  1. Okay hose stretchers/OS brains trust, On my datsun, ive got a 90° sillycorn reducer elbow (70mm-65mm) from the TB to the MAF. (Space is at a premium on this install) however i need to plumb two hoses into this. One goes to the rocker cover/crankcsse ventilation, and the other to the IACV. They both need to be supplied air which has passed through the MAF otherwise the ecu cant add the necessary fuel to make it run right. Does any kind of fitting exist which to attach to the elbow, whuch i could plug the hoses into? Needs to be 100% air tight, otherwise the engine will get lean/run like a bag of dicks. Absolute last resort would be get a 90° aluminium bend, and have a larger collar welded onto the end that meets the TB. But two joiners will look gammy as fuck. Pics for fred. Something like the last pic, only 14-16mm.
  2. Hey look, theres a multi day bike oddessy at the top of the page too!
  3. 5.6!!!! Holy valvebouncing at 50ph Batman!
  4. I got these off aliexpress for peanuts. They might be too big? Id happily donate a pair. (Ive secured them with baby cable ties before to hold them in place due to their oversized-ness
  5. Im not gonna lie. I had absolutely no idea about your personal situation prior to the day. (I just figured you must not be very good at working on cars) total progress was definately the sum of many parts. But it felt bloody good to help out. Im fuckng stoked to have been able to help out on this.
  6. Thats a hyper ungood buzz my bro.......
  7. Have a hefty feed of eel pie, and wash it down with 6 pints of warm imperial stout.
  8. Bloody good day actually. Nice to meet @daveyc123. Cheers for the burgers and beers!
  9. Did you properly fix your clutch cable? Or is it still the bodge from last year?
  10. Mine usually needs kicking because fucked battery.
  11. Holy shit! From eleven months down to one! I better do my winter lay away maintenance on my bike! Actually, ive done nothing to it. Im not even sure if it has a wof! Ffffffffffffff........
  12. Hey Hogan, @Truenotch can probably reset your @427carguy password, and even change your username if you like.
  13. Im coming although i might not make 12 bang on.
  14. Thats cuts deep man....... /probably not untrue, but hurts none the less..........
  15. The 1600 is parked up in a garage. 521 is a 620. Thats in the garage here. Its awfully far along, but still not quite there yet. I should probably start a thread for that.
  16. I noticed that. Which would timestamp those pictures at around 07-08? Jennifer street days. That party when @datsunboy and @dattohorder ripped fat skids outside your house was a great evening. Truely a golden age........
  17. My old kart hd some shonky pitch sprocket on the axle. The clutch sprocket was 3/8 ASA pitch. The bottom sproket was something else, but the ASA chain seemed to fit. (Well enough)
  18. No that was Maggie. She was a used cat, and came with that name when we got her. She was even more fluffy that oscar.
  19. Spend too much time wound off the end of the speedo?
  20. Thanks Alex. Without spamming up the actual build thread, heres the back story. Our cat is elderly. She annoys me, and was never the favourite. (Other cat is long deceased) but she is a loved part of our family. However her fur goes everywhere. If i take off my work clothes, and put on garage clothes, she'll lie on them and make them all hairy. And her fur collects in tufts all over the carpet/on my norsewear socks. I dont want another cat. I told her i bought another datsun. Theres a garage space at mums for it. Obviously it looks like shit to a non car person. So she blew up and over reacted like a dick. Purely as an excuse to force her will of getting two kittens once Oscar finally falls off the perch. (Yes our girl cat has a boys name, thats another sharn) Anyway, I need to do a three hour mish to go pick it up. At this point, its finding a weekend where both the seller and i arent busy. Then try and get a non rolling car off the trailer, and into the garage. New years day 2023 i heled a friend move a datsun shell, and when i found the mechanical load limit of my once infallable guns i tore my bicep tendon. Subsequently ill be employing a greater degree of care/different methodology at that time. I havent seen them, but the seller tells me the guy who tubbed it out also welded the bonnet and front gaurds together. With a veiw to making a tilt front.
  21. GREAT SUCCESS! Id rather be set on fire that own one of these. But theres something oddly satifying about this thread. You must be pretty stoked with the outcome! You might say its a Stella effort!
