Thank you very much for the picture. Apreciate the input.


That most def. does not look like a 2.5" piece of pipe. The car is on stands right now, so I took the floor jack and put it under the passenge side wheel and lifted it up. This way I can see where things sit when the car is on the road. It seems like there is enough room for a 2.5" pipe there but it has to be positioned just right. I will probably weld a bracket on some tubing and have it bolt up so it can't move, or I will just use a 1' piece of silicone hose. That way even if it does touch something once in a while nothing will happen, the hose will just compress.

 

Nice.. Id be worried about the piping through that small space though..

 

Wow this is moving alot quicker than I thought it will be done in plenty of time for spring.

 

This is coming along very nicely. As posted above i believe the scavenge pump should take care of the oil return issues.

 

Why dont you try and sell the Utec while you are doing this project and buy the Haltech....it may sell before you are finished

 

I will post it in the FS section right away.

 

He is working to fast, it will only be up for a day or two

Post it in "Market Place" both on My35z and also G35driver

I tend to agree...he is the fastest I have seen to date

 

My wife tells me the same thing,

Not a member at G35driver, I guess I will have to register.


I am kind of stuck right now, I need a few 45 deg silicone couplers and maybe a couple of 90's as well.

 

If you need a good place to order from - http://www.intakehoses.com/

 

Call GTM or Forged...they keep that stuff in stock ...if not JonnyC link is good.

 

^^thanks for the suggestions on silicone couplers guys, but I found that ebay has the best deals on those. For me it's all about finding someone that can ship for cheap as I am up in Canada. For some reason I get the shaft every time something gets shipped up here.

 

I'm sure you already know this, but spend the extra $ and get boost clamps, dont use the regular hardware store clamps. It will save you alot of headaches and keep silicone hoses from popping off the pipes.

 

These are all I ever use for clamps:

You are refering to worm gear clamps and yes they are not made to hold under pressure.

 

Damn nice welds you got. How long you been welding?

I used to weld, then stopped for a few months and now bought a mig welder again but i need to buy the argon gas for it. Welding is like a sport, if you stop doing it, you lose the hang of it.

 

Funny you say that becaust I was thinking that my welding has deterioreted. It is true, if you don't weld for a while it takes a bit of time to get the touch back.

I am not a welder, it's just something I picked up while working during summer months, about 10 years ago now. I am an Electronics Engineering Tech., but really enjoy fabricating so I guess it's a hobby. It is all tig welded though, not mig. I have never tried mig welding but from what understand it's the easiest out of the 3 basic welding techniques. I am not sure which one is more difficult, tig or arc/stick. I guess it all depends on how much time you spend on each.

 

thats sick, great job. cant wait to see it done

 

good job man...i am in it to see the finished results

 

Any updates?
