Re: adjustable alloy strut tops

[Brad HALLETT]

Bugger I just replied to you Wardy along this vein.    As I stated though, I fully agree with you - there is a right way and a wrong way and I think for the extra $$$ proper engineering is the only safe alternative.   There is probably a good business incentive out there for someone with a bit of nouseand in the business (like Errol for example) to sell proper engineered wares through the web, if only to ensure that dodgy ideas don't wind up on the road next to you and I.  My 15 years of working on racing machines has led me to believe that if you do it right first time it is worth the wait and extra $$$, as you can confidently drive to the limit without endangering yourself or others.   Brad HALLETT Ipswich, Qld ----- Original Message ----- From: Mark Ward To: Ozdat Mail List Sent: Thursday, July 13, 2000 2:55 PM Subject: adjustable alloy strut tops I am to be corrected, this link was not from Brad, but CP.  So I take back any inference that Brad was involved in modifying strut tops.   Apologies, Mark Ward     C.P., please don't take this personally, I do admire the ingenuity of your idea, but it seems pretty shonky to me.  I fully believe in freedom of information, ideas and expression of them, particularly on the internet.   But putting a dummy bolt in, for goodness sake.  The engineers at Nissan didn't put three bolts in the mount for the sake of it.  Sound enginnering principles were adhered to and obviously three bolts are used for a reason. Further suggesting that you might need to superglue the plastic covers down to stop people looking under them only re-enforces the shonkiness of the excercise.     I would suggest that doing it right the first time and getting it enginnered (ie camber kits, factory offset strut tops etc) removes the legal problems associated with it, and the fact that if something does break, it won't be on your head.    Particularly if you crash and kill someone.   Wardy ----- Original Message ----- From: CP To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, July 12, 2000 12:43 AM Subject: Re: Adjustable alloy strut tops Try this.  Something I just whipped up....Might be of some use....not adjustable but real cheap to make   www.five10.com   Click on the suspension mods link.... if cant view it go here instead   http://members.optushome.com.au/amaxeng/five10/offset.htm       --   --- Original Message ----- From: Brad HALLETT To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, July 12, 2000 12:09 AM Subject: Adjustable alloy strut tops Thrill Seekers, Looking for a pair of adjustable alloy strut tops to suit 240K struts.    Thanks Brad HALLETT Ipswich, Qld --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
