soon.. maybe tomorrow or tonight i will start posting in a different thread. looking good...

is this a sard tank? i can build it no problem, but i cant seem to find a lid like that. i dont have any milling equipment or i would attempt to make my own lid

to the top

mack, i think this was a one time run, i plan on using a steel freeze plug and tigging a steel an bung on it... i would assume you can do the same

did you cut your stock diff front mount and use the bushing caps like that or what?
