The balance shafts
The balance shafts
After you remove the balance shafts what do yo do with them? Has anyone found a sensible use or does someone actually want them?

or weld a few together and put a letterbox on it
or keep it beside the seat in your car for one of "those traffic moments"
but its an engine part "officer" it belongs in the car

Re: The balance shafts
Well, if you add it to the 20/30 tonnes of scrap metal that used to be cars at my mates place, you'd probably get a reasonable 5c

Re: The balance shafts
I've thought about the floodlights mounted to the back of the car before. Travelling down the F3 freeway everynight you always seem to get retards that don't know how to turn their highbeams off.

Id take mistaking your sigalant for a datsun as a compliment there is NOTHING tougher than a datsun on full song!

You would say that... as it would only take us half throttle to over take the 1200, so your've probably never heard one at full noise ;)mistashitty wrote:Id take mistaking your sigalant for a datsun as a compliment there is NOTHING tougher than a datsun on full song!

Re: The balance shafts
I supose you sigalastronophiles would say somthing like that (just stick a big MOPAR sticker on the back) but I stand by what I said "there is nothing like a datsun on full song" I`v yet to hear or see a mistu. six on 3x45`s and cam. My datsun sounds pretty damn good (a lot better than my scorp/turbo) but it doesnt set off car alarms like the scorp.

Re: The balance shafts
any inline 6 with triple webers sound good, datsun 6's have a god awful sounding valve train
My little 208 holden with triple 48's had a wicked induction roar
As for nothing sounding better than a datto @ full noise, id say tune your ears to a 500+ci ford big block @ 7500rpm you'll find that the datto sounds like nothing

WELD THEM ALL YOU HAVE TOGETHER AND PUT A LETTERBOX (OR A LIGHT) ON TOP, PUT IT OUT FRONT AND LET THE POSTIE AND THE LOCALS HAVE A GOOD LAUGH.
