borracho · 08-28-2009, 08:26 PM

Sick! Bro just a sick build. . . .

SexPanda · 08-28-2009, 08:31 PM

I dont hate it. I love it.

As a matter of fact, you are giving me ideas for my next project. And the brackets, if I just saw those, I'd think they were bought that way, from a company.

Love it. looking great!

RastaS13 · 08-28-2009, 09:06 PM

THANKS!!

I missed this reply. The brown ones are the 6-pin ones right? All that means is they're DPST, and usually 20/30 ratings also, but they switch two circuits at a time. Seriously, I'd replace them with 40A automotive relays @ ~$3/ea.

For big power stuff, I use high-inrush-current SPST relays from McMaster Carr (lately they've been supplying relays and harnesses made by Hella *the legit lighting company* made in Spain, good stuff!) - they're rated at 70 amps continuous, 80A for 1-minute intervals! Link - $13/ea, and you need the relay harness because the 87 and 30 pins are 3/8" wide spades, not the typical 1/4" quick disconnects. Link $5.

pahaf · 08-29-2009, 05:40 PM

this is one sick build. hopefully mines will be like this

Thanks for the links, i will just end up some 40A auto relays, instead of te blue/brown nissan relays.

THANKS!!

japslapsilvia · 03-25-2010, 08:34 PM

after a little bit of a haitus...im BACK...had to get some stuff in my life situated an give my back time to heal...plus it sucks to work in cold weather. anyways here is the latest progress.
got the underside of the car cleaned and painted....sorry for no pics

also removed the sound deatning and cleaned n painted the floor...also no pics

got my motor and tranny back togather

getting the drain line for the turbo set up

all the turbo lines mocked up...im going to have to change the water return line..

also finally got my tial 38mm W/G

also i got my JDM seat belts

getting the interior situated...i need a dash so anyone in DFW got one LMK

waiting for the motor to be installed...cusco motor mounts.

need to find a home for the power steering cooler

since i had it all apart thought i would clean n paint the pedals...i also put a few tack welds on the clutch and brake pedal brackes..in hindsight i sould have added supports....eh

for shits n giggles here is a pic of my sand blast cabint..its a work in progess...almost complete

and here is how she sits for the night

motor will be in this weekend so i can build my turbo outlet pipe and finally finish all the AN lines for the oil cooler/filter...then all the AN (push loc) for the power steering cooler.

THANKS!!

LOL!!

got both the intake and exhaust manifolds mocked on to i can start getting the plumbing situated. Also have to find a new home for the oil filter base....unfortunatly it wont fit there with the Greddy IM

may have to build a new downpipe...this one came with the turbo from a user on here....personally i dont like the way it looks and i think i can build one that will give me a little more room around the BMC

GSXRJJordan · 03-27-2010, 08:48 PM

Sweet, it's coming together!

Yes Sir!!!

Tom25666 · 03-28-2010, 08:21 PM

Thanks!!!

so since i have been building all the AN lines i needed to figure out a way to clean them properly. so i ended up building this little device

Just need to get another -6 AN fitting so I can clean out the fuel lines

Also got my fittings welded on for the power steering reservoir and the fitting on the pump.

Then I acquired this guy….but I gotta get the other side…..anyone have the intake side to this guy please let me know.

Thanks!!
