  2. actually on rethink, your definatly taking a sick day on friday...... and so am i.
  3. sick day sick day sick day!!! keen to cruise at like 12 aye then lay in the grass at vinigar hill for the rest of the day.
  4. i have a small mountain of these engines, after youve had fun with it, id be keen on the carbs, ignitor box, and coils, likewise if your after anything i may have it. edit and the fuckin airbox
  5. listen to this dude, his matty b jobs are 'teh sex'
  6. could you do something like build open side of the cam up 10mm, ressemble the head , clay the pistons then grind the lobes back (in place) untill they all have the same clearance. take the cam back out and clean up the ramp?

    just get on with it and do what i said lol its a simple 2-3 hour complete job from nothing to having a new one in your hands/car.

    just dooo itttt its the easyest way ive found to get this specific job done right.

    lay under car / put in on ramps/ so its at rideheight. put a driveshaft in the gearbox (right hard up in it) put another on the diff flange hold them next to eachother scribe a line though both in the same place perpendicular to shaft describe what you did to the driveshaft maker specifcally tell him that it was right hard up in box as it wants to be ~10mm shorter so as the diff moves around it doesnt bottem out into the box.

    its cheap as fuck to get a driveshaft outfit to shorten one as opposed to lengthen / diffirent diameter.

    it will work fine regulated, but when your fucking around trying to get it running sweet at some point youl have some suspision about the pump which will later turn out to be not a problem but you will have allready put an electric one in. so seeing as you will swap it out anyway, do it now, and then your fuel bowels will be filled for you the first time you goto start it too. fuck in the half an hour it took to type that 50 other cunts replyed.
  12. cheers man, thats exactly what i wanted to know but couldnt find anywhere, i know the needle valves are working as i replaced them and bench tested the unit. you dont happen to know what the 'non adjustable' float height should be set to also?
  13. yeah its a factory setup besides the fuelpump. just a simple question.
  14. having a play with a pair of hif6's and was wondering something, i realise the needles shape is the 'adjusted' part, but does the 'jet' ever change? i put a kit trough each one (haddnt had it running previosuly), which came with replacement 'jets', (which have a diffirent style of pickup), we started the engine and it runs eyewateringly rich right thoughout the adjustable jet height range. so its 1 of 3 things, - incorrect 'jet' - problem with the cold start enrichment valve - fuel pressure -> currently running 4.5psi (measured) on a facet pump. ill put the old jets back in tomorrow, was just intrested/bouncing ideas really
  15. if you want to do something fucking cool, slice 25mm thick wheel spacers diaganonally that would be ultra awesome to see driving.
  16. i cbf getting into a debate on this. just measure everything properly remebering more clearance=lower tolerances=exponentially cheaper, think about intervening factors thougherly, think hard about how to describe what you want and you wont have a problem. i dont know if your giving me a hard time about being an 'expert', i dont proclaim to be one or anything but i do do this kind of shit day in day out so i thought it would be worthwhile saying something if anything to give someone the confidence to give it a go themself in a world of paying otherpeople to do everything and then putting a xyz motorsport sticker on your window.
  17. yeah, with a provision for a seal. i tihnk you can buy weld in ones from vpw.com.au you want to measure the angle in regards to the flange the injectors want to sit, then just get the holes the the bosses need to sit in pitched off in a mill, specify it only needs to be set up with a protractor-level as the angle doesnt need to be very accurate($$) then get the holes in some extruded fuel rail pitched off to the same measurements. be sure to get them to cut a 2 diameter hole i.e the small hole through and the big one a shoulder cut to a specific depth. follow? if you walk in knowing exactly what you want done it will be cheap as.
  18. bah i just realised i haddnt thought that through. and i imagine they haddnt eaither. just run the efi pump straight to the carb then bleed off pressure in that line with a normal 2 port lp reg t'd into it with the other port returning to the tank.
  19. i will have a banging hangover but im pretty keen on some racing/meet you cunts, ive never been to/raced at a 'competition meet' is it just a rock up pay and race event like nsdw? can run jap import/headsup?
  20. Hey boes, me and female sentra are looking for a flat. Somewhere central aucklandy - epsom, mt eden, onehunga, ellerslie, sandringham etc. We arent overly rowdy, in our 20s, dont argue etc etc
  21. if your broke and have free time why not, if theres a glandnut on the top you can do it ultra easy, but that shock looks like its not macpherson style suspension/even if it broke in half it wouldnt matter really.
  22. i did this when i was at school and broke as (not long ago), asking the same thing at the time someone said the only thing to watch out for was to put exactly exactly the same amount of oil back in. so yeah i did and put thicker oil back in, spaced the inner stop out with garden hose and i thought they were just the bees knees/worked fine. if you wanted to be a full pro you could get a very fine pitch turned in the 2 cut ends of the outer body, and a internally threaded sleeve to join it all back together.
  23. does anyone know the exact rules on dented sills? i was under the impression that it was a no-no but my car is pretty much creased from door to door inc sills and testing station never say anything.
  24. i dont want to sound like a homo but did you connect the engine earth lead?
