Re: 180SX TypeX SpecR project soon to be daily

Big fan of the LMGT3's as I have a set sitting on my R32 GTS-T that came off an S15. Which lug nuts you running?  I ended up getting the Nismo ones as 19mm lug nuts dont work (EG Rays). What width are yours? Sadly mine are 17x7 and 17x8.

A little tip from my father in law who has a sand blasting shed yes a garden shed that he converted. Is to put some contact over the glass to stop it from from being blasted. :) leaving clear glass when ever he need to change it. :)

I don't know what the cabinet is like that you're using, but I'm used to industrial type blasters.
Poor visibility is due to poor extraction. What is the set up like?
You say the filter gets blocked........ Clean it!
What sort of blasting are you doi...

I use the super cheap sand and it works fine. But i run lower pressure on the gun and take my time blasting as it is quite a fine particle.

Re: 280zx caliper bolt size?

Tue, 18/06/2013 - 20:46
The bolts that hold the disc to the hub are not your standard everyday bolt; they have a larger diameter "shoulder" for a higher shear load. Best to get the right ones than something cheap and weak like a grade 4.6 bolt.
