im bypass the amp and wire the motor straight to the battery and find out tonight...

ill call you if it is

 

so you arent in cali?

 

<was wondering the same thing^

 

No, moved out there, couple months later find out my step dad is beating my mom and they are getting a divorce.

Family comes first, so I'm back to help out, and figured I'll stay here.

 

about 2/3 done with one wheel.
pretty much wish i had never started.

 

That looks so much better than gunmetal though.

I would put those on my car.

 

Just think of all the weight your saving!

Looks good. What are you using since aircraft stripper didnt work?

Finished up stitch welding for the most part.

 

whats that like 100,000,000 hours in?

 

dude, polished gtr's. sick.

will look dope on the car with twice tone n stuff. well worth the work.

 

fuck man, at least.
i work on it here and there when im not busy, but ive got a good 20 hours in just that. and its not done.

they wont be perfect, the forging is kinda shitty since nissan just painted them there was no reason for perfection, but theyll look good moving and from the distance of an average persons height away haha.

since aircraft stripper didnt work, i used my hands. used a not very coarse wire wheel on a die grinder until most was gone, then hand sanded.
started with 220, then 320, then 400, then 600 then 800, then a buffing wheel.

need to find something to get in the corners with, no idea what. might go by harbor freight for ideas maybe.
