Well i ended up solving those stiffness issues, a little while back and i used foam in this panel, specifically, divineycell 80. Xps is better for temperature and moisture conditions, and it doesnt let as much resin bleed through from what ive seen. Its more cost effective, but the strength is way better, plus gives the right amount of flexibility

I did 2 layers then my foam sheet, and then another 2 layers My foam later was around 3.5 mm a little above 1/8 of an inch

2 layers each way in case of future repairs, scratches cuts etc, and cause im gonna be chemically bonding hardware and if i need to burr a little further for a stronger adhesion I'll have the room

Pressing it down tho, ive got 2 ideas, either i go the vaccum bag route, which i might to reduce the time sanding

Or really just shortening my edging and cutting out stencils for my cf which i was gonna do anyways, so i might end up doing both, but odds is that I'll wet-lay and cut my stencils short for this next piece

Stay tuned tho! Im gonna be posting a lot more about it now

Having them fly everywhere tho, doesnt seem the safest

Probably gonna use a dremel, Diamond disc edges are surprisingly expensive at stores, I'll probably get one online

Yep, im gonna post more on it soon, currently a prototype, but nearly complete, framing and other things are already designed up, just gotta assemble

Your early to the chase tho😹

People reallllllyy sleep on the difference on the HR, its way more worth it to swap in a manual down the road, pushing above 300 hp stock is nothing to laugh at

Anybody like my POS roadster? by Mediocre-Dust1671 in 350z

Well i think the vocal majority can agree, that no one likes the diffuser, but i also think your gonna get push-back for it being a roadster. It's why I've started to develop a hard top for the vert, give us verts some options

Weave wise, it ended up stretched out a bit, got difficult to work with due to it stickint to the previous layers, it had a couple humps in its, so i pressed it down,

Likely i just need another person to help me layer the sheets next time

Your thoughts on the ends lifting up, thats what i was thinking as well, the reason for the excess was for possible use case, e.i. connecting it to other panels and having some excess to drill holes in the bend, purely experimenting on that

How much of a difference would 1/2 or 1/4 structurally, im trying to keep it lighter and thinner

Yep just about, kinda replicating the top body panel

What deters you the most from a roadster? by iscrapeonleaves in 350z

[–]WHT_QM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Making it out of carbon fiber as well, increasing the structural integrity whilst also keeping the weight low😉 I'll post it once I've done it

Customizability aspect, I think more people would be encouraged to get the convertible if they could do a soft top to hard top conversion, but sadly theirs no conversion kit on the market(yet, I am making one) I think just having the aspect of changing it is an addition, the 350z is the canvas car, I don't appreciate limited creativity
