Doin' Work...
Got a chance to finally start working on some things.
Got the hood off, got the battery out...
The battery tray is a repeat offender when it comes to finding rust in any S30 chassis. A little rusty but still really solid.
Fixed an oil leak I've had for a while.
Turns out my speedometer cable wasn't connected quite tight enough.
Just screwed it back on all the way by hand and the leaking stopped, as shown by my beautiful clean piece of cardboard (Left over night).
Thinking about keeping my baller, single copper zip-tied fuel line, lol jk.
Next thing I'm going to do is empty out my gas tank, drop it, and replace everything I can.
My fuel level gauge has never worked. Gotta get a replacement fuel level sending unit, and while I'm at it, clean out/replace the tank and tank mounting hardware.
Finally filled my toolbox also. Feels really good to use it for the first time.
Clean beeotch.

OS Giken TC24-B1 Returns!!!
According to Speedhunter Dino Carbonare, OS Giken is producing another limited run of the legendary Twin-cam TC24-B1 head for the L-series platform.
I'm sure the cost would be exorbitant, and even prohibitive for most. But I will do everything in my power to attain one.
OS Giken is without a doubt a member of the old-school Japanese elite, especially when it comes to Nissan/Datsun. I can't wait for further developments on this.
Thanks Dino for posting this!!!

Rocky Auto - Carbon S30 (Again)
I really don't care if anyone is sick of seeing this car.
Because I am so totally not.
Gold NA RB26 stroked to 3.0 converted to Triple carburetors, an exhaust manifold forged by the Z gods themselves AND bronze Volk TE37Vs on Semi-slicks???
There is nothing else to say.
I'm just going to get this out of my system now.
And the one-off RB30 Exhaust manifold

BYO Workbench!!!
Hey guys,
I've been dying to get a workbench into my garage since my first day in the house and today that becomes a reality.
I downloaded some free BYO Workbench plans from HammerZone.com. Cheap and Sturdy Workbench for around $20?? Yes please.
Pulled out my trusty electric drill. (No more Z car as a workbench lol)
Grabbed a pile of 2x4s. Lowe's cuts these for you and rarely charges you. Also makes it so you can fit an 8 foot long piece of wood in your girlfriends VW Golf (Thanks hun).
Here goes nuthin'!
I've seen worse.
And kablam!! She's done. With a few minor shortcuts of course.
Of course I couldn't leave well enough alone.
So I picked up a quart of Rustoleum truck bed liner.
Gnarly stuff. As black as my soul.
2 coats down and lookin' good!
Nice textured surface!
One warning though. This is one product that I WOULD NOT use in an enclosed area.
My garage was wide open the whole time I was using it and I SWEAR I saw an otter run under Emily's car... Probably not smart to operate heavy machinery afterward either.

BOX!
They basically paid me to take it.
Sears in Chelmsford was having a Friends and Family Day sale while this box was on clearance. And on top of that I found an old promo card in the store that said the middle section was free with the purchase of the other two pieces.
$410 retail
$160 beotch
