I recently went out and bought a brand new welder (MIG gas/wire) to start in on it again. However, I am making my son a lowrider trike bike from scratch so my car is still on hold at the present time. I will post pics up of the bicycle too lol.
Ms is just as good as Crm, it is just a little heavier. I do agree on the above stated facts though about paying someone to do it if you have questions about this kind of thing, it means, and I don't mean to sound aggressive here but, it means that you lack experience in fabricating and lack the...
No updates to speak of, I have not played with it sonce October of 2009, I just bought a house with a 3 car garage, updates will come as soon as I get my garage situated.
Thanks for showing interest.
forgot there was, or didnt know there was, a section to make it to where noone could post comments, i have fixed that issue, sorry for the inconvenience.no updates to speak of, just sitting collecting dust until halloween is over with, setting up fr the 3rd annual party at my house.
i will...
Finally i get to start working on it again! i have gotten the body, and the panels back on the chassis, hood clearance is great, everything has lined up just like factory, aluminum work and lines will be next on the to-do list. as always, comments are welcome and i would like some input. :hellyeah:
My brother took his welder back for a few days, so i have some spare time. figured i would take apart the chassis from the sub frames and get it prepped for the final leg of the tubing build. i have a few more welds to do on the whole thing, along with a few smaller gussets here and there, and...
sorry, keep forgetting the damn camera. i am going to wwe raw tomorrow night, and arm drop live (pinks all out) saturday, so i will have the camera this weekend and snap some shots. i shortened the clutch and brake pedals, along with pernanently mounting my steering column. also played around...
well, i got my kirkley aluminum seat in yesterday afternoon. thing looks killer! i took it home, positioned it in the car, and i realized that it is a bit smaller than the mockup seat i had, so this means no secondary cage because my head does not go past the main hoop! so stoked to find this...
well, we aquired a 99 eclipse rs in the shop earlier this week. i took the foot feeds off it for the car. brake, clutch, and gas pedals with master cylinders are all sepperate, unlike the 1g's are. this will work perfectly for my project. i took them home last night and tacked them in place...
***this fuel cell and battery box setup is just temporary, i will end up cross bracing under the area, then using aluminum sheeting for the floor. also, i know i need straps for the cell per manufacturers directions***thanks for looking as always.
so, i was given this gihugic turbo from the tow outfit next door. the only markings it has is a warning label and ar-12600. quick google search resulted in not much, but i found this interesting video of one...
YouTube - Dells Jet Kart 2 At Kingsnorthi think i will play around with this...
yeah, i seen some on summit that were in the 500$ range. has the 3 pedals, floor mounted, with master cylinders included. also found a floor mounted clutch assembly for 50 bucks by itself. might be able to use the stock clutch master cyl with it if it has the right ratio (6:1.) hoping the talon...
looking to upgrade the 1g clutch pedal assembly with something else. still keeping the hydraulic clutch setup even though i am used to a cable setup. i just do not have much room in my build under the column for the whole assembly (the talon has the up and over setup). i just want a basic pedal...
very well said. if it was a poll about a hot ass, i may have been persuaded to vote another way, but, i see no purpose in tits, you dont stare at them from behind anyways lol.
ok, so the running joke around the race track is when someone chickens out, or complains, they are called a "sandy vagina" ok. last year, we hired a new tow truck driver, and he is about 400lbs, good guy right. so i was introduced to him, and his name is sandy. well, he says his name and i...
i agree. i get all of my tools from either Matco or Mac, if it breaks, they come by and replace it, i do not have to drive anywhere. besdides the fact that you get tools on a payment plan and pay 20 a week on whatever you get. i have about 5k in tools and another 1k in just the box (rollaway...
nice run on the dyno. props!
if i may ask, what are the mods to the 7 bolt? this is about as high as i want to get on my taleon as far as whp goes so it will be more reliable. i read the cams and turbo. fuel injectors, and EMS, intake mainfold, stuff like that, if you want to share anyways?
if you have ever wondered how to weld a differential, here is how...
