Charger Posted September 1, 2008 Author Report Posted September 1, 2008 Thanks Been doing some wiring here and there. The shutdown at work is almost over so I promise I will get some real work done soon Dirty buzz bars just been drilled and tapped. Need a clean up. Cleaned up and negative wiring installed. Still needs a bit of work but have to get more time to spend on it. The wiring is blue Aerpro 0awg, thanks Dave! Let me know what you think and if you want to see more!

Charger Posted September 7, 2008 Author Report Posted September 7, 2008 No Real updates lately. I've gotten to the point where I really can't do much until my gear arrives so just trying to keep busy so I don't lose interest While I am waiting I bought something to keep me amused for a bit. Not the best in the world but it's still great fun. Also got an R32 body that came with the kit, dropped it on its guts now it's got like 1mm ground clearance. Need feeler gauges to test it I'll probably buy an upgraded motor, and some other driveline parts for my kit to get it hammering. Also a few sets of different rims and tyres for different road surfaces and driving needs Here's Dave's (IH8SQ) Odyssey which he bought and it convinced me to make a car up, it's a beast! Oh and onto the car audio side of things I guess. Did some trimming here and there, nothing exciting just carpet which is just clean and tidy and most importantly, easy to trim with as I am hopeless at trimming. Carpetted the rear door. Rockford Fosgate RCAs, these are great. Now I've got multi coloured 0awg power cables so it looks good now and they are hidden under the panels until they come out to where the amps will live Can just see the negative wire and bar if you look in behind Also got the alt fitted on custom brackets to suit its mounting points. The bad bit is the alternator is faulty, I'm not even going to wire it up to find out. The power output lug on the back is reading ground. Which means dead short somewhere inside the unit. Not a cold chance in hell I'll be hooking a positive charge lead (0awg) to my battery to this lug, I don't like fires. Hopefully get it sorted out this week and get an alt charging again Got a another dB Drag lingering around the corner but looks like I'll be sitting this one out until I get ontop of things. Thanks for looking.

JMC0415 Posted September 7, 2008 Report Posted September 7, 2008 Sucks about the Alt. Nice R/C cars. Keep it up.
Forevrbumpn Posted September 7, 2008 Report Posted September 7, 2008 Dude, its something so simple, and over looked, but the way you tied the cables together with zip ties, I never thought of that, but seen it, and I was Like OHHHHHhhh But anyways, nice build as always I have a ritual called "terminator". I crouch in the shower in the "naked terminator" pose. With eyes closed I crouch for a minute and visualize either Arnie or the guy from the 2nd movie. I then start to hum the T2 theme. Slowly I rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me get through my day. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It sorta ruins the fantasy.
Charger Posted September 7, 2008 Author Report Posted September 7, 2008 Thanks guys the way you tied the cables together with zip ties Yeah it's the little tricks that make running cables just that bit neater. I stole the idea off somebody else I thought and now that I've done it I'll definitely keep doing it Thanks Previous 150+ daily rides: Volvo 240 wagon 2 x DD Audio 9915s walled, Isuzu Trooper 6 x DD Audio 3515s walled clamshell, Lexus LX470 2 x Kicked Solo X 18s, Lexus LS400 4 x American Bass HD18 walled SMD - System of The Month August 2008 My Youtube Videos
The Performer Posted September 7, 2008 Report Posted September 7, 2008 Man that last vid scared the shit outta me, I thought your ass was on the wrong side of the road!! Lookin loud man, keep it up! CERTIFIED BITCHES!!! Not being new at something doesn't mean anything. Just because a prostitute isn't new at what she does, doesn't change the fact that she still 'sucks' Click to see my build!

Charger Posted September 12, 2008 Author Report Posted September 12, 2008 But I bought a new shell for my RC car Windows masked Painted from the inside Peel off the protective layer and it's all purty! Well not the best finish but not bad for my second paint job and I also got new motor and ESC for it. Goes a little better now especially top speed. It burns rubber It's based on a Holden Torana L34 for those of you not familiar with the car. Then I got the alt in properly and all wired up. It works yahoo!!! :D Thanks for looking. All comments appreciated.
