Pineapple thing, anyone Do-It-Themself??

[West]

Hi ppl, just got a set of pineapple thing for better traction, just wondering anyone here use them? Anyone install it in by themself? Can we actually feel the different?

Thanks,

West.

pineapple thing? never heard of it! sounds interesting though

[West]

Silvia forums :

they reduce axle tramp, and sit above the diff cradle. "a must for the hardcore drifter..."

Yeah like they said, also they can be set for better traction, got it off this guy on Silvia Forum, i asked him if the instruction came with it and he told me yes.

Yeah it did come with it but ALL WRITTEN IN JAPS.

When Jet went to calda the first time, he noticed heaps of axle bounce on his launch, but after he got em put in, NONE, or very little, i would reccomend doing it yourself either coz they could really fck up hardcore and your wheels might fall off

/me looks at Chop

hahahaa

prolly not fall off but might do a fair bit o damage to your suspension

i have to get another set now seeing as i sold mine a wile back... Dr_Drift had some installation guides for em... if u want email me and i will email u the install instructions

[West]

Thanks Narky, you want another set? This guy on Silvia forum sell them for $70 or $80 something a set, i reckon that's pretty cheap.

Ah also i got the catch can from Adel, the one that cost $130 on our forum, so excited, can't wait to get my hands dirty.

130 for a catchcan.../ where can i get one?

thats neat!

is it specific to the car or is it just a general can?

[West]

It's general, but nicely polish, got filter on top and a tiny plastic pipe on the side to monitor the level. Oh and two inlets......little screw on the bottom to drain out. Check the for sale forums Coco.

i wanna get one of those locally made ones in the for sale section... expensive but they look bloody well made

West - i didn't notice much difference on my car.. slightly improved that i could feel but not massive improvements like some claim. I think it can vary depending on what suspension setup you have too.

How they're installed is also important as you can do them for different setting ssuch as straight line, drifting or somewhere inbetween. Ice perf. installed mine

pred, what'd they cost ya at ice, and was that including the parts? Can PM me if you want

[inark]

here i thought rather than email them i would put it up here for everyone to see... care of the great man himself Dr_Drift... crap its too large... oh well wiull just upload it to HERE:

I don't recommend them as they make your tyres wear out real quick

The makes it real clear.

no tony thats ur heavy right foot

[West]

Thank you all, thank you all. Yeah predator666, how much did it cost ya at Ice?

[predator]

I PM'ed Ronin.. Ice got me $120 for the pineapples and i think they charged me $100 for the install.. it was a while ago though.

[inark]

100? man u can get it done for like 50 at a suspension place... they charge like $70 an hour and it should only take about half an hour... they put it on the hoist... undo it all... instead of cutting em like in Dr_Drifts instructions too.
