This is "MY BUILD" INSPIRATION

[203CT]

Might not've been an OEM clutch in there before. When I replaced the clutch in my ED with an OEM Exedy, the clutch pedal went feather-light. Got a stage 2 Clutchmasters in the GSR EH, now that thing works the thigh out at a red light lol. And there should be an adjuster on the front of the trans, sort of a dial on a threaded rod that you can tighten up or loosen to change where the pickup starts in the pedal.

Lookin good btw

Thanks man I'll look into that. Next time I'll go with a stage 2 sprung clutch.

Lol if I had any I would but I work in a machine shop..I work with engineers who develope and engineer the products we sell. I deal with alot of model and prototype work. It's a great job I would hate to lose it.

Tomorrow is the big D-day. This sucks so much a lady with 32 years of service got walked out today. I mean how can u replace 32 years of experience. What ever happens is meant to be I guess. Keeping a positive mind.

 

[203CT]

Well don't really have any updates due to paying my dad for helping with the clutch and other bills. So far no layoffs that I know of so let's hope it stays that way for a while.

Thanks by monday I should know what going on at my job.

 

[203CT]

Well no updates due to this job situation but here's a pic I took today



And here some of this bad ass local hatch. I think a hatch is my next project.

No updates just trying everything I can to avoid losing my job. As of tomorrow I'll be working on another machine which is a new technology to me. It called SLA. It like a 3D printer basically but bigger. It builds models from the ground up using a intense laser to harden the material which is made of liquid plastic. This is all in effort to prove to the VP's and HR that I am a valuable asset to the company and to prove that I have skills that the company need in the future. So I'm hoping to add this with the fact that I can model and program in masterCam, run a CNC milling machine, program and run wire EDM machines. I also know how to use all the manual machines you would find in any machine shop. I'm really trying to show them I'm the jack of all trades as far as machine tool goes and rapid prototyping. All I can do is perform my best and see what happens. So far about 50 ppl have been laid off thought out the campus.

Here's a pic of a SLA platform that's was built a day ago. So far it's going slowly but I'm getting the idea around how parts are grown. The biggest learning curve is making the supports for the part. The supports are the latter looking parts that hold up the solid piece . You have to support the part in the right regions or the built will fall apart as its growing.

Picking up a bumper and lip later today for $30. Beats reprinting mines. not perfect but better than mines. It's the original paint as well so hopefully my car can look all one color.

 

[203CT]

Picked up the bumper. I also went a head and brought a new battery. I'll take pics of the bumper tomorrow.

 

[203CT]

New battery

 

[203CT]

Test fitting the bumper but I don't really like it. Looks ricey to me with the ribs cut out LMK what you guys think as of now I'm keeping it off. It only was 5 buck cost to me so if I don't use it IDC I'll give it away for free.

 

[zachkelly]

I don't think it looks too bad without the lower grille, maybe its the lip that you're getting the feeling from? More room for an FMIC

The lip looks like an overly aggressive ctr lol

I have it off now but idk we shall see

 

[203CT]

Well I'm in the market for a new shift knob any suggestions? I want something weighted and firm. Looking for a smoother swift shift. I've been looking at blox. I do not care for expensive rare knobs this early in my build. So the mugen knobs can wait looking to stay under 70 bucks. Also looking at spoons but idk. I want to order one tonight so please hurry and give input.
