NorCalDime Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 So Any updates???? As far as i know it is still just waiting on wiring. The crappy weather has kindof put that on hold.... Quote Link to comment
Charlie69 Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 We need an update. Please!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment
WagDatto Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 Brakes still need to be done. Rear brake lines are in her hands, she just needs to find a nice enough day to crawl down there and install them. Then she can fill the master and bleed the brakes. We have no idea if the brake cylinders are good or not, but she'll find out when she presses them! Ebrake still needs to be hooked up, too. Also, I think the exhaust needs to be welded up as well... Other than those things, we're waiting for a break in the weather to be able to get the wiring finished. Then it's ready to drive! Quote Link to comment

NICKLE&DIME Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 Hey Kait, are you going to make it to the meet Feb 21 with your turbo dime? Cant wait to see it in person :D Quote Link to comment
KA-Kait Posted February 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 Hey Kait, are you going to make it to the meet Feb 21 with your turbo dime? Cant wait to see it in person :D Hahaha I wish. Unfortunately it still needs to get wired. Im HOPING it will be done this month, but I can't really guarantee anything because, well, im not doing it. So the poor thing has been sitting in my drive way for the time being. ALTHOUGH today i went to a Buick Swap meet in downtown sac and I picked up this Glass Mirror Datsun 280zx thingy for two bucks! i saw it and went "HEY! why not?!" Ill post a picture of it later.

WagDatto Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 Just got the motor at my house 2 days ago, so I'm pulling intake manifolds and blower casings to take pictures. Says the man with no Datsun AND no updates to his Beast thread in decades. Quote Link to comment
KA-Kait Posted February 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 So I went to the Sacramento meet today for a little bit, and while I was out there two things happened. Number One being that I got a ton of SHIT for making no progress on my car. (which resulted in a very bitter me) and Number Two I purchased a wiring harness from some man in blue. whoever you were, THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! Either way, I left the meet way early because, well, My boyfriend and I decided it was time to work on the Dime. Get home, change and we dove right in. Here's Anthony working on the engine bay wiring done, ugly, but done (for the most part) and things kinda thrown in there quickly in order to see if we can fire it up. just in case....you never know... >.< I'll let the video explain the rest. SO thats about it.... Maybe I can convince WagDatto to come to my house sometime this week and look at it with me. :\ Quote Link to comment
78kingcab Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 right on.....so close but so far away , keep it up Quote Link to comment
WagDatto Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 Tuesday I'm busy for sure, going to the movies.... Maybe tomorrow? Or maybe later in the day sometime this week? We'll see if we can figure it out! Test for fuel, test for spark... Still have the mechanical pump, so I'm assuming fuel delivery is good. I'm assuming the dizzy isn't firing a spark to the cylinders, which makes for bad times when you want engine to turn over! We'll get it rocked out soon, Kait. Quote Link to comment
