i'm curious as to what the problem was.

Ian · 05-14-2005, 09:54 AM

do you think you could take a couple pics of your IC mounting and the venting going to it?

i wanna copy you in the next couple of weeks...i'm all set, apparently someone had given me altima fans that are in fairly good condition, so i'm gonna use those

The mounting and the venting is not done yet sadly. There was not time for it this past week so I've been sorting and wiring the interior...

I'm going on a trip and will be back to work on this project in june.
I'll show you the pics then.

Progress is great...looks badass maeda. I'm jealous of your ultra short IC piping.

RBS14 · 05-17-2005, 07:28 PM

yeah, I pretty much rock.

hahahah I wish.

Maeda · 06-19-2005, 11:58 PM

ALMOST DONE.....

Fuel leaks
Oil leaks
Coolant leaks
OH MY....

My car basically self destructed the day after I came back from my trip...

After some tidying and a new i/c it looked like this...

STILL a couple more things to do....

sideview_180sx · 06-20-2005, 01:44 AM

is that a returnless fuel line setup, wear is the return line, all I see is a fuel line going into both sides. oil and coolant leaks you're on your own for that, just have a mop to clean it all up when you leave haha

When I do a swap for someone or if I’m making a car to sell on Ebay, I spend the $10 for 4 cans of Engine gunk remover then one Orange Citrus gunk remover for an nice sent, then 4hours pressure washing everything. It looks nice, plus it makes a big diff on how much you get on ebay, aswell as a nice gesture I do for my customers that request a swap. Got to be professional. 5hours of your time makes a big difference.

The fuel return is in the center where the FPR is.

BTW nice work snail.

just saw this pic in the speed dreamz thread. You can see the difference in extra time spent cleaning between snail's work and this LOL.

LOL, Thanks, Yeah I saw their swap

. I was going to say something, or atleast give them some tips until I saw they were a sponser. I kept my mouth shut. Now I see most people clowned them for it. I would say something but I think they learned their lesson, and not ever post something so hideous again.
