  1. My wife does facebook, I do not, but she has posted a few things on market place and they sell very fast. I find the market place clumsy and hard to search...
  2. I suspect it is the pump leaking not the jet
  3. Yes, there are cups on boths sides. Four in all. I dont know the id on the bracket hole. I am sure its somewhat oversized
  4. Link is broken or page removed...
  5. Unfortunately I don't see a way to make it this year. Cody will be out of the country and I am getting pummeled with unexpected bills. Just don't have the money right now, even for a quick trip. Have fun and be safe!
  6. Post a link

    Yup, brighter is better!
  8. I have one but everyone that I have quoted it to, has balked at the shipping. They are not cheap to package and ship because of the size

    Of course you would do better than them! One of the really exceptional people at this has apparently retired several years ago. I know of only 2 companies still offering these services. Don't know on cost yet.
  11. I am not sure that 12mm square is small enough to keep them out. If they can get they're head through then they can get in.

    I know many older more rare cars have very limited availability for parts. When they have a bad master cylinder, caliper or wheel cylinder there is no replacement available. So there are specialty restorers who can sleeve these with SS sleeves. Then new rubber seals and you're good to good for a very long time. I have a number of master cylinders that could be refurb'ed. Does anyone know of a source for small diameter SS sleeves?
  15. That starts to make restoring and sleeving the old units I have laying around make sense
  16. These should be the same on all S30 chassis's A donor is the best bet
  17. The knuckles have a milled area that fits up into the bottom of the strut They can be really difficult to separate. There is also a small O-ring that goes in there to keep water out of that joint. If you are just replacing the strut insert, it can be done without removing the strut from the car. If you really want to separate them, then it will have to be driven down with some force, which is going to stress the ball joints or you could try to drive a painters 5-way in between the parts.
  18. You are missing some metal there. There are some metal cups that are welded to each side of that mount that the bushings fit into

    Good you figured it out.
  20. Can you post up a couple of pictures of what you have and the bolts you have removed
  21. Bayarea Don't get the idea to weld the roof joint up solid. The car needs to flex some and the designers selected this area to flex. If you make it too ridgid you could crack the A pillars or some other area on the car!

    I suspect the perches need to be indexed too. Just because it's "Obvious"...
  23. Make sure the chassis ground above the tank is clean and protected
  24. You do have to be careful. I would bang or strike the glass. Firm even pressure and pull the cord. If you use too much pressure the cord can damage the seal. The dangerous areas are getting around the corners. Try to not stress or twist the windshield
