FuzzayD Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Yes yes yes yes you painted the rack yellow, i can't wait to see what other colors get put under this. Are you really going to drive it that low? pre flat tyre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bubblegoose Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 LOL at everybody there is no way i would get away with daily driving at that height because.. 1, the popo would bum my ass 2, i wouldnt be able to drive anywhere without getting 'beached as' 3, personaly i think it looks ugly ground clearance will be set to min legal req' (- a few mils ) i was just playing with the suspension min height max camber, but the sump is diffinatly indestructible for the occasional slow grind over speed bumps ect as ive seen plenty sumps where out over time/too many trips to the bk carparks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubblegoose Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 bro that bitch might not get punctured or dented, but fuck me you are gonna hit a catseye or some such and that fucker is coming right off thats why it has a crumple zone (if hit hard the rials can move up and back 10mm) the main reason behind it all is 'grind protection' but welding rails directly to the shit soft sump would be pointless, ive also gained a small amount more oil this way too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bubblegoose Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Lame, rack conversion was gonna be sweet! i know, only way to get all the geometry right and have it all legit was to move engine back 15mm cut a chunk out the block, slice open the freshly painted fire wall and move the joint right back into the cab.... then try and rework the header pipes round it all im too lazy for all that shit so gona slam that box back in and should get it back on its feet alot quicker/cheaper/not as awes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteretep Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 hey man, can you explain to me how and why the needles get moved? i'll need to do the same on my car but you seem to know what your on about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubblegoose Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 on the needles they have grooves in the top and a circlip (ill post pics this week) by moving the clip down the needle you lift the needle up, the needle goes into the big fuel hole in the bottom so lifting it up will allow more fuel to flow out earlyer. the needle only has control over up to 2/3 throttle to richen above that you need bigger mains (1.8mm as a base for 2000cc on r1 carbs) lifting the needle is not always necessary but more often than not it is, so im doing it now as its a fiddly as job they have tiny tiny springs that i always drop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
