    Secondary battery in parallel?

    Parallel Surely you mean wire them in Parallel? In series would double the voltage and that would definetely cause trouble.

    Datsun Micra indicators

    I have these Orange indicators from a Datsun Micra that are attached (but non-functioning) to a later car I am breaking. Since they replace the side-lights Im guessing that the Datsun must have had its sidelights elsewhere? Anyone know where the side lights were on a Datsun Micra? Built...

    Cutting braided hose

    The ends will always be sharp, The end fitting should cover them up. Make sure you clean the swarf out of the hose after cutting. Oil hose will be quite difficult to cut, most places that supply it can cut it for you.

    Cutting braided hose

    You will need to wrap the hose in tape and then either use a very fine hacksaw blade or a dremel type cut-off tool. Stainless braid is very sharp, so wear thick gloves. What type of hose is it? Brake?

    Replacing rubber gear lever mount

    I've repaired/rebuilt the mounts on my car using polyurenthane body adhesive/sealant. Something like tigerseal or sikaflex does the job and comes in useful for all sorts of things in general. For example sticking fingers to bumpers, sticking fingers to windows, sticking fingers to other fingers...

    wide ratio 5 spd gearbox question

    Sammo Although the gear ratios are the same, I think the final drive ratio is different between the 4 and 5 speed box. This will make the overall ratios different. If you see what I mean?

    Is the standard K10 exhaust a reverse flow or stright through muffler?

    Well, it allows the gases out and it hasent fallen off yet, but it doesnt seem to have made any difference to the power output. Anoys the neighbours though.

    Is the standard K10 exhaust a reverse flow or stright through muffler?

    I dont think that would work. The only way to be sure of course, would be to flow test the box and make modifications flow testing after each stage. But if I were going to guess id say the main restriction seems to be the small holes the the gas has to escape from out of the pipe on the...

    Is the standard K10 exhaust a reverse flow or stright through muffler?

    As far as I know there are no off the shelf exhausts available for the K10, but im probably the wrong person to ask. Dont under estimate the bean can. My mates Nissan Stanza Skyline (not as impresive as it sounds) got through two MOT's with an exhaust held together with a tin of Wadworth 6X...

    Is the standard K10 exhaust a reverse flow or stright through muffler?

    Pietro I don’t think the big drill idea will work im afraid. The large chamber in the box is full of fibreglass and drilling into it would just make a big mess and not make any difference to the flow. Best to just replace the lot. The other one or two silencers nearer the front are of the...

    Is the standard K10 exhaust a reverse flow or stright through muffler?

    Sort of: http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y190/crogthomas/silencer.jpg This is my standard backbox that fell off after a particularly enthusiastic drive to the pub (across a field). Flow enters from the left into the pipe which is capped. It escapes through the holes in the side into the...
