Ideally, powder coat just as all finishes I am thinking of right now are supposed to go on a somewhat scuffed up surface so it can "bite." I think they may be able to sandblast/beadblast them to achieve such a finish as well. I sanded my bike's rims and my engine cases by hand before powder...

A member of SF once stated what I think of all this: LMAO :bigthumb: This "make me an offer" business makes many walk away also. I usually avoid or don't end of buying the part if it is marketed that way. Many times the seller gets upset & frustrated because of the offers they get, but...

heh Thanks for the welcome, and thanks for your thread too. (The one that got moved to OT.) But I just want to say that I will only be on IF and WHEN I am very drunk -- but that is it! And I am drunk NOW! lol I only seen myself as an interim mod, temporarily until the site came up. SM is...

And that car has NO rust on it too I bet! A perfect chassis. Wow, what a steal indeed. I used to live in Orlando, Florida for about two months...then when I discovered Ft Lauderdale -- I left immediately afterwards. heh I also noticed that cars are cheaper there than here in NY State, and...

Under optimal conditions: Pure highway, car already warmed up, non-stop driving from fill to refill, maintaining 70MPH, ambient air temp above 50F I just about always would get 400+ miles on a full tank. I have driven non-stop from New York State to Florida a couple of times. I have also...

Yes on that. All depends on where you go really, it varies. I can only tell you how much motorcycle parts have cost me to powder coat :icon_razz Just don't powder coat things that get too hot, or it will burn off.

It is ONLY possible to go from the 1989-92 front to the 1986.5-88 if you buy MY front end. Only my front end will work on such a conversion. I have all the parts you need also. PM me.

The reason why I became a mod was for the wrongest reason from what I can see now. "whats it take to moderate" http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1748&highlight=community I thought you would get appreciation from the members. Generally, mods don't get that on forums. As...

Hello mdbarney, always nice to see new people. Tools needed are a compressor, and the ones that I show here in my thread which will tell you just about all you need to know on that issue. One of my best write-ups too:) enjoy http://supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2229

Since you mentioned that, here is a post on mic's and my thoughts on measuring: http://supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3177&highlight=mic%2A (see post two) Btw, I should put this in the Tech Section because it has good tech info. Thread moved.

promised: Saved that thread for myself before the hack;) Glad I got a good thread to post it on.

I thought that was the purpose of this forum: to learn. If not, why should we be here? I think with enough research suprana1990 could accomplish his goals. We don't really know if suprana1990 is building his first motor neither. I don't know him; do you guys? Information I give you may be...

Yeah, it can be a tricky thing to build one of these motors as Supraboostin just mentioned. I always thought that the ideal clearance for the crank was .0015" That is what machine shops aim for. I will find that info for you later in full;) Many people use the Toyota ones because they...

Yep, the only reason why I said that -- and maybe perceived as sounding negative by some -- is because I have used a garage to paint a car once and then it became unavailable short of completion. It sucks not having your own place and garage. I would confirm with the friend letting you use the...

This is a great time -- the best time -- to figure out if you will indeed be able to do all that work and complete it, or part it out and make $$$. Not trying to tell you what to do at all, but just saying that you should consider all relevant information and choose one coarse. I have seen...

Well, I know that the month interval ended yesterday; I decided to get one responded at the last minute. I wanted to tell you here instead of replying in a PM: Thanks for hooking me and all of us up. This is the first CARFAX report I have ever seen. I didn't really know what to expect...

Thread moved to OT, where they also asked "What is your race/nationality" before? heh Also, "What do you look like?" was another thread.

Reading comprehension for IJ: Now what does that mean to you? Don't flatter yourself. Nope, it is not at all because of something you bad repped me for. Since you mentioned it, SM has NO trolling on it anymore. Did you notice that? When is the last time you seen trolling in my section? What...

My homie said it best -- damn right! My feelings are primarily based on and have developed from what I seen on another forum: I don't need green squares to validate me; I am self assured enough as is. I know who I am. I know what I know and what I don't know. I also don't need to feel...
