[memole]

[diceman469]

Maybe I'm out of my element here, but what exactly DID you do? It looks like a hand brake?

Great work BTW

Why did you end up splicing it into the rear brake line? Wouldn’t be better off with custom brackets made up and install 2 extra rear calibers? Wont running it like that throw off your brakes and also possibly cause issues with the master cylinder in the event that you are having too use the foot brake in conjunction with the hand brake? I was thinking about doing a setup like this on my 240sx but was under the impression that adding another master cylinder and a extra set of calibers is the only way too go… I may be wrong and If I am I may have too give you guys a call ;)

[marksaccord95]

a second set of caliPers was going to add too much sprung weight to the rear arms and i didnt want to change spring rates to compensate for it. the hydro ebrake will rarely be used.

now the motor is out, how about a respray on that engine bay?

im glad to see the brakes are done! keep up the good work!

[marksaccord95]

just realized the passenger side dash was back in, the air vents get the chrome paint on it before it went in?

[presidential]

I've got a brake line bending tool if you need to borrow it.

[marksaccord95]

its all in there craig, thanks anyway

[marksaccord95]

its all good, cars being worked on

[SlowerThanYou]

hey man thanks for the reply, rep for you +1 and for having a nice project car..

[manifoldmike]

if you guys keep ragging on the time its taking, we'll shut this thread down.

only reason its back up is to give MARK an idea of whats going on.

if you don't have somthing nice to say, don't say anything at all.

[D-Roll]

Looking good bro

[.Seth.]

ppl talk to much shit, as long as the owners happy thats all that matters...

looks good tho! what r u going to be using it for? Drift?

[kpowerd 4g4d]

mark what brake master is that from im trying to hunt down a push rod for the brakes i got the chassis harness in thursday i just started the install on the harness hope to have it wired soon

[marksaccord95]

ya guys I appreciate them keeping me up to date on progress thru the pigs. Let's keep the thread clean

Car is being used for drift and road race

John- the parts for the brake master should already be in one of the boxes that was in the car. Shod be in a little baggie. Plunger, c clip, washer and I think a couple of other things.

[SpottedMango]

'thru the pigs'? I think all work will stop after they read this.

We are not able to find a baggie.

pigs = pics

doh

[S-hI_dave]

i like how all our comments were deleted. why dont you just tell us why its taking so long.

if i was to take my car to your shop i wouldnt like this prolonged wait.

[.Seth.]

^who cares, its not ur car so stfu...

[back2Nissan]

^^ Hey peanut gallery.... it really doesn't matter does it? The pics are there for you to enjoy. Your on DC's shop forum instigating and thats not cool!

[dan]

i like how all our comments were deleted. why dont you just tell us why its taking so long.

a. mark bought this car like 3 years ago (yeah i think it HAS been that long).

b. mark lives in california.

c. mark has a daily driver IN california.

d. mark is doing it right the first time.

that being said, it's not like mark has no car and lives down the street. i'm sure he wants his car to be finished, but i think he'd rather do it right, and i think if he's been working on it this long, he won't mind it being more of a side-ish project, because i'm sure the shop has other pressing cars to tend to during business hours.




it's looking good though! i want to see this beast run.

[h22forme]

...

[marksaccord95]

what dan said. i built the majority of the car myself over 3 years, i moved to cali, dont have time to work on it here.

ian gave me the bro hookup on labor, compared to full paying customers, those have to come 1st, but now its being worked on.

[Mars_302]

it''ll be sold before it makes it too cali

[Griffin400]

i like how all our comments were deleted. why dont you just tell us why its taking so long.

if i was to take my car to your shop i wouldnt like this prolonged wait.

You really need to just chill homie and enjoy the short life you have.

On a even happier note...LOVE you Mark!!

[SpottedMango]

It's taking this long because Mark is paying next to NOTHING for the job and as a shop we have bills to pay. Customers that are paying our regular rates gets priority. I don't know who you are and if you came to Driven Concepts and are paying our regular rate, you will be put into our queue.

