Ok im planing on having a wild audio set up with my subs under neith the amp and boost gauge that folds out, so i need help on a kit that with a switch can push the amps up to 90 degree's. It has to be electric and compact

What iv been thinking is a small electric motor with a slow gear and a arm that will push the amp and boost gauge up to 90 degrees. Any help will be good

Cheers

The electeric boost controler is going to be put in the glove box , but have it set up so that with a switch its folds down from the top of the glove box and the amps are going to be put on top of the subs so when on show i can pop the amps up to 90degree's. it sounds crazy but its diffrent and hoping to get it down before autosalon.

it would be lairy...btw.i know nothing about custom audio install.

Start out looking for a electric motor,that not only fits all the desired criteria (size,weight,and the ammunt of angle it has) but will also do what you ask of it.

Do you actually know what the "electric arm's" for the lifting of the amp are called.

going off pimp my ride. I would say they are called linear actuators lol

I was just about to say watch some pimp my ride, there's quite a lot of times they use linear actuators to move things 90 degrees. (most cases big tv's) but they pretty much get an L shaped bracket, attach the actuator to one side, and it pushes the bracket (rotating it) outwards. The thing is they usually bolt the linear actuators to the doors, so just hope you have enough boot space.

Edit - spelling

    • Yeah pretty impressive hey, good to see quality products not over-shooting their prices. That's what drew me to buy the hypergear turbo, just a shame I've never got the chance to see it in action
    • Thank you GTSBoy and MBS206 I have done the compression test with the motor out of the vehicle, reason for the test was to see if I needed to remove the head and do rings etc while its out. I'm in the process of respraying the vehicle and tidying up a few things. Story behind it all is I've just purchased the skyline and it was running when I got it, never drove it on the street though as I wanted to pull it down and do it all up again before registering it. the gentleman I purchased it from told me the motor has a forged bottom end and has a decent tune through it but I was going to pull the sump off anyway to see if it is a forged bottom end. that's why I thought id do a compression test beforehand. 
    • Man, I'm kind of amazed that the price of the turbo has not changed in 7 years. Everything else is inflating beyond reason, but not this? Good on Tao / hypergear I guess? Anyways, good luck with the sale!
    • I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
