A nice sunny day spent cutting welding and grinding...I know its not as it should be but I just want to make sure all the rust has gone and clean metal is in its place.
The rad support panel had been cut and welded a few times in it's past so I decided to cut it out below the top bar, I will make my own brackets to hold the Rad and IC

 

[datsun dave]

Glad that you also made some progress in todays good weather

Looks good, and the company look like they know what they are talking about, which definitely is a bonus!

That is a very nice design, I was thinking of actually going for that one, but I went for a slightly smaller one. Which just makes installation that little bit easier but in your case with custom rad brackets, you shouldnt have as much of a problem to get it to fit.

Here is my Intercooler I'm going to convert to a charge cooler. It an garret AiResearch cooler, apparently used on Zakspeed capri turbo's in the 80's. The charge face area is 13" x 7" vertical core. Problem being it's probably too thick for the outside air to get through without some serious ram air setup

twoforty why did you not gust nos it its a lot moor hp for the money

 

[twoforty]

nos is a temporary fix in my eyes, why use nos when you can have the power all the time with no refills?
Not that I have ever driven a car with nos, is it all or nothing or can you have progressive increments? how long does a bottle last and how much does it cost to refill?

I think Nitrous is good for the drag strip - but that's about it.

 

[twoforty]

bit more work done

waiting for the volvo jokes

The badge is missing.

 

[Mr.G]

Fancy these?

Joking aside, it looks nice and sterdy. You're getting their Simon!

 

[twoforty]

Haaaaha
On another note got the megaview for my megasquirt ecu up and running

 

[Mr.G]

You Genius!

Very nice! What does that gizmo exactly do then? Can it be used with your LC1 to show you the AFR readings? I didn't buy a guage with my LC1 and I am wondering what to get as it would be nice to keep an eye on the readings whilst driving.

 

[twoforty]

Well the LM1 I have already give a AF reading but yes this will give a scrolling readout
In Runtime Ticker-tape mode, the parameters displayed include current engine operation state (cranking, running, etc), enrichments, barometric pressure, engine MAP, coolant and intake air temperature, all computed enrichments, and injector pulsewidth. The automatic scroll mode can be frozen at any time in order to monitor any desired variable. In addition, any monitored parameter which is outside of normal operating conditions will "flash" on the display, alerting the driver of a possible adverse situation in real time.
The configurator mode will allow the user to adjust any of the configuration parameters. This is useful for field-tuning and variable tweaking. It is not designed to replace the PC Configurator for tuning, but allows for simple parameter modification as needed.

It comes in kit form but only takes an hour to put together, link by rs232 to the ecu.

But can it tell you the time as the clock never works in a 240Z

 

[twoforty]

My clock works

 

[datsun dave]

My clock works

NO WAY never had a 240z that the clock worked

Did you fix it ?????

 

[twoforty]

nope! it worked when I bought the car. Never even thought about it. The backlight is a different matter altogether
