all looks good so far :P will you be recovering the dash, after you've fiber glassed the extras, with anything (vinyl, fleece, paint) ?

Tell me what you think..

I took the dash from my Bayside Blue crashed parts car, and now making my own custom modified / fiberglass'd Dash board.

From the pictures I hope you can see where im going with it.

DAY 1

.....section removed.....

Dash cleaned and degreased

Yes either leather or Suede.

It will be alot work still

well the price would probably be alot more if I told them to hurry up, and focus this as their only project until its done. but bumps in the road happen, and things go on a standstill while new parts must be ordered to make the install as seemless and OEM as possible.

my new website will be online once the car is completed WWW.MWR34.COM

it will be the home of the complete build gallery, the photoshoot gallery, details of car, also this car will be for sale.

And future build plans for your custom-made MWR34 will be available. lets hope this turns out nice.

the car will be for sale? why do that? build it up then sell it :D awesome build up, takes someone real dedication and a clear view of what they want to do something like this :)

Thanks, this car has consumed most of my free time for the past two years.

I believe im the only r32 with a front and rear conversion in the world, and haha trying to show the world what i can do.

    • The downside of this is when you try to track the car, as soon as you hit ABS you get introduced to a unbled system. I want to avoid this. I do not want to bleed/flush/jack up the car twice just to bleed the f**kin car.
    • But again, the engineers said your cast aluminium would be fine based on the load that would be stretching that section. Same load stretching the bolts in a flex (not the twist), with a much smaller cross sectional area than the original part you've broken. It's why you'd need to be using higher strength bolts, but that's just making up for the strength you lose with less area...
    • I am truly amazed someone on this planet was able to cycle the pump using a scan tool. I've always ghetto cycled them on Nissan 90s shit boxes by slamming the brakes and pulling the handbrake to agitate the rear wheels enough to cause a speed difference
    • I didn't actually try it at the time but a Launch X431 with the appropriate software licenses/upsell will have the ABS bleed function. The Consult II you can still find some old sets of equipment but they're really, really expensive:   
    • Well I'll start by saying I'm not an engineer. I am going to go with the KiwiCNC ones.  They are made of 7050 alloy have good fillets and radius.  The material alone is in the order of double the strength and fatigue resistance - Those bolts, once torqued correctly place most of the load at the flat face of the mating surface - the 'stretch' you're talking about through torqueing them up would be far more than the extra stretch 'load' placed on them from a steering input or bump. (in my opinion) so I doubt they would flinch.    - but again "not an engineer".      oh and I don't think stitch welding 7050 is a good idea, likely just weaken the material (from what I read)
