Looking good. I don't quite understand the first picture...please explain

Tighten until its firm with loctite 407 (I think) then do 1 and 1/4 turns...thats all it needs. Its a tapered thread! If it is leaking you can go a further 1/4 turn without taking it apart...if its leaking you will need to take it apart, re apply and then tighten again to 1 3/4 turns past finger tight

I could but its not recommended,Its not that bad I guess,The Last thing I need to do is strip the thread.

Haha yea every time I look at it I just smile and laugh at how ridiculous this is.

Thanks .

Wait whats this-- 95 Vento Coupe-With hatch conversion wtf lol when this happen

[Ben J]

Can you cut the thread down or something? Not that its that noticable.

This set up is going to be all kinds of cool! One of a kind for sure. Absolutely loving it. Keep it up!

[vdubin]

Goodwork!

When are you planning on putting it all in and officially having it on bags? Delay after delay keeps happening with mine

Story of my life mate. With work, The Business,Gf,car Issues its been very hard to find time,Im not rushing Anything as I dont want to have to fix it up later.

Its a bit of a joke how long its taking me I know, I get really pissed some days but Im getting there.
To do:
-Install Bags ( Done )
-Run Air lines
-Carpet floor
-Set False floor secure to bottom frame
-Plum it all up & test
-Then The usual touch ups.

Heres my little Tank with pressure Gauge and Air fitting to use for Air powerd tools.



I HATE HOW YOU CAN SEE THAT MUCH THREAD STILL BUT IT CANT BE HELPED.

that looks really neat mate, well done!

Cheers mate, Its amazing what you can achieve when you take your time & be patient lol

Loving it. Is a shame you couldn't get hardlines to play nice... I think they'd look awesome.

I know ! Its to hard to explain why It wouldnt work On here.Maybe the next car I bag ill go all out with hard lines

Very well done!

Getting there

Looks amazing man!

Photoshoot sooon !!

Not Notching it..we Had a good look at whats involved, Its not hard at all.
But Not happy with the fact you cant Weld the inside aka motor side with out taking the motor out !!
Most ppl if not all will just weld the outer side and be done with it.

so to get a couple more mm lower its not worth it or safe.
