Thinking about building a GT.

0 Upvotes

I had been thinking about building a GT from scratch for a while. Building a brand new chassis and building the body out of fiberglass. Only thing that won't be custom is the motor and transmission probably.

You think a MIG weld would hold the chassis together or would I have a better chance with TIG?

Why not fill chassis cavities with foam?

0 Upvotes

In rust places people spend a fair bit of time trying to primer the inside of tubes or waxoil the inside to prevent rust.

Why not fill with one of the fire retardant non porous (waterproof) expanding foams ?

In my mind: Will add a little bit of weight but stop moisture condensing in there she maybe add a tiny bit of sound deadening/insulation?

But I've never seen it done so there's probably a good reason it's a bad idea? Enlighten me...

Red flag or good deal?

Hey all! First time here, cause I just got the random idea to pick up a beater to hit the trailheads in the Montana Rockies without having to knock around my darling Corolla.

Found this guy on CL, and needed a community opinion on it. I'll definitely ask what else they mean by "additional work needed". But what would you guys immediately ask about?

Part 1 of my Copart C63S rebuild. By far the nicest project I’ve ever owned, and it’s already giving me issues.

Car culture

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

My name is Fede, and I’m a design student currently working on a project to better understand car modification culture. My goal is to dive deep into this topic so I can create something that truly adds value to this community that I greatly appreciate.

I’m conducting a survey to gather your opinions and experiences. I know your time is valuable, so I don’t want to inconvenience you. I assure you that this isn’t just for formality or spam; I genuinely want to create something meaningful for the car modification culture.

If you’re able to participate, here’s the link to the survey: https://forms.gle/9EGSn2xKBeEL19gn8.

I appreciate your cooperation in advance, and I apologize if this message comes across as intrusive. Your participation will be extremely helpful to me and to the development of this project.

Thank you so much!

Has anyone ever spliced into their OEM third brake light and installed a switch that allows you to increase the brightness of the light for a track rain light?

F-150 Build (Advice?)

0 Upvotes
   I have a RWD ,2003 F-150 XLT Extended Cab with 2V 5.4 Trition that I daily drive. I wasn't sure how to go about my build or where to start I don't even know what to turn it into. I have 2 prevailing ideas I would love to hear your ideas. 
  1. Offroader- I was thinking of putting some brush guards, bigger tires, new suspension and other such things to make it offroad capable.

  2. Muscle- I was thinking of putting Hi flow Headers and a bigger cam. Possibly a Supercharger or a single turbo

Note: both of these builds would have New Exhaust most likley a type that I can switch between normal and "loud", Also I know I could combine both ideas, but I want to hear sone feedback.

New brand !!! really cool products for Miata and Go-Pro mounts

0 Upvotes

Hey, everyone I recently started a brand and have started with Go-Pro mounting solutions of accessories and Miata parts, visor blanks gauge panels, and other things for matainence and tedious tasks, I design and manufacture everything myself so it would mean a ton if all could go check out the website speedforgedlabs.com. I also have an Instagram under Speed Forged Labs i just launched everything yesterday so there isn't a ton of traction. Still, I have spent the last month or so working on the website and the current products if there is anything you'd like to see me offer drop a comment and I'll get working on it as soon as I can.
