Trolley Jack Lift Pad
luke gtr replied to yates_engineering's topic in General Automotive Discussion
I have also thought about a product like this, but I'm lazy and never done anything about it. Some suggestions if i may? Make the grove shallower, if it's not deep enough, no harm done as you're still lifting from where it's meant to be. If it's too deep, it will lift from the body where the vehicle is weaker. Make the locater round, but make the lift/pad longer. Same weight over bigger area is less lb/in2. I find that's the biggest issue. If you spread the weight out, it really helps the sills. Hopefully make them chemical resistant. Use around oils and fuels, this would nearly be a necessity. And last, don't sell too cheap. I'd pay 20-25 bucks. Take the extra money, and put into more products. If you dont like my ideas, then maybe I'll have to release one Either way, I wish you luck and hope to see these for sale soon -

always will drive better.The 30(or 32 in your case) provides the bottom end so desperately needed for daily driving. It really does transform the car. -

older engines are fine.But, the emissions gear must be that of the car or engine, whichever is newer. Eg, old v8 into new commodore, has to have Commodores emissions gear. Ls1 into hq, has to have emissions gear from the car Ls1 came from. Including the restrictor for unleaded petrol in the tank filler neck. That was the rule a couple of years ago. Don't know if still current. -

They sit very close(pretty much touch)the ac hose. Be sure to heat wrap it so no damage occurs. -

I dropped the subframe as i didnt want to cut anything. I can put my entire career back to original (minus paint) if i wanted. I have a 6 boost, large frame manifold, with the turbo(gt42) I chose, I'm glad I lowered the subframe. Is for sale *wink, wink, nudge, nudge* -

Get a manifold to suit the 30 bottom end, keep the turbo away from the bonnet. Also, spacing the subframe isn't as bad as alot of people think. Drop down to a 0.8mm head gasket to lift comp? The 26 sump has windage trays above the oil pick up. If you can get the crank ones on, bonus. Just so you know, once you go a 30, you won't go back. Good luck. -

Will There Be An Sau Nats In 2015?
luke gtr replied to Wesley James R32GTR's topic in National Events
Either way, horsepower! -
The meeting, they look like they're trying to go Lamborghini-ish with their styling. Trying to get into supercar territory. I don't mind it, but for the price(let's face it, it's going to be very exxy) I'd possibly look at said lambo.
