Looks like my MX-5 import is landing shortly in Melbourne. Can anyone recommend me a good car transporter to get the car from the docks to the Compliance work shop in the Ringwood area? Got quoted $120 from an agent but I think we can do better :)

I rather not go through the hassel of permits and driving it.

      Disposing of shocks/struts?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Gas springs (ie boot/bonnet struts) will be charged up to about 200 bar. That's a bit scary. Suspension dampers will have maybe 10 bar of N2 pressure, which is just a sneeze, where I come from. Anyone drilling holes in anything, pressurised or not, without wearing safety glasses deserves swarf in the eyes.

      No, because it doesn't run. I did daily my 32gtr with a H pattern dog box for a while. I kind of miss that thing. My Audi has the same levels of comfort. Love the adaptive cruise and night vision camera. Also, my 1968 rn10 hilux kept up with 34gtr's up putty Rd. But, I did have 17x9 volk gtc's on it. The 4 wheels drum brakes never had an issue(this was all at the speed limit, but it actually handled well through corners). Yes they are, otherwise bearing would last longer.

      Depends on who you ask. For the large part, you should be fine. Nissan had us use a special tool on boot gas struts to release the pressure as apparently drilling could be dangerous. Could just be the excess pressure and possibly of blowing swarf into your face. Normally, we have never worried about releasing pressure before disposal.
