  1. Monzter...I would be willing to make a batch for Hybridz. I have access to most everything you mention at a decent price...even a great welder able to lay bead down like yourself!. The only unknown is powder paint, lots around here but I havent used any recently.

     

    If everyone was willing to accept unpainted parts Id be willing to move ahead for sure. Otherwise I need to do more homework. Material cost is minimal welding is a bit more...shipping needs to be determined.

     

    What do you think? Let me know!

  2. No I didnt forget shipping. $100 for both seats and only $20 extra to Canada. Not bad for larger items, and I hate when places charge double to the great white North. It just doesnt cost that much more, in fact its about the same and its just an attempt at a money grab.

     

    Now Alaska is a different beast!

  3. OMG....I always wondered what those threaded holes were for and wanted to build a bar that bolts right up to them...HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA! I figured it was a decent stiffening point as well as a good spot for belts

     

    Damn..I should have asked!:redface:

     

    Thanx!!

     

     

    That is where the original Nissan rally cars' roll bar bolted up and should be plenty sturdy for a harness bar. Still, why not get the extra benefit and brace the strut towers directly?
  4. Ya....you are a Z31 guy :shock:.....side window trim on a S30 is a huge part that would never fit in a home oven unless cut apart.

     

     

    Window trim miiiight fit. I didn't think about bumpers ... I have a z31.

    I haven't seen a kiln before, and don't know their typical size, but a nearby school or pottery shop might let you use theirs.

  5. Im sure these kits work just fine on smaller parts but most folk have regular size ovens that dont fit window trim and front bumpers.:mrgreen:

     

     

    Okay this thread finally made me join. Don't waste your money! You can buy your own powdercoating equipment. I saw it when I was watching the SPEED channel and checked out their website. $70, you need an air compressor and an oven.

    If you haven't heard of this company, I'd suggest looking through their website. There's a lot of cool tools 'n stuff.

  6. As a kid I was a bit of a jerk and drove golf balls across a busy street. Never did hit a car but on one good drive I hooked it right through some bodies kitchen window. It was open and went through every pane of glass.....a BIG window!

     

    Anyway the police were driving by and chased my down.. An what a chase it was! They eventualy caught me and read the riot act....really played it up and scared the crap out of me! Dragged me home and if I recall correctly...my dad thumped me afterwards!

     

    Guess what...I never did it again. Good lesson!

     

    Im glad you caught one! Hope your car is OK.

     

    Hey...Im not sure its a sign of the times...stupid kids will be stupid kids...and always will be. Its up to us to set them straight and teach them the right way!

  7. WOW that sucks. It seems like he forgot to put the wheels lugs on! I cant imagine all of them breaking or coming loose at the same time.

     

    I almost had one wheel come off on the track. They were new wheels and it seems the metal wheels seats settled after the first torqing. Now I always re-torque after my first session!

     

    Its a dumb ass move but I still feel bad for him.

  8. Looks great! I have a set on mine as well. The only thing I dont like is that dirt does get in behind. Especially when it rains, its leaves stains. SO off they go and a cleaning is required.

     

    What we do in the name of good looks.

     

    That front spoiler looks great as well. In trying to decide.... spoiler or air dam???
