Not 100's of TO's lol. I haven't been in TO for a few years now and half of them were overturned because they were silly.
Whatcha mean blanks? Bronze stock?

Finally finished up the linkage pins I am working on. I had to wait for the yellow washers and clip from BMW before I could put the groove in my pin and part it off:

Wee!
Looks great!
Thanks Clay!
Hey Jon, forgive my ignorance, but why did you want to make your own shift linkage? Where you not happy with current offerings?

That is some wicked cool fabrication, Jon. Everything resolved with the house?

that linkage looks purdy. nice work jon.
LOL - thats a riot.
Not just yet Peter - we gave them 1/18 to formulate proper response and get the sewer installation in order. Hopefully they can make that - I want to move! LOL.
Thanks chris - still have to pull the existing one and weld it up, but getting there.
This was the old setup - I didn't get to hit it because it was very... well, I lacked confidence with the aluminum intake. I worried I'd pop the nozzles out under boost and spray my engine down with fuel.
I have a shot of my single fogger from my T3/Holset setup somewhere.
All done. Now I need to see if I can get Greg to cut them out lol.

Yeah but kind of lame because I couldn't use it
Drew up a 37* nitrous jet w/o orifice. I could fill an existing jet but I have brass and this will be a good exercise on the lathe. Plus, making stuff is cool.

wow, nice detail in the pictures. what camera did that? Im looking to get a new dslr in the 5-600$ range. I know thats not going to get a great slr, but Im not too much of a photo taker anyways.

Thanks man - I use a Canon 5DII but the detail in those pictures is because I use a macro lens for most things like that.

Photo quality is like 30% the body and 70% the glass!
Yeah, I knew the lens is the bigger factor there. That one you have in unbelievable. Do you use the slrs for video? I've got a canon hx40 (i know I know), but it produces an excellent HD video even though it doesn't have raw. I was surprised by it and it mainly stays attached to my cage.
Sorry for ot.

Finished up my DSSR!
It's NOTABLY easier to shift - the shifter falls into gear without as much resistance. Very worthwhile upgrade IMHO and also eliminated some side to side slop!

And this is how I kept it flat/square, making sure it fit the stock application and didn't warp

I was about to dis the machining on the brass nozzle until I realized how small it is and your crazy lens just makes it look huge.
Nice work on the DSSR too.
BRENDAN - Put a SOHC in it!
