3D printing is an amazing thing. At my old job we use to do Stereolithography (SLA [ a photo-curing process, where a laser creates an object from a liquid resin] ) prototyping. We also had another machine that made parts in color from powder. The SLA machine only made parts in a clear appearance. Go for it man, if you can print your models do because its a good feeling holding the part in your hand at the end.

They have a bunch of makerbots set up as a 'vending machine' or sorts. You put in your SD card with your file, say print, and come back in a few hours to pick it up. I just have to figure out the issue with my computer's SD card reader and then its a go.

I watched a special on that stuff on tv lol, really interesting stuff

It is really cool technology. It opens up so many possibilities for manufacturing.

^^So if I take a picture of an nsx...

I'd need either a .STL file or I would have to make the 3D model. I don't have time for the latter, but if you find a 3D part file I'd be glad to print it for you.

Don't think it works that way. It would need the full measurements and you are trying off of a 2D image.

This is correct.

I am stoked man. I honestly think about different plans and ideas everyday haha. I'm trying to not waste any time and just get started with the work that needs to be done right away. I want to have the most time to dive it around my home town before I drive it 300 miles back to school.

 

[K-N-2-EK]

Hell yes! Stay focused in school man, finish strong and then hurry home!

4 more weeks. I'm getting pretty stoked to come home and work on my car. The best part about having almost a year down time is you can really wait for deals. I've made a couple purchases lately on some insanely discounted, brand new items to help the progress.

Koni Yellows

AEM hybrid intake

I actually wasn't planning on buying either of these, but I needed shocks and a new intake and I got deals that I couldn't pass up on both.

Are you going to buy the GC sleeves?

Thanks man. I've got some Eibach Sportline springs that will be going on the Konis

Plus the Konis have three different damping settings which I am looking forward to.

The adjustable damping should be very useful!

I think your new parts are really awesome!! Good job man!
