MicroMachinery Posted September 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2010 I was SUPPOSED to have it done yesterday, but due to unforeseen events I have to wait until Friday <_< Lame. I'm only going 2".. I don't plan on a turbo or anything bigger than the L20b, so 2 1/4" wouldn't be necessary. Quote Link to comment
zerow Posted September 21, 2010 Report Share Posted September 21, 2010 I was SUPPOSED to have it done yesterday, but due to unforeseen events I have to wait until Friday <_< Lame. I'm only going 2".. I don't plan on a turbo or anything bigger than the L20b, so 2 1/4" wouldn't be necessary. The 2" will sound just right. I plan to run 2" as well, given the same circumstances. No Turbo, No bigger than L20B (for now...) No Problem! :D Quote Link to comment
bonvo Posted September 21, 2010 Report Share Posted September 21, 2010 i went 2 1/4 simply so i had the exhaust done for whatever mods i do in the future and i dont have to worry about ever redoing it i have a few cool ideas for what ill do to mine for more "umph" but to be honest the 2 1/4 doesnt hinder performance on mine and it flows really well i can stand 5 feet behind my car and the exhaust is still hitting my legs micro your gonna love new exhaust no leaks and the car will actually be able to breathe Quote Link to comment
MicroMachinery Posted September 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 Ok, so in my last update, I showed you how I savagely removed my old tired exhaust. Now I'm going to show you pics of my new exhaust. I didn't even think to take pictures as it was up on the lift being built(it had been a long week and I was tired and in a rush to get up to Noob's party), so I took pics afterward in my driveway. 1 Quote Link to comment
I'm BLUE Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 very cool man ^^^ ! Gotta love new exhaust's , especially nice tones :cool: would you recommend a "Borla" ? Quote Link to comment
MicroMachinery Posted September 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 Absolutely. They are guaranteed for a million miles, and I have yet to hear a muffler that I appreciate as much as this one. There are a number of different models of Borla, and this one is actually a custom made one. A good friend of mine works for an aftermarket company which Borla makes custom mufflers for.

I'm BLUE Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 NICE !!! a million miles ? so its not going to last as long as our datsuns :lol: ? I think I will serious consider looking into getting one of these for my 240z ( when the time is right obviously ) Glad it worked out for you man , and even better sounds like you really like the set-up and that's always great when things go that way :cool: Quote Link to comment

MicroMachinery Posted September 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 I'll try and get some. I only have my phone to take pictures.. I think the audio on it leaves something to be desired.. maybe I'll find something that can make it happen. Quote Link to comment
MicroMachinery Posted September 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 Ok, I got a few videos w/ some pretty weak audio. I don't think it was necessarily the phone's fault, though. In the first vid, I had the phone too close, so it's distorted. In the second vid, I think I was receiving a message or a call, so that's what the buzzing is. As soon as the third video makes it to my photobucket account, I'll post it. Enjoy! http://s686.photobucket.com/albums/vv224/MicroMachinery/76%20610/?action=view¤t=Video023.mp4 http://s686.photobucket.com/albums/vv224/MicroMachinery/76%20610/?action=view¤t=Video024.mp4 Quote Link to comment
MicroMachinery Posted September 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 Ok, just got the third video. It's by far the best one. http://s686.photobucket.com/albums/vv224/MicroMachinery/76%20610/?action=view¤t=Video025.mp4 Quote Link to comment
The Dat-side Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 Damn that sounds hot! I had a Borla on a past car, didn't have the car too long but I loved the way it sounded. Any specs on the muffler? Quote Link to comment

Any specs on the muffler? I know some guys that work for a world class aftermarket company, and Borla makes custom mufflers for them. I'm not sure what specs you're wanting, but it's stainless muffler, w/ a 2" inlet/outlet, and the inlet is offset, and the outlet is centered. It's not a particular model, because they're custom built for that specific company. Quote Link to comment
I'm BLUE Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 From what I can tell on the audio ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, It sounds pretty dang good , must have a great sounding tone in person :cool: Sounds good through the rpm's ! Quote Link to comment

MicroMachinery Posted October 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2010 Alright. So the other day as I was getting the exhaust on the 610 fabbed up, I was able to do a walk around underneath the car, and to my disappointment, I saw that there were wires protruding from the front passenger side tire. :( This was a real bummer, because I had planned on leaving directly after getting the exhaust finished to Tacoma to Noob's pad for his party. This pretty much put a block on that plan, as it was 7:30 by the time my Datsun was off the lift. I decided to sleep on it. The following day, I got up and decided I'd go look at what I had in the stash. To my surprise, I was able to find 4 tires.. already mounted and balanced. They were mounted on the wagon that I've had collecting dust for the past year, and I'd been overlooking them since I made the purchase. Though a bit gaudy, my only other option was to go buy a new pair. F that. So I did a hasty dismount and got the wagon onto 2 jack stands and a pair of spares. The 610 was jacked up, SSR's removed (:(), and the new ones put on. After putting them on, I took a step back, and was actually surprised that they went pretty well on the old fastback. Here are some pics. This is nice too, because the tires look to be close to brand new. These will last a while, and give me a chance to finish the welding and repairs on the SSR's. The PO was an abusive master :angry: Quote Link to comment
hillbillyhector Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 I'm really diggin the striping on the coupe...retro-correct feel!! Quote Link to comment
MicroMachinery Posted October 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2010 Got a fun package in the mail. It was packaged really well, which pleased me :) Ah.. yes.. there are two of them.. Mmmm.. twins... "What's your name, beautiful?" I like that. ;) Quote Link to comment
skunk Posted October 4, 2010 Report Share Posted October 4, 2010 those are going to be nice Quote Link to comment
MicroMachinery Posted October 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2010 Oh yeah :) I got em in the 610, but I had to fab up some brackets to mate the seats to the stock 610 mounts. I'll post pics Quote Link to comment
The Dat-side Posted October 4, 2010 Report Share Posted October 4, 2010 I just saw these seats in a car on CL. Thought about begging him to sell me the seats. Lookin' sharp man. I really like the SSRs but the "new" wheels look good too. That car needs a VQ swap. It's looks so Jap-Muscle car. Quote Link to comment
Skib Posted October 4, 2010 Report Share Posted October 4, 2010 dude thats killer, I love your 610 :cool: 1 Quote Link to comment
