    3D printing components [SX specific] PLA / Green-Tec Pro

    Hello, I have constructed a couple of 3D printing parts for my 200SX S13 and thought, maybe someone is interested in something like that.

    Features Gauge Holder 3x52mm LHD/RHD:

    - Space for 3x 52mm gauges
    - Holding plate is firmly clamped / screwed to the dashboard
    - Robust construction
    - Weighs just under 70g
    - Material (PLA in black) is easy to paint
    - Thanks to the conical design, the displays sit very securely in the housing
    - Gauges are inclined 20 ° to the driver for optimal reading
    - high accuracy of fit
    - came with installation guide (via .pdf)

    Asking price: 35€ + postage and paypal-fees

    Features cup holder V1 up to 67mm diameter LHD/RHD:

    - fits perfectly for 67mm cans (330ml / 500ml) and 58mm cans (e.g. Cola) due to variable nose
    - 250ml cans (53mm, like Redbull and Co) still hold their position reliably
    - cup holder is securely clamped in position and does not wobble
    - Robust construction
    - Weighs just under 75g
    - Material (PLA) is easy to paint
    - high accuracy of fit
    - came with installation guide (via .pdf)

    Features Audi R8 ignition coil adapter:

    - Gives the Audi R8 ignition coils a secure and firm hold
    - Robust construction
    - Weighs only 30g per ignition coil
    - Material (Green-Tec Pro) is very temperature stable (up to 160 ° C)
    - high accuracy of fit
    - Material does not transmit temperature to the ignition coils as strongly as e.g. Aluminum or steel
    - fit CA18/RB25/RB26
    - came with installation guide (via .pdf)

    I have a MonoPrice Voxel - It is great too and cheap. Although, small build plate (150mm ^3)

    I think it is the typical position for the R8 Coil swap. The same direction as the OEM ones ...

    At the moment not, but I can have a look for a solution.

    Nice quality and smart easy to use installation. In my opinion it needs no painting as the surface finish is so good.

    Warning:

    Car dashboards can hit over 69 C after being parked in the sun on a hot day for only an hour ( https://www.livescience.com/62651-how-hot-cars-get.html https://www.sciencedaily.com/release...0524081730.htm ). The glass transition temperature of PLA is between 60-65C - this is the point the plastic starts to go soft and can bend and deform.

    PLA is a bad material choice for this application.

    You are right. I have been using GreenTec Pro for a very long time now:

    If anyone gets problem with a product of mine with PLA, please contact me! There is a free replacement from Greentec Pro.

    I made my own rings for the R8 coils ages ago on the printer at work using PLA. Been on there for months including track days with no sign of deterioration . Not sure what the temp is there to be honest, but it’s far from cold.