Now, with that being said, please stay out of our discussion unless you have something productive to add. Anything else will be deleted.

[Saturntuner05]

Elmo is better. Btw Mark I think John is gonna be a 510 expert after all this. :lol:

[manifoldmike]

Elmo is better. Btw Mark I think John is gonna be a 510 expert after all this. :lol:

indeed!

[marksaccord95]

let john see this guys

VERY good, simple diagram
Technical Department - Wiring Diagrams (http://dimequarterly.tierranet.com/tech/wiring_diagrams.shtml)

ignition switch

pin 1 = WHT/RED
connects to a W wire and goes to the 20A fuse top left of fuse box

pin 2 = BLK/WHT
goes to 20A fuse bottom left fuse box

pin 3 = BLK/YEL
to starter

pin 4 = BLU/BLK
to 10A fuse 2nd from bottom left fuse box

pin 5 = BLK/BLU
goes to B/G wire @ +coil

[kpowerd 4g4d]

yeah i got them thanks

[marksaccord95]

some more info guys

for coolant overflow - dont u guys have these in stock? if you dont or cant get one let me know and ill order one.

http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e362/bmxpert77/photo6-1.jpg

heat pannel minus the gold foil? - i also dont think the heat rap on the downpipe is put on right

also see that lip that goes around the top of the shock tower? that needs to be notched so the movement of the coilovers can be made prior to painting the engine bay.
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y14/bmxpert57/IMG_0001.jpg

I found out that I can still use my stock speedo which i want to do. dont worry about wiring the avcr to the speedo. here is what is needed

BK 6151682 $15.99 napa speedo cable datsun 510
1979 - 1982 datsun 280zx mechanical speed sensor - this sensor will go right into the SR20 tranny with no mods.

defi tach fits in there without the need for a mounting plate
http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o237/mesojdm/DSC08901.jpg

[manifoldmike]

sounds good, i'll let john know.

[marksaccord95]

thanks mike!

if the AEM wideband hasnt been installed, dont worry about it, id rather just keep the speedo where it is and have it working

[unkentosh]

people are dumb,, shit i almost forgot whats up with the LS swap you told me about, i prob need that soon. THe guy just called me today about it actually , especially for that price you gave me. Also check on the GSR swap as well becuase we are getting some inquiries on them.

Thanks

[Big Chris]

Car looks good.

[manifoldmike]

more pics or wiring and what-not. jon's doing a bang up job. chris worked his magic with the water temp gauge but i didn't get pictures of it yet. looks pretty baller.

jon also added some more tabs to your intercooler to keep it from flapping in the wind.

brakes work great too!

i'm sure there is more, but he can tell you the rest.

yippie! tell John to check his PMs, need resistor on defi tach to work right. the water temp guage goes in the middle between the tach and speedo.

can you guys check thru all my shit to make sure my trunk lock is there somewhere? i hope that shit didnt get lost

whens the engine bay/inside of doors getting re sprayed?
air vents for dash painted?
can u do something about that ugly ass headlight/whiper switch chrome thingy above the drivers side air vent? paint with that chrome paint, eliminate, something? Thanks!

[jlude90]

[marksaccord95]

which rear trailing arm has the bad lower shock mount thread? driver or passenger?

[Durdan]

It's taking this long because Mark is paying next to NOTHING for the job and as a shop we have bills to pay. Customers that are paying our regular rates gets priority.

good question. he was supposed to drop a couple ecu's off last week. he mentioned he would be on vaccation or somthing this week. i'll let you know on monday.

[Epstein]

I dropped the ECU off on Monday. You should be ready to go! Sorry it took so long. I've been out of town for nearly 3 weeks. Business trip to China does not equal vacation.

[SpottedMango]

Ya right, looking for that Chinese mail order bride!
