Hey guys I'm buying a car hoist from a Chinese supplier and am wondering if anyone else here would be interested in getting one too ? Reason I ask is the more you buy the cheaper it is. I have seen this particular hoist in action and was impressed ! They are 240v single phase and come in many sizes. If interested or wanna know more let me know .... Also if you have had any experiences with these Chinese hoists good or bad let me know I be interested to hear

Ahhh I so badly want a hoist but have nowhere to put one :( lol

I'm not 100% sure but Leon (if you've met him) got his hoist pretty cheap and might be a similar item. Like I said, dont quote me on that, I dont remember where he got his hoist from, I just thought he said it was pretty well priced

Big thanks to Benny Earl and Godzilla Morotsport for all his help over the years. All this work has paid off car made good power.

98 Unleaded 330kw at 18 PSI

E85 430kw at 25 PSI

That's excellent work mate! Very impressive numbers.

100kw power gain through e85? Really?!

Thinking about getting some swaybars for my car. At the moment looking at going whiteline 24mm adjustable front and 20mm adjustable rear.

Open to any suggestions on this. Whiteline have been great so far, thats why I was going with them but happy to switch if someone has found something better :)

Yeah Cal I'd go Whiteline Swaybars they are adjustable and are really good quality. I have Cusco Swaybars on my R33 GTR they where ok but they were not adjustable. With full rose jointed Ikeya Formula Suspension arms and solid cradle bushes on the car it handled like it was on train tracks.

Heard on the radio that they are putting up plans for a full motor-sport complex in townsville. Drag, circuit the works. Fingers crossed it goes through I may have to resurrect the 180sx time attack project. :woot:

    • I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it
    • If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣
    • I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.
    • Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.
    • Not required but appreciated. Super Coppermix Twin even the non-competition model feels like the pedal is noticeably heavier than stock which was pretty well judged IMO. I'll be swapping in the Nismo operating cylinder soon to see how that feels.  Personally I haven't felt anything that justifies replacing the damping loop, at least compared to more modern stuff where the clutch delay valve is actually quite noticeable.
