Hey, I ended up just listing the digital files up and letting people do as they wish with them. I couldn't figure out a reasonable method to get them made for a fair price.
What program do you use to be able to split them into pieces? I want to 3D print larger objects but be able to split them like you did while adding that little notch you did for the inserts.
I do it all in fusion 360. I create an offset plane every 120mm or so and then use that to divide the part and then manual create the dowels and then do a subtractive cut of the other half....hopefully that all made sense.
Nice swap. Usually everyone goes with an RB or 2J, this is something you really don't see with these swaps. Cool swap, new sub and can't wait for future videos.
Why does the VQ35HR always get invited to car meets?... Because it's known for being the life of the RPM party, and it never misses a beat! Great Choice! Cant wait to see more.
I mean, no doubt the VQ is going to make way more power than the L28 and be more fun in general. The only real downside is the sound, and that can be largely fixed with exhaust tuning. I have a 1984 Nissan S12 I want to engine swap in the future. Debating between a VQ or a rotary. After swapping a 13B into a BRZ for a friend, I think I need one in my life.
Thanks! This will be pretty tricky to pull off but I am feeling fairly confident so far. The Vq is a pretty solid motor, surprised they are not more commonly swapped.
No idea lol, it "black screens" without fail. I have tried every driver, bios, underclocking, cable, psu, new silicone pads and thermal paste combo under the sun at this point and it doesn't have a warranty...🤷♂️ oh well, waiting for a deal I like on a 40 series or just waiting for a 50 at this point. My 1080 will hold me over until then.
Thank you! I am by no means a chemical engineer, I just happened to grab something with an appropriate heat range and sent it lol. Epoxy resin would have likely worked just as well for this part.
Hey I'm sure you already figured this out by now, but if you lay some painters tape on top of the wood, it will prevent (to some extent) the wood burning on the top.
I've used Taulman 910 alloy Nylon. The intake crosses directly above the exhaust manifold with nothing in between it and the 3" intake I printed. Zero issues.
Great try! I am in the process to make a manifold using carbon filled polycarbonate and then also skinning it with carbon fiber, it would be a little hard to do that on the inside tho.It has heat set inserts for holes
Thanks! I would like to try making a manifold too, definitely more involved! The inside you could always use a thin epoxy to smooth everything out and give it a little extra integrity.
Awesome work man! Looks exactly as an OEM part. Im looking for a good and affordable 3D scanner for the same purpose as you. Any recomendation? I appreciate your help in advance
Thank you, I have used the Einstar and had pretty good results but the better Revopoint scanners would achieve more than high enough resolution for something like this.
Thanks! Yeah the motors are pretty affordable, secondhand the transmissions aren't too bad. New they can be had for $2200, which is pretty fair for a brand new Nissan transmission. I actually just picked up a donor car today, so hopefully I can start making some progress.
@@EndMotive Just sucks they used to be like $1,600 brand new IIRC and you could find them used for $500-900 all day. Prices have just gone up a lot with the popularity.
@@802Garage For sure, I was looking at them only a couple years ago and you are totally right....Unfortunately, everything has got a little crazy in pricing. I can still find them used in the $800+ range...but harder to find.
