BTW i started cutting the front end off aswell Twisted Evil

Drilling out the spot welds

as you can see we discovered some accident damage on the N/S front so this is another reason why i have decided to tube the front end.

Can you tell us

1) what seam sealant is?
2) what it's for?
3) why you are removing it
4) why you're welding them up?

Ta. Cool

Hey man, looks wicked progress. I don't know if you have the time or patience, but if you can spare 10-15 mins, could you PM me with some details on how you got over the issues of running such power through your h22? Im looking to set mine up around 300hp with a supercharger, but I dont want it to blow up in my face. Also, I dont want to spend more than I have to, and CERTAINLY dont want to be paying an engine tuner 80 quid an hour along with huge money for a standalone or piggyback module over here (would much sooner buy a flash, or a piggyback from the states and learn to tune myself). The more advice you can give me the better mate and would be surpremely appreciated! Smile

At a guess the sealant is to stop rust forming in the seams.
I may be totally wrong here, but i think welding the seams increases the chassis rigidity. But you don't fully weld the seams more weld a bit leave a gap weld again, else there would be no give in the chassis at all.

It's only what i've picked up from Drift car builds, so I'm not sure that's right.
