you sure? that glass weighs a lot, you may be better off shedding the 20 pound windshield in favor of a lighter carbon alternative

[bellis_GTR]

I'm also working on glasses that allow you to see through solid mass

Rear deck cover? 120$ at the moment

It couples to a rear firewall cover (150$) that deletes the rear seats and cleans up the back end.. This should be up here soon!

[bellis_GTR]

lol yeah that and the tool to get all the sound deadening junk out.

[nelsonmxmarc]

Oh haha
It's like 60-70$?
Need an air compressor tho!

[bellis_GTR]

ohh Ok Ill have to grab one! Looks like you can get the whole car done in no time with that.

Small update;

Been busy with xmas shopping so it's been tough to get any work in on the car .. Also, we've been setting up and messing around with a few new tools..

Plasma cutter;



Horizontal band saw;




I also got some new goodies in the mail.. I'm collecting everything and putting it all in one photoshoot before it goes onto the car so i can have one family gathering before everyone goes their separate way..

But here's what came today! Thanks Mark (Craftz)





20 year old intercooler??







And off to work related stuff..

this is for Adam;







Almost done with that.. And a few more other customer projects to do, then i can get around to more car stuff like finishing my rear carbon deck/firewall cover

Now with the new plasma cutter, i plan to cut the entire rear speaker deck out, and since we now have access to welders and a bandsaw (horizontal), i can make my own custom bracing instead of the rear deck!

nice work on the CF wrap, looks better than what you did with my parts (you still need to fix the triple gauge bezel)

and i have a few ideas for CF work, i'll pm u l8er

[nelsonmxmarc]

Ya! Send it my way and i'll fix it!

I wont lie, this job was done with a little more "experience" lol. I also use a spray adhesive under as well, as the glue doesnt adhere to the textured finish

I got your text, i only saw it a few minutes ago.. Guess i was on the phone when it came in lol.

mehhhh... How crazy do you want these canards?

[frankiman]

**ahem
canards?...

i'll pm you sir

From what I understand, the throttlebody should be aimed at 3-4 cylinders on a front facing plenum. If aimed incorrectly it affects air distribution to other cylinders. Also the flat edge shape of intake plenum from throttlebody doesn't help. Should be on a angle, which some do after they cut that part of intake plenum up to fit divertor plates.

GTR intake plenum is similar in design as your intake plenum design and 5th, 6th cylinders get too much air.

Nissan updated the GTS design with twin intake on R34 RB20DE -

Seen something similar on GTR dragcar intake plenum in Japan. Sort of like the exhaust side of RB26DETT, but in reverse when applied on intake side.
