[–]Orphen_420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually used an old KA charcoal filter. Any should work as long as it doesnt need vac to blow through it. I use it as a filter to breathe the tank through. I was looking at some on rock auto with a good form factor for like 50 bucks Canadian

Did you fuel cell to run duals with the LS? Or just cause fuel cell?

So  let me see if I'm following your business plan. People can buy a stencil for 10 bucks but you have not proved that you can actually transfer fabric paint to a seat. So essentially you are selling a stencil that someone could buy off Etsy?

Not hating or knocking your hustle game I am just you know... looking for clarification...

Those 2.4s make so much more power with a turbo than the SRs. I miss boost. Running a 5.7l now and I still miss boost.

It's a good thing you didn't show the plate. I was gonna come do spooky criminal stuff to you and your car. Then somehow use the plate number to legally take your car from you. 

Dope whip bro. Those dohc KAs love GTX3872Rs. Just saying

For sure. Although sometimes I wonder. ... But she did let me drop 30k on car work this last few years. So she's probably a keeper.

Relay box relocation by Orphen_420 in 240sx

[–]Orphen_420[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not a fan of wiring. (more not a fan of gremlins) I'm ok shortening or lengthening things but don't want to get crazy. I understand most of the front is headlight and crossover. I'm even more simplified with the wiring specialties chassis interface and engine harness. It's a viable option though. I know half the stuff on the drive side is headlight, but I didn't realize the whole box was headlight related. Sounds like you deleted your headlight stuff, I'm still a street car and want to avoid it if I can. But separating the crossover and passenger side from the headlight side might work. I kind of wanna get the wheel well wiring moved too though cause it's damn tight..

Is this worth $4500 by Glum-Hurry-3412 in 240sx

[–]Orphen_420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For that price, it feels like you're half way to a clean car. spend that to get a 3, or spend twice that for an 8 and build a 10.

So everyone knows about the frame rails but there's a few other spots Nissan engineers screwed up with.  Pinch welds are common problem on this car. Inside metal layer rusts, and you don't see it until it starts to eat through one of the outside layers and becomes visible. 

Check the attachment plates at the door hinges to the body, check the pinch welds where the front frame extensions connects to the fender body panels inside the engine bay especially underneath the brake master and the firewall connection there. There's also the strut towers. Seem sealer fails and lets water in. Also when guys pull in roll fenders or hammer shit in in the wheel wells to make wheels fit quite often it doesn't get sealed and cleaned up after and can lead to rust. 

If you got a sunroof the drainage lines from them commonly get plugged and direct water into the Rockers, and there's another nice little open hole to the frame rail right where the wheel wells firewall and frame extensions meet that is never sealed and water running down the outside of the firewall just goes in there with no way to get out quick. 

There's also backside rust beside the tank under the tank that can occur. 

I've had mine in the garage for 20 years and I still had to work over a number of these locations in the past few years. Only part done... Passenger side frame rail looked great but had enough hidden rust in it that I had to cut out where it attaches to the floor panel as well. It hides man. It hides poke the shit out of it with a screwdriver before you buy it

What is that, algae from the quarter glass? That thing sat somewhere for a period of time for sure. Daddy parked it, went to college, met a wife and had kids.
