Phixius Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 Love the pictures. Maybe its been discussed before, but what welder you using? Who is welding in the pictures?... You take picuters while buddy randomly makes "weld"/slag sparks... or vise vera??, or you making said welds with camera on delay... Hard to weld with arm extended like that.. kina like someone who has the gangsta lean, seat all the way back reaching the wheel with there fingertips (who the fuck races like that?)... hard to control, bring your arm in... Its easier to hold wieght closer to your body then further out, (leverage) and vision sight seem to be compromised ... and like what people said before....more heat....id rather chase a weld then have pigeon shit...

jrock4224 Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 says the expert welder .....i like the ca but seriously which car it go's in???? i would asume loweta since this car is yard art at best.... i got 6 more of those welding tables u use if u need more ... mine ar e plastic so careful with heat Link to comment
jrock4224 Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 yup i play with legos. i spend a pretty penny on them each year. i collect old sets too. to date i have about 10 sets that are complete ranging from 60's to late 70's. i build remote control rock crawlers and such with 4 link solid axle shiftable transfer cases and working winches and lights. all legos. heres a shot of something ive built. i take legos more seriously than datsuns. i have a tat of a minifig behind my ear and 5 out of 7 days a week im wearing a lego shirt.... they are my life, been playing with them since 3 years old. and i thought the soft core chick left u cause datsun..... i fuct with rc's and thats a chick repelant....i can only imagine how fast a lego addict runs chicks off.... 1 Link to comment

]2eDeYe Posted October 11, 2012 Report Share Posted October 11, 2012 Hard to weld with arm extended like that.. kina like someone who has the gangsta lean, seat all the way back reaching the wheel with there fingertips (who the fuck races like that?)... hard to control, bring your arm in...

To expand a bit on this... When I bought some welding rod for the first time, yes stick welding, I read the box and it had rules for welding on the side. Rule #1 has always stuck with me. Welding Rule # 1. Get comfortable. 1 Link to comment

INDY510 Posted October 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2012 . It's a 89-90 S13 180sx non-turbo CA18DE ..... probably not for this car,, but it fits alot better than the L16 did with rocker panels Link to comment

INDY510 Posted October 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2012 . the L16 would be sticking through the hood another 2-3" .. it's actually starting to get fun, and I can see a light through the new firewall hole :rofl: Link to comment
