you would use a etch primer on the bare metal that is what etching is. then you can hit it with a high fill primer. When you prepare primer for top coat you should block it back with 180 grit dry sand paper to remove the peal, then 320 dry to remove the 180 scratches, then finish with 600 or 800 g wet and dry for the final coat. I usual use a very week paint mix to make a guide coat which i wipe on with a clean rag this will show all the sanding scratches and highs and lows

you may find that with in time the cracks will show through the new paint in time the best way is to sand the cracks and chips right out. Its dosnt take that much more effort if you don't like sanding then use stripper, but keep in mind this is messy especialywith acrylic paint as far as the acrylic vs 2 pack debate there was discussion on this topic earlier this week. acrylic is better for the in experienced painter but is a bit more work to get to finished result. 2 pack will last much longer than acrylic and has a shine right of the gun, where as acrylic usually need to be buffed

i was thinking the Itbs would be quieter because of the no chokes. Mainly because it is the restrictions that make the louder sucking noise. It is in my understanding that with blow off valves the louder a a blow of valve is the less affective. Because it is the restrictions that make the sneeze. I could be totally wrong though and please correct me if i am

i just looked up some of the prices on these manifolds. I didnt realize they are so expensive at close to $1500 maby i would be better off with the webber manifold and maby even some ITB's

yes its another plenum idea I was dreaming today at work about slicing the runners of a greedy plenum and relocating them so they line up to the l series head ports. it would be cool to have a greedy plenum on my l28et. Do you think the effort would be worth the hassle. Or do you think i would be better off building a plenum attached to a webber manifold? P.S dont forget this is for turbo application

ahhhh.. see i have the luxury of being able to straighten them my self That price sound fair

for that price i think i will just have the originals re chromed

when i had lessons i was taught to use the less amp setting possible to reduce heat i havnt had to turn my little bugger up full yet

if you are welding alloy you have to also change to a nylon wound sheath for the softer alloy wire

I agree that a 180amp is an ideal size for home use, but i wouldn't say completely necessary. I use a 135 amp cig at home and it welded up my rotisserie with excellent penetration. i use a 250 amp cig at work on a regular bassis and i would actually prefer to use my 135 amp for thiner sheet metal

i have used this method many times before it works welland saves a lot of time in measurements. Or i tack weld a patch over the rusted section and then cut the new section out with the old section which gives a perfect fit every time then you gust have to grind the tack welds of and bobs your uncle

that one lives in my home town

i have a cig 135 amp. It did a fantastic jop of building my rotisserie and for sheet metal it dose just as good if not better than the 250 amp i have at work

i thought they where photo shoped

i have seen an r33 with a single cam rb25 also ???

i so want to build a gtr replica from one of these

i posted this a few weeks ago If i was going to build a ferrari I would build it to scale so i could drive it

a chassis straightener would eat all of your 40 k and more Unless your talking about the old floor rack and dozer Tools would be a worth while investment though

im pretty sure mine has these, but has plugs in them

It would be good for some one wanting to do a reshell
