8.75:1 c/r is more forgiving than the 10.5:1 i was running when the ringlands let go @ 20+psi
Picked up a thermostat and 6L of ready mix Nissan coolant. I now have everything needed to do the water pump and thermostat, thinking of booking Wednesday off... .
As an aside, Nissan no longer sell the L250 concentrate. It's now ready mixed and called L248...

you would soon pick it up joeStill keeping with the ghetto build type then
my apprenticeship was in engineering really (toolsetting), and this is my "trial and error" hobby ehyou would soon pick it up joe
Pretty neat hobby, im doing a full degree in engineering but its all just bloomin maths and very little useful practical work, i want to rebuild cars not do double integration haha. Anyway thats not really for this thread, i do admire the work though, if i have the time and cash i may start something similar after uni... Supermicra time
I have a voodoo doll hanging from mine
does it have a name
opinions pls..
16's is in proportion but sth about 17 is rather horney!
Not having these wheels, just idea for size.
anyone know if 7j et35 fronts and 8j et38 rears will be ok? i htink will be quite flush, not sure about poke.
16s
17s
Id say 16 tops really, 17 is too much wheel, youd have to run super low profile to get the right ride height and speedo reading. Also getting tyres low enough profile to fit well will be costly as theyll be a size not many people buy most likely. Also i just think the 16's look better
Took the passenger window out as my attempt at a fix with silicone failed miserably to keep the glass on the runner. Epoxy resin used today and seated glass in properly, wound up tight (tight as electric lol) and will see how it holds this weekend. Also used the wood method to lift the drivers door, now closes as it should Anyone know how long the door stays in place after jamming it back up with timber?
