    140mph Deer Hunting. (Graphic)

    in Non Tech Board

    Posted

    Oh come on guys., get real..it fit into one kidney BMW grill. take a 70 pound bag of...........ahh.....flour.... and try to stuff it into that hole at 140MPH! Never mind a 70 pound bag of flour that running at full stride for its life_____Without even detroying a headlight! I dont think so! Even if it is a BMW. I say its a 20lb fox. Tooooo funny

     

    Oh ya...Ive driven the autoban...yes the speed is more than possible.....Im not disputing that.

     

    it's germany. if that car was on the autobahn, i bet it could be 140. also, look at how smashed that deer is in there. it hit so hard, that from the looks of it, the engine got pushed into the firewall, and the radiator is crushed to the point it's nowhere to be seen. for a small 70-80lb deer, i'll be that car WAS doing 140. if it was doing 50 it would've bounced off or something.

    Fow what engine?

     

    I have a SS (RB20DET) as well, fits fine and no probs. I also have a HKS unit (and Manifold :) )that I received by surprise from Japan when I bought a RB25 turbo. It much better..the material is thicker and the welds are way cleaner. The openings also are much larger and better positioned. Go the HKS if you can...but for the price...SS is a great deal.

    How to connect wires?

    OK help me out...what is crystalization of copper..please define,

     

    Secondly...I have soldering many wires and have never had a problem. My main goal is to melt the solder as quickly as possible without heating up the wire too much. Am I doing something wrong?

     

    Thirdly...when I use the weathertight connectors I crimp and put a light solder on the crimp. Again have not had a problem. Do you have concerns with this?

     

    And lastly....the only time I have found dislocated weathertight connectors is when I have messed up the unstall...I screwed up!.... Or put female pins in both ends...:D They may not be as good as AMP but lets get real...they are not poor quality! They are a realistic and affordable substitute that performs very well in 30+ year old Zs This thread is talking about replacing a few connectors not redoing the entire car with new wire and fresh connectors.

    That deer must be pretty small and very short...... to fit through that one grill opening. I go with Nism0Zed, perhaps a fox size critter.

     

    And I dont believe that car was going 140!

     

    Think about how many times have you seen a car damaged by a deer....at 60mph!

    Im almost finished turbo charging an 89 3 valve engine in my 240SX track car. It has a log manifold, a Z31 turbo....no intercooler (for now) Stock head. The local NISSAN techs tell me it should be able to run 5 to 6 psi with no changes. (its a real BUDGET car!)

     

    It may end up with a hole in the block as well.... :) haha...........

     

    KA-t would be much better!

    What do you mean bend the curves...I was assuming he would carve the entire dash out of a "solid" piece...

     

     

     

    Teak would work well, it's light and fairly strong. It also forms easily when wet. It's a patience thing. Just bend the curves carefully and make sure you have the right tools for cutting.

    I had this idea many years ago...it would look great but how do you make it without all the weight , and would such a complex shape crack. How does rosewood handle different climate conditions? Teak is preferred by boaters...isnt it?

     

    And besides.....I realized I didnt have the skill set to whittle something that big! :)

    I believe I have been lapping with Amhad...and he aint 70. The car is full tube chasis and yes it runs a GN engine. Its real fast! He has been racing for years!

     

    It was a crazy day at the Shannonville track.... a cold mid November day..the organizers let all cars onto the track at once....everything from stock Hondas to this GT2 car. It was nuts...A pack of Hondas were braking for a corner...I was still accelerating trying to beat them there and Amhad blew right through all of us like thunder. In retrospect it was a dangerous session but heck of a lot of fun :icon54:.

     

     

    No, all I know is that it's owned by Ahmad Khodkar.

     

    A man in his 70's who lives in Ontario, from the information me and my friend gathered it was built by whiteheadperformance. It's a V6 out of a Buick Grand National, though the exhaust tone betrays it because it sounds a lot like a V8.

    When I bought them I picked up individual components. Seperate pins. plugs and all....it was way cheaper. Dont forget to pick up one of those tools that releases the pins. I miswired one headlight and having that tool made correcting my screw up a breeze
