  1. thanks dude. pacemaker do two did styles.. one same as these and one that goes 6 into 3 into 1... interesting
  2. grouping of tubes is wrong.. just realized
  3. it's actually quite a nice manifold( in my opinion anyway ) definitely not home made. but hard to tell with all the saggy heat wrap. got any pics of the xr6 ones?
  4. Was expecting to lose some bottom end... but I got absolutely nothing up top. Reckon its just the factoryish exhaust limiting peak flow and strangling the top end? it looks like a fairly sweet bit of pipework and bending (and pretty new) except its wisper quiet so the muffler must be a heap of crap. Anyone ever seen an M90 on one of these with suckthrough carb?
  5. loose another inch and it'd be 100% sweeter looking looks great anyway
  6. just watched 31 and 32. fuck you have a great sense of humor, I crack up at the random shit you slot in- makes it a real enjoyable watch. how gay did I just sound?
  7. bro please tell us more about casting those adaptors. I'm keen to know the reasons for the shape of ya plug as its way different to the final item.
  8. I didn't realize that te brooke saddles are just leather in the middle- must deform heeps and be cumfy as when riding!!!
  9. does it shrink much each time? looks great!
  10. a scratch start tig is the worst abomination on the face of the planet. the first thing you have to do before you start welding with one is fuck your electrode. i fucking hate them. a few tries and Iv had no further issues using one of the scratch start ones we have at work. just gotta be patient. the biggest bastard is the manual gas knob.
  11. well then he needs to size his turbo respectably. I agree with you, don't want to argue just saying its not a necessity ( but then neither is a 2j trueno I guess!!!)
  12. http://performanceforums.com/forums/showthread.php?67216619-2JZ-head-porting/ IMO I would exhaust ( pun not intended but I'll take it) all other options before spending loads if doh on head porting. they already flow enough for more than what he will probably be able to use realistically and they are not poor flowing heads stock compared to other engines out there. remember it has two extra cylinders to breath through for a given hp than a 3s. just IMO. I had a tt supra and head porting was the last thing needed from the research I did.
  13. agree! what did it cost to have the casting done? you just made the plug? I'd never have thought if taking engine mounts that far, simply awesome.
  14. If this wasn't so expensive it'd be perfect for going on a truck chassis. Theres a second one on tm for like $140!!

  16. You can already buy tamia datsun 240's that look better
  17. too small I reckon?? I'm in the process of sorting my shit so I can have the second one. mine is an old rusty toy truck on lunchbox chassis
  18. agree about pony tail only. put some decent bars on it ( clip on's? is that what the short ones that bolt to forks are called?) and don't refit that horrible bad end mirror. also trim front guard and remove girder. leave starter off- sweet weight reduction. and take off EVERYTHING not necessary for one person to ride it.
  19. I dont understand how u can fuck up with a holesaw? iv done plenty and never had a problem? middle drill but holds holesaw in one place so it can't fuck off sideways.. or are you guys trying to use holesaws without that middle drill? haha I have also done a starter hole then done rest with a jigsaw with metal blade. worked mint.
  20. wow, had forgotten about the lunchbox and midnight pumpkin. iv always wanted a Baka beetle. local hobby store had one when I was very young- I hassled t dad for it for months. when he finally gave in we went down and it had been sold. ended up with a quick drive jeep wrangler which was alllll good.
  21. holesaw. just use a decent one that's made to cut metal not wood.
  22. wow. could turn that into a sweet beach buggy
  23. my mrs and I laughed so hard at the lack of stickers on non visible side. such an Asian thing to do
  24. i love this shit.
  25. aahahaha, im just uop to the 3rd vid of theirs. quite a good watch
