edekalil Posted April 1, 2016 Report Share Posted April 1, 2016 I miss those days when she looked like this. 1 Quote Link to comment
edekalil Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 Picked up my shortened stock 510 struts from the welder to lower the front of the goon. And got a new locking gas cap to replace my old wore out one that did not cover the area that is resest around the cap. The original cap would fill this area like the new locking on does. Now the most shiniest part of my goon. Quote Link to comment

edekalil Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 Where'd you find that cap? I need to replace mine and I haven't found one that looks half as good as that one.Saw a link to an ebay auction put in a bid and no one else bid. I'll try to find the fellas info in case he has more, it looked like the box had a little age to it but the cap was like new. I'll also get a pic of the box it came in if it can help. It fits way better being the larger diameter than my old one. Here is a pic of the box it came in with a number on it hope it helps. The sellers name is beechracer. Quote Link to comment
edekalil Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 Got the welder to trim back the bead and found my blocks to lower the rear, and with the shortend strut I can lower the front. Quote Link to comment

edekalil Posted April 25, 2016 Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 Found all my parts for the goon, things to finish the motor area working and ordered what I needed to get the breaks and clutch working. Now just have to find the time to do the work. 1 Quote Link to comment

fisch Posted June 2, 2016 Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 Fine looking goon here! Is there a build thread? What are the specs? 1 Quote Link to comment
spec-bre Posted June 2, 2016 Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 Fine looking goon here! Is there a build thread? What are the specs? Small one on FB. The wheels on the car in this pic are not the wheels I run on it. They are for my flared 2 door. The width and offset doesn't work on the wagon for driving without serious rubbing. I have a page on FB with most the build info. It's a driver NOT a show car. She rolls on 13x7 Libra's. L18, 44mm Mikuni's, matchbox, Zx struts, GC camber plates and coil over kit, dogleg,1" sway up front, 7/8" rear, QA1 18 way rears, Tokico Blues upfront, z alum drums, alum flywheel with Centerforce clutch, and on and on... ;-) Quote Link to comment
spec-bre Posted June 2, 2016 Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 ABS is for Suckas What are you running for tires? Are you still running a Nissan open rear h190 diff? What class? Quote Link to comment
Son_of_a_Datsun_Guy Posted June 2, 2016 Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 What are you running for tires? Are you still running a Nissan open rear h190 diff? What class? Yokohama S Drives (need to go get some sticky tires and autocross wheels). Yeah still an open H190, and at the PCA events I'm running in the Open B class (anything not a Porsche and with 200+ treadwear on their tires). I'm not sure what I'd be running in an SCCA Solo event, probably some form of street prepared. (If I recall one time I looked and I was class 15? or something) Quote Link to comment
spec-bre Posted June 2, 2016 Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 They put me and My wagon in FSP. 400 tread ware Federals in a 185/60 13 makes for a slikary trip around the cones!! ;-) 1 Quote Link to comment
