The cad drawing was done for space constraints to develop the turbo kit. To use the arm to develop a detailed drawing of the GT-R engine bay would not only be horribly time consuming but very unnecessary for what we are doing. The turbo is so detailed because its used is so many CAD images that we needed it to be exact for whatever we are placing it in.

Cars are looking great! I look forward to the drivetrain development.

I've worked on several projects which required the whole vehicle to be drawn in cad... I was commenting to the attention to detail on the turbo and lack of detail on everything else that wasn't done with the faro arm. From one Engineer to another that does CAD work... I'm sure the AMS guys would rather spend time drawing a turbo than an engine mount or AC lines... I was just calling them out for being ricers. haha. It's simply because there are things that are fun to draw in cad and there are defintely things that aren't.
Cars are looking great! I look forward to the drivetrain development.

Not all ME fields will be as fun as you see it at AMS believe me i work for an engineering company and is not a cake stress is up the wall.
AMS again very impressive, your CEO has choosen the right path engineering will give you 200% great results, and the fact that you are using CMM equipment is going to be your money maker.
However Erick i dont think you answered one of my questions before about the analysis , i would like to know if you guys have conducted any analysis on your engines, modeling analysis, thermal analysis ect....

Ya i know its hard, but im slowly geting threw it.. Hopefully i will succeed as i plan to and am now. But time wil tell
lol ive been studyin for the best 48 hours for my final 2day ehhh lol

You better polish up on that high end Calc, thermodynamic, fluids and all that crazy stuff for brain maniacs,

Welcome to engineering school. Let the business students do all the partying haha, us engineers handle all of the serious stuff.
AMS, it is awesome you are using 3D design stuff along with the CMM. Once this project is done you'll be able to design other set-ups without actually building it. I often wondered if shops were using this tool, seems like a major advantage to me. I must admit I am extremely jealous of your engineers, makes designing chemical plants mundane. Would love to see more of your 3D models.
This is awesome work and cant wait to see the finished product. Keep it up
