Something Easy To Make On A 3 Axis Cnc Mill Have Some Free Time But Carnt Think Of Anything

Depending how simple you want to go you could do something as easy as a slip on spacer that locates to the hub.
Slightly more technical than that would be a bolt on spacer.

Realistically they should have tolerances but shouldn't be too much of an issue if it's just teaching you to use the machine. Still requires some measuring and tool paths.

I've been making Man Sized LEGO out of MDF on my CNC at work. LOL

Oh and a double side Prop/Fan Blade... Would love to play with metal. \m/

How about something simple but expensive from nissan.

Like the heater core pipes. those plastic ones that bolt onto the core and cost $120 each.

One has a simple valve for heater control. You could get a ball valve or something for that bit.

Make something useful, and make some $$$

    • Probably speedometer itself if the odometer is ticking. If the needle is stuck from a bit of grease or something that can cause it to stay at 0. Or a cracked solder joint in the speedometer can do it too.
    • Thanks Fella’s   to take this off topic and to elaborate a bit more. I have an rb25/30 going into a r32 GTST.. expected to make around 600-700hp. Would you?   A) R34 GTT box   B) CD00#?  I’ve seen a few posts about the CD swap and sounds fairly involved with making it fit etc but if it’s worth the work then I’ll go that way
    • Lower at the hubs. Funny I forgot to mention that part. Do this pull here I turned the camera off too soon but the graph shows a drop at the top and that was because the pipe from the turbo blew off. The tuner said we could’ve made possibly another 15 whp. He also added if I switched to ethanol we could up the boost some more as well. I was comfortable capping it at the most of 20 pounds. Turns out the turbo pipe just needed a new worm clamp. Got home replaced that then did a third gear pull from 3k to 7200 rpm and the power was great to the top. I just got an ecu mounting bracket from IEE that I need to try and get everything to fit well. It’s a PITA to get the harness and ecu fit properly behind that kick plate 
    • He means "as opposed to mechanical cable drive". Older cars (R32 for ex.) had cable drive. Later cars with essentially the same gearbox, ie R34 GT (NA RB25) used essentially the same box as the R32 GTSt, but instead of a cable drive, had an electronic speed sender plugged into the same hole in the box, running from the same little gear that would have run the cable. Some of the shittier later cars use a speed sender on the nose of the diff, or the ABS sensors.
    • Lower than engine, or lower than it should at the hubs? Either way, that is a nice power figure and I'm not surprised you say it rips now. What stopped you from turning it up any more? Injectors? Or did it just stop responding to boost?
