Don't lump me in with them. I'm an enthusiast of mechanic design, be it engines, weaponry, or productive machinery. Not a guy with a wrench that reads the marketing garbage AFE/insert other "enthusiast" brand that can't legally warranty half of their products.

 

I fail to see a correlation between people screeching variations of "forced induction is more efficient!!! Reclaimed energy!!!" and anything I've said.

If you can't be civil. Please leave

 

Edit. That goes for everyone in the thread

It is adjustable. There are two little buttons in the car that raise and lower the car. 4 setting IIRC.

 

The Infiniti is still alive, albeit barely. Falling apart, as always. Motor is getting pulled out next summer and I'm most likely scrapping the shell. I'll get more money like that than if I try to sell it. 

Are all independently adjusted or is it like something else?

 

i say just find a new motor and put it in and bring it back to life.

I saw one that went under a folding back seat for a truck... what's it going into?

..tools.. I found this and this on Amazon but the Stack-On isn't long enough and the Wright isn't tall enough.

No, they're all controlled simultaneously. Although they automatically adjust to keep your car level

 

Nah. Not worth it. The condition is probably a 3/10. I'm pulling the motor cause thats the only thing worth money in the car. Rest is getting scrapped. It's served well, but it's usefulness is coming to an end. One more winter, and it's going bye-bye.

Don't even think about the junkyard. Sell the body as a rolling chassis. Let someone else take the project.

I don't think it's silly. If anything, it's more tasteful than any JDM car out there (sorry.)

I've looked at that a while ago and my problem is that I can't remove it as whole to take tools to a different vehicle/area when needed. I've been looking for a tool box that's around 20 inches long because I can still stick it under the 2/3's seat with all my tools and any equipment and still say take it over to our Mustang if I need to work on it without having to run back and forth or get a bag to move tools. Plus the Husky box doesn't really play well with the stock jack and bars. :(

My other problem is I'm only finding plastic boxes around the size that I want and having a lot of tools in there and carrying it eventually breaks the plastic, which isn't fun. Dx
