New Rear Emblem
Been done on here a bunch of times but I took the liberty of making some small adjustments to it.
Been holding on to this until I got the Nismo Rear Bumper on the Roadster. http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g5...psifojmbfs.jpg http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g5...ps9r4eokah.jpg |
I've been off of work all week so I decided to start a new 3D printed project for the Z.
I decided to make a 3D printed shift knob, and after a few iterations I have one IO like. It's a fairly simple design printed out of ABS. I modeled a top and bottom piece and filled them with BBs and epoxy to add some mass, and then use a M10-1.25 flange nut pressed into the bottom half and used JB wled to hold it into place. I then used acetone to chemically weld the 2 pieces together and then smoothed it with an acetone vapor bath. http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m...17-07-08_1.png http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m...IMG_1057_1.jpg http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m...IMG_1069_1.jpg I may paint it, but I'm still not sure. I Kind of like the idea of knowing that it's 3d printed. I can't find my kitchen scale otherwise I'd weigh it. Link to files https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2425722 |
Officially christened it with its name

When you put on that shift knob don't forget the gallon of lock-tite that Nissan recommends

Picked up a scratched up rear bumper someone was giving away for free on craigslist... plan to attempt/learn:
stripping off the paint shaving the rear emblem repaint with aerosol cans - automotive touchup KAD and 2k clear |
Drove from St Pete/Clw to western NC (~600 miles), and only saw one 370z the whole way. Amazing!

Washed her up today. I lost 5 pounds of water. It's freaking hot and humid.

Just wondering how many of you guys here have a boosted Z that drive it daily, to work, shopping, family etc.

brought it to a car meet. Ran into two R34 GT-Rs and an R33. The owner of the blue R34 let me drive it. I can now die happy. (yes they were federally legal)