Welded Dif, What the hell!!! - Pirate4x4.Com Bulletin Boardi appologize if it is a repost, but i have not seen the thread, even searched.:hellyeah:
i have found that NOS, at least two bottles will get me where i am going in a hurry. taste is better than most drinks, and the boost, pun intended, is quite nice.
ah, this reminds me of the old "turbo in a bottle" invention. almost like Nitrous, but with compressed air.
150psi should be ok with a MLS headgasket right?
you could run a pump like those who have air ride on their mini's into the intake pipe and not have a turbo. should be good for 30 psi...
thank you good sir, and your buddies out there making the world a safer place for all, not just the USA.too often you dont get to hear a thank you, well, thank you.makes you put your life in perspective though, too much bitchin' about timing belts breaking, control arms failing, ect ect...
i agree about the WAC, BSU has grown out of that conference i think. we need better teams to play. there is no competition in the WAC for us. hawaii is the only team i get nervous about playing, er watching BSU play, because they are close to us skill wise.i want a shot at the big teams for...
and the undefeated BSU WAc champions will be left out of yet another bowl game.
i would love to watch BSu play a big team again, like they did with the sooners in the tostito bowl. that was an intense game.
i also wish a great holiday to the dsm family. even though i am a black sheep hybrid lol.
this forum is one of the better, helpfull and polite sites on the net. full of great info and great members. thanks for not bashing on my project, or really any of my stupid posts or ideas lol.without...
yeah, i read that part, my problem is i have zero experience with any tuning software besides a wideband lol.:notgood:i looked at the available info, head is swiming now haha. but i am still going to buy a v3.on a side note, does it support C.O.P. setups? i am sure it does.
well, i have the eprom, was going to get the v2, but since the taleon will not be finished by years end, v3 it will be for me.i guess i will have to do some reading now on v3.:(
thanks for the acknowledgment guys. i read the repliees on here and neons forum to him, what a big smile you guys gave him haha.as for the debating comment...he was diagnosed 8 years ago (he was 2 then) and it is not something ANY parent would enjoy hearing, at least i hope not. we...
yeah, that x pose was after his strike lol.
he is not really an avid bowler, we have not been for about 2 years now, but my wife and i were in a league for a number of years, and both my kids used to watch. he was a baby when we first started bowling, used to sleep through the entire league...
i have a hard time spelling some of these, but here you go...
he has been diagnosed with asbergers, Tourett's, add, adhd, aggression, anxiety disorder, slight mental retardation. he takes 3 different meds 3 times a day just to function enough to be able to think. he is in the 5th grade, but more...
so, my 10 year old son entered the Special Olympics, which will be held here in Idaho.
he will be bowling for the sport of choice. today was his first tournament.
out of roughly 30 kids each with their own disabilities, 3 different schools, my son came in second place based on a 3 game average...
my shop has an ebay store, and we are hating ebay as well as thousands of other stores on there.if you do not know about listing things on ebay, here is a rundown....the old way was to use a program supplied by ebay called turbolister. it made making listings a breeze. paypal, m/o, cash...
looks as though i might be up for this "off-roading" once my project is finished up.
maybe do a little bit of the 'ol ken block treatment to the taleon.
20r and 22r toyota motors also have the chains. i have seen chains fail as cars come through my junk yard on a regular basis, not as much as a timing belt though.
what the 4g63 needs is a cam gear driven supercharger, along with a nice 35r.
I.F.I'S (individual forced induction, almost like itb's.)LOL
those lil turbo's are great for lawnmowers, rc boats, go-karts <oooh, that would be awsome.:thumb:
sorry for the stupid question, but the non-turbo 1st gen and turbo 1st gen are different?
i assume that the nt has a larger tb?
just asking because someone dropped off a head, intake mani, block, exhaust mani to us to dispose of and the tb looks bigger.
if so, you just swap out the tps on it...
