The tech section use to be that tech now has turned into well something else. Maybe boredom of the old guys and inexperience from new members not sure I guess every board goes through its stages. So I'm starting a technically finder thread, no you don't get a lollipop and no you don't get a star only JNR gets those. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
I want this to become something like the picture thread in anything goes. BUT I want two parts.
1) I want the part you found either custom made by a guy like me in his own shop or the company and 2) where you heard about it saw it used, could be a you tube or street fire video, ebay ad but would rather be a awesome make you want to cry or grow wood build thread. If you alienate yourself to one type of car its very very hard to learn and think outside the box. Look at the GN world with a ton of the same mods on every car and the lightning trucks. The trucks are just now realizing you can use alcohol injection, hello WWII was over in 45. The Mustangs ran the stuff then doesn't anyone watch discovery channel and drive a truck.
Remember the v10 in a box old school M3 or the lime green 240, or the guy in Greece that showed the Evo board that the US isn't the only place building cars..... I want builds like that
Like the link below...... Found a company that does carbon fiber prop shafts as well as some sick metal ones. yea sexy, don't ask how much because I don't know but here it is part 1) click me
and
part 2) RB30 GTR full carbon fiber monster build..........Enjoy
Yea yea I know its not a VR4 and no sh*t we can't get a GTr in the country except the trans eating 350/370z look alike cars but the parts found in this thread could be used with the knowledge gained. I know I'm not the only one that has thought of a tubular subframe and inconnel headers and exhaust and others may have never thought of custom lines being crimped instead of full AN stuff. There's some true genius going into this skyline and with enough of these monster builds posted maybe some of us old crusties could show more interest because I for one get bored. I bet money I've been building cars longer than alot of you guys have been alive and there some on here before I was alive. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif I use to build cars to go fast now just do cool projects to say I did. If the economy was better I'd probably dump all the parts floating in the garage and just build a car or two a year and call it good. But could build two now days and sit on two and go hungry for 4 or 6 years.
Now go do work, find cool threads mitsubishi or go karts I don't care.
