Lol. Still trying to make this Dodge diesel sized turbo work on a VDub. I’ve ordered 3 sets of flanges trying to get back to my oil pan. Finally broke down and bought some 5/16x2” flat bar and started making my own today. Need to get a 3/4” NPT female pinched into a 28mm gap between mounting bolts. Gonna see my local welding shop Monday and get that finalized as well as fit a V band onto an elbow. Gonna be some fuggery to get back to the 3” exhaust. 3/4” female to fit these. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...99dc8d08ca.jpg This is a 2.5” stainless steel donut. Not mandrel bent but two halves stamped together and the seams welded. So it’s actually round and a tighter radius than could ever be bent. 2.5” pipe, ID in middle is 2.5”, so it’s 7.5” from one side to the other. I’ve never seen this before and thought it’s the bee’s knees or something. Got a hole drilled for the EGT bung to to get welded in. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...2f13f9d0e9.jpg |

Re: Pics of your latest purchase Well, this just happened... Wasn’t really interested in this scale until I saw one of SBG’s latest videos where he talked about putting a static model body on it. Picked up a Ford static model kit of the same scale to see what I can do with it. Might have to print my own bed though, I prefer the ‘78 step-side bed vs the ‘80 bed. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...418ed943_c.jpgUntitled by Scott O, on Flickr Do we have a section of the forum for tiny builds? |

Re: Pics of your latest purchase https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...976e8af08d.jpg Technically, these were designed for connected ESCs & batteries. However, in addition to using them for ESCs and batteries, I don't see anything wrong with using them for connecting motors to ESCs (especially in boats). The connectors, themselves, are 6mm bullets...but, the "wonder" in these is that no solder is required for connecting them to ESC wires, or battery wires. If I were to take a guess, I'd assume they were derived from speaker wire banana plugs...or, to be more specific, the connecting portion between the wires & banana plugs. However, unlike attaching a speaker wire to a banana plug, which uses a single screw to hold the wire against/into the metal of the banana plugs, this setup uses two screws - one on each side. The 'S7' is for 8-10AWG, but they also offer a slightly larger (8mm bullets) 'S8' for use with 6AWG wires. ~ More peace, love, laughter, & kindness would make the world a MUCH better place |

Re: Pics of your latest purchase Technically, I can call it my "latest purchase", as it was paid for back in April. Additionally, it wasn't shipped directly to me...it was shipped to someone up in Oregon, who then fully customized it to my specifications. However, as he just shipped it to me a few days ago, and I received it today, I'll consider it as a "latest purchase". It's a hull & canopy for a ProBoat SonicWake...but, this certainly ain't your typical SonicWake hull, and the photos will tell.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...5915c8123e.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...69e2bd5c1d.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...41e7c84e5f.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...c7524b102b.jpg ~ More peace, love, laughter, & kindness would make the world a MUCH better place |

Re: Pics of your latest purchase 1 Attachment(s) A little rumble for the trunk. It’s only a 10” but it’s plenty loud for me, really happy with it, especially for its small size. Sounds better than the ported 12” I had in my old car, which wouldn’t fit well in this trunk. Since this box is sealed it has a much tighter response even though it’s a square driver. |
Re: Pics of your latest purchase That's nice ^^^. I like the compact profile. In my 2dr JK I've got a round single 10" Kicker ( sealed box) and it's perfect. My days of bumping JL double 12's has long since passed. Even at hwy speeds and no top/ no doors my 10" Kicker is plenty. |
Re: Pics of your latest purchase I have a pair of the L5 10” in my Jetta in a sealed box I built. I’ve had them probably close to 12 years maybe. Don’t really remember actually but they hadn’t been on the market long when I got them. Solid setup and well worth the money. |

Re: Pics of your latest purchase 1 Attachment(s) Every once in a while I treat myself to a sixer of something along these lines... Hundreds of companies make the stuff, but hardly any Americans are aware of it. I got hooked on the flavor as a kid in Germany, where it is extremely popular. It's a really unique taste, you'll either love it or hate it - I'll drop the Wikipedia link that explains it and just how popular it is just about everywhere (except here)... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malta_(soft_drink) It's good for ya, too - high in B vitamins! |

Re: Pics of your latest purchase Went grocery shopping today, I hate grocery shopping. But at least something good came of it today. I managed to find a matchbox jeep gladiator so I had to have it lol. It will go along just great with the hotwheels jeep gladiator. Now only if I can actually get a real one some day. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...feaf0400fe.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...6b70206cce.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...e29821c07b.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...9f64f75742.jpg Sent from my SM-J727T using Tapatalk |

Re: Pics of your latest purchase 3.5mm TA Hexes for the front of the No Prep rigs. RPM Tranny case if I need it for the next NP Build if the PL PS 32P tranny wont workout. Lundsford Ti Axles for the TARP NP build along with a set of Custom RC adjustable rear arms for it. https://i.ibb.co/m65FRRc/IMG-2020101...-COVER-TOP.jpg Corrupted Carbon 12 hold beadlock rings for both sets of Proline F11 rims https://i.ibb.co/6y2JPVh/IMG-20201021-161159005.jpg Atomik F & R Carriers in Red for the Chuckworks RedShift NP build https://i.ibb.co/XyX00Qv/IMG-2020102...-COVER-TOP.jpg And finally, not a purchase, but it is a life-lease. lol Adopted my Cousin's Cat. She had to get rid of her so I took her. She has some Main Coon in her, and is a Torti color. Sweet girl and quite talkative. Only 1.5 yrs old so she should be with us a good while. https://i.ibb.co/tLzYtRX/IMG-20201022-003056343.jpg |
Re: Pics of your latest purchase Ordered all new exhaust studs, exhaust nuts, 4x m10 bolts, 4 m10 NordLoc nuts, exhaust manifold gasket, 4x schedule 10 304 stainless 1.5” elbows, and a 304 stainless t3 flange. Old cast manifold is a PITA to deal with and I believe it is the cause of two studs pulling themselves out of the head. Made the decision to build a tubular log mani while helicoiling those two bolt holes. Found another bolt hole next over that possibly needs one, too. I took today’s wait time to install a 3bar MAP sensor and 4.5bar fuel pressure regulator. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...15383473da.jpg |

Re: Pics of your latest purchase Been (purposely) putting it off for several weeks (I had planned on pre-ordering)...but, could hold off no longer. Without without further adieu, I present the Oculus Quest 2.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...83797b80b7.jpgI ordered accessories (Vive Deluxe Audio Strap, Power VR battery, etc) several days ago, figuring I'd have them long before I bought the Q2...guess I realized I could wait no longer. Now, to prep the original Quest for sale. ~ More peace, love, laughter, & kindness would make the world a MUCH better place |
