Phixius Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 I believe he is referring to what things onces were, digging up old artifacts to what things use to be. (Build thread?).... not an off topic chat room amongst friends... 1 Link to comment
Tristin Posted August 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 Well I will say its my build thread so... But to make everyone else happy since that's the name of the game apparantly, I met up with Hobbes the Cat and acquired the appropriate bolts for my project so now that can proceed. Oics as soon as that's completed. I've also developed a bit of an internal rattle/scale somewhere in the engine. Still trying to narrow down an exact component that's causing it. Seems to be coming from the drivers-side middle somewhere. Link to comment
RedBanner Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 Still trying to narrow down an exact component that's causing it. Seems to be coming from the drivers-side middle somewhere. Ok well its not the fuel pump, alt, or starter. Have you ever put a wrench to the manifold nuts? The heat sheilds rust out around the mounting bolts andstart rattleing Link to comment
Laecaon Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 Heat shields on 510s, lolz, I have never seen one, and I dont think they came with EGR either, I wanna say the only smog equipment is the Air pump, and dual points... Link to comment
Tristin Posted August 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 Never touched the manifold. I have a smog exhaust manifold, but no smog equipment; seems a smog block was swapped in at some point. Anyway, Ive had no crazy sounds since Ive had it and litterally all of a sudden yesterday I get the noise. Its not trasmission related as it makes the sound in and out of gear. Im still searching around for anything possibly loose that I can just tighten down. Link to comment
q-tip Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 Check the mount for the kick down cable at the back of the block, pretty sure i tightened that but it was late and i dont remember for sure Link to comment
Tristin Posted August 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 Will do. I just got out of lunch and the movies with the girlfriend (its her birthday) so Ill be taking a look at it soon. Luckily I can hit the movies with a rock from my house so we just walk. Link to comment
Tristin Posted August 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 Well I fixed the rattle scrape. I was poking around while the car was idling and I narrowed it down to around the carb. I looked under the carb and noticed that a pipe for the emissions that once had a plastic cap, no longer does. I placed my thumb over it, the rattling stopped. I removed my thumb and it came back. I placed my thumb back on it, and pulled on the throttle a bit and got no rattle/scrape like I was. Looks like I just blew the cap off while driving. Now I dont know what exactly was rattling, but I at least fixed it. Link to comment
sedition88 Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 Whew! Just went through this whole thing. Love the car, and killing me that I'm stuck in a lull with mine Link to comment
Tristin Posted August 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 Whew! Just went through this whole thing. Love the car, and killing me that I'm stuck in a lull with mine Wow, 48pgs huh? Thanks for the compliment. Dont worry too much... I havent done anything major to the car yet either. Im in a bit of a funds shortage so almost all progress has stopped. I see you made good work of the 4dr. base I gave you. Link to comment
sedition88 Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 Yes, thanks for getting me that. Worked out that it was already orange. At least you can drive yours, mines got a blown motor. Was waiting on a guy with a running L16, but he always seems to be busy. Hoping this job I've been trying to get works out, then I might just skip past the L motor and get myself a VE for it instead.

datsunfreak Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 I might just skip past the L motor and get myself a VE for it instead. Yes, but with an L16 you could have it running in a day. B) Says the guy who has a 1200 with an engine swap that he hasn't driven in over 4 years, and who has a 510 with an internally stock L16 that runs fine and refuses to die. ^_^ Link to comment
sedition88 Posted September 1, 2012 Report Share Posted September 1, 2012 Yes, but with an L16 you could have it running in a day. B) I'll probably still stick with the L16, because I can get it for $100 and I had to hunt down a full wiring harness for it as well Link to comment
Tristin Posted September 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2012 Well, Super Clean is the shit. I took the car to work last night to use their air compressor set up. I blew all the loose shot out of my engine bay in preparation for heavy cleaning. I'm taking it to a self-serve car wash but wanted to pre-clean it to loosen everything up. I had bought some super clean on a recommendation and it's amazing! It cut through all the shit in my engine bay (dirt, grime, caked on old oil, anything) and left it really easy to removed with a simple wet rag. I can't wait to use a brush and a little bit of pressurized water at the car wash. Pictures once the bay is clean. Link to comment
