FatBoy's Random chat thread and his D22

[KraftyPg]

Well you know where it is so that's just as bad. I was looking at my old workplace one Google the other day and I have no idea if the property is still owned by the same people but the old signs are still there so they are still advertising a now defunct business. The other place I worked at on Horsley Drive is long gone also.

Ahhh my cooler is on, have some respect..
Vibrating the hell out of the bonnet though...

 

[FatBoy89]

Bonnet stops are pretty worn out... Stopped the vibrating when I wound em all the way up but I'll get some taller ones anyways..

 

[KraftyPg]

What's all this engine talk in a random chat thread?

 

[FatBoy89]

Whatttt?????

 

[KraftyPg]

exactly!!!!

 

[FatBoy89]

Jeebus! Getting some horrible vibrations!!! Dangit

 

[FatBoy89]

The fan I fitted is hitting the airbox piping and is making the cooler hot the bonnet on take off... Now to decode weather I mod the airbox piping or I remove the fan... Is it honestly that useful for slow stuff??

 

[Dave]

Any pics Charlie ?

 

[FatBoy89]

On the page before this one by here you go again.

 

[Dave]

Nice work. How's she go ?

Out of interest, ever seen that Speedo problem in the thread below ?

 

[FatBoy89]

Drives great actually... Smoother rev range, more power midrange to top.
But getting a pod amount of vibrating...
It was hitting the bonnet quite bad so I adjusted the bonnet stops higher and it no longer vibrates. Well visually atleast. But still getting vibrating through the cab and such... Might just be touching..

 

[FatBoy89]

As to that gauge issue, not in my time at Nissan I haven't seen it. Best way, replace it...

 

[FatBoy89]

Know anyone that's got a standard set of leaf springs sitting around? I'm looking at going standard springs and extended shackles... I want more flex in the rear... My springs are too stiff

 

[Dave]

Looks like a good unit.

If they made them when I got mine, I would of looked at it.

I was only thinking about putting my factory leaf springs back in tonight. Haha.

The Lovells need a Canopy and Draws I think.

 

[FatBoy89]

Well if you decide against it... Let me know .
Drawers are a waste of weight and space

 

[Dave]

What happened to your Springs ?

Post a Wanted Ad.

The Factory shocks were the worst part by far.

 

[FatBoy89]

Nothing just a bit stiff. Thinking I may go standard springs with 2" shackles to get a tad more flex... I'm going to try design myself some new piping/hose from
Airbox to turbo so I can keep this cooler fan I think..
Won't be hard just have to order some hose bends that will be able to get that hose out of underneath the cooler,.

 

[Dave]

Na I mean the factory springs.
