Weld then balanced?

Wouldn't just welding it throw your balance out and do more harm then good if unbalanced?

Probably would..

I didn't just take to it with a MIG in my backyard, a very competent machinist welded it up and machined it back to suit the gears.

I would like to see someone weld up a drive in their back yard with the engine in the car

And then take to it with an angle grinder to precision machine the drive flats :laugh:

So ran into a couple if problems, the place I bought the cams off have sent the wrong ones they sent Neo cams and don't think I'll get replacements by next week so will have to go with STD f@#king cams. Plus couldn't source a .82 rear housing so looks like there's ganna have to be cutting and welding of exhaust mani

Well some good news, I managed to source a .82 rear housing so that should arrive within the next couple of days. But as for the cams, still no lucky.

Thanks Mate :)

There's delays getting it going there talking next Wednesday it should be ready for pick up. I'll have to look into some coil overs once I get it back :)

    • Am I correct in assuming that the R35's are getting the classic skyline haircut off the odometer?  Quick search on carsales, there are 33 08 and 09 GTR's for sale, only 2 of them have more then 100,000km's on them (116,075 and 110,000 respectively).  And somehow there are about 25 for sale with around 60,000kms? Looks like the classic skyline haircut to me =/
    • @Stringycheese  Have you only gone to the one blue slip workshop?  There will be a heap of them where ever you live, good odds that the next place you go to will pass the car.  Unfortunately (or fortunately?) every blue slip / engineering workshop will be different and will be happy passing or failing different things - despite working from the same set of rules. It's kinda like 2 lawyers arguing over a piece of legislation, each saying their interpretation is correct. Might seem strange that this happens when it comes to getting a modified car passed, but this is very much a thing. A big part of the game is finding an engineer / workshop that is on the same page as you.
    • Bah. I daily mine. ~60km per work day, 10-12 thousand km per year. What's the point of having a dirty old Datto and leaving it in the shed. It needs to be driven and enjoyed while the govco allows us to do so. It will only be a few years before we're forbidden to even start up internal combustion engines.
    • Judging by that spring perch and the normal looking spring on it - not a coilover. Well.... it is a coilover, just a stock format coilover, rather than what everyone calls a coilover.
    • Yes it is. We get stock from Nismo directly. I'm happy to take photos/video of it as proof before I ship it with timestamps or whathaveyou.
