    Proportioning valve

    I had a sand car that had one. It was running front and rear disc brakes off of one master cylinder, so the proportioning valve was used (near the master ) on the line to the front brakes. A better set up would be to have two master cylinders for redundancy. If you lose a brake line or caliper...

    Alternator amperage

    I talked to the guy at the Sand Sports Super Show that has the alternator shop: AutoTech Engineering. He was very knowledgeable and and seemed like he could build an alternator to fit pretty much any engine and any amperage level you want. He was very helpful. I would think he would be a good...

    SSSS 2024 thread

    I had just walked away from the demo when we heard the crowd, so I only got back in time to see him up on the k-rail. There must be videos. Seems like a lot of people had their cameras out. He got out and up on top of the car and laughed it off. Stuff happens when you're putting on a show for...

    Made a footrest today for a buggy I'm putting together. I should be working on getting it running, but this was more fun.

    The official Honda Thread

    Here's a picture of those locations since I have easy access to this right now.  I highlighted the two hoses in red.  When I flipped the intake I needed longer vacuum hoses to reconnect these.  Sounds like they could be capped also, but I hooked mine back up. FYI if you hook yours back up use...

    The official Honda Thread

    So I ass-u-me there are actually 4 places the coolant by-pass needs to be capped when doing the intake flip.  Please correct me if I'm wrong on these locations.  I should be capping locations 1 & 2 in both of these pictures, right? On another note the second picture also shows what I came...

    The official Honda Thread

    I made some progress on flipping the intake and throttle body to the rear of the buggy.  Some bolts were hard to reach and put up a good fight, but the runners are now rotated 180 degrees.  Would you guys mind checking my work here to make sure I'm this correctly? The first picture is where I...

    The official Honda Thread

    Hi guys, I am in the middle of a Honda J34A4 swap into my buggy this summer.  I am upgrading from an Ecotec 2.2. I got the engine from a running donor buggy with the harness, but I do need to flip the intake to make room for a gas tank.  It looks like I need to remove the fuel rails in order to...

    2" Hollow Hub/Bearing Assembly question

    I am converting my buggy from combo spindles to 2" hollow spindles with disc brakes.  The race on the inboard side of the hub gets hung up on a slight lip; the lip the pencil is pointing to in the picture.  I assume the race and bearing should be going all the way down to the bottom to fully...
