RBS14 · 10-14-2003, 02:32 PM

If you call a front end everything minus the bumper you just might be in luck. haha NO WAY ur gonna have a bumper by then but we both know that so why am i even posting this? Guess its because im a whore.

TRUENOCOUPE · 10-14-2003, 03:07 PM

When I had my S13 I bought an AERO bumper front end, Hood, Fenders,Lights etc etc... BRAND NEW!

Im thinking of selling it. I only had my S13 for two weeks then sold it. So I have this front end at my house for nothing.

Make me an offer.

OOhhhhhhhh widebody fenders! BLING BLING DAWG!!!! haha they are so sweet!

Theres another track event down in that area (at the Streets of Willow) on the 24th

www.redlinetrackevents.com

No such thing as too much track-time, so I figure I'll make the most of those three days, and the 200+ mile drive to get down there.. I hope the car is up for it

unfortunately for those of us who drift, Streets of Willow wont allow it anymore..great track though..wish they'd open it up to drifting again...

that coupled with the 5 hr drive from Santa Cruz makes the 2 1/2 - 2 3/4 hr drive to Buttonwillow so much more appealing..

have fun though...

The AERO bumper won't fit on the Silvia front end from what I told.

The AERO front end that I have is all fiberglass, Even the hood and fender. The guy that sold it to me said that if you ever wreck the bumper you won't be able to replace it with any bumper since they don't fit. IONO. Would they?

problem with using fiberglass is that then you have to use fiberglass everything..if you use a uerethane bumper with FRP fenders then if you ever bump anything the shock is transfered directly to the fenders, via the bumper which is flexible, and they will break...

maybe that is what he meant...basically you have to use FRP with FRP...

anyway...bring the bumper to the event...i'd like to check it out...how much are you looking to get for it?..

thanks

TRUENOCOUPE · 10-15-2003, 10:14 AM

If I sell the Bumper itself... What am I going to do with the front end?

I don't have an S13 anymore, So I need to sell the whole set. Either way im picking one up soon. I want a coupe!

Will there be loaner helmets available? Last time I went to Buttonwillow they had a backroom full of helmets they rented out for $10 each (It was a weekend though).

On a related note, does anyone know of a place that sells helmets in the bay area?

no loaner helmets for these weekday, private, events that i know of...although Al does usually bring an extra one or two..

and as for buying one... www.helmetcity.com is a good place to start...you will find your best deals online for sure..

TRUENOCOUPE · 10-17-2003, 04:47 PM

1 Lady drifter back out. Car problem.

The Nissan OEM Aero Bumper is urethane. I know it is cus I have it.

So I am guessing he meant you should use fiberglass everything cush ya, I'd assume that a bump would induce breakage to the other fiberglass parts and not the urethane...

Another reason not to get all that fiberglass junk.

Nope...I was the one that had to back out...looks like my clutch is gone...and I can't risk having to pay 300 bucks to tow my car home if it dies at the track. I'm so bummed...I can't even begin to explain how sad I am.

Anyone have any suggestions for what type of clutch I should buy next?

Fibercus · 10-17-2003, 10:44 PM

That sux.....6 pucks suck tho so it doesn't surprise me.

With ur kind of funds, i'd go wit an OS giken or a HKS twin plate! There is a reason all of the HIGH quality clutches are sprung and not puck. Pucks wear out faster as well as raping your driveline severely! They are VERY hard on cars. you get my point.
