well that sounds super

before we go any further i highly suggest you read the >>SAU guidelines<< and contact the Trader Admin to find out what you need to do to keep your signature advertising your business

i wish you all the best in your endeavors in a very competitive trade but with the premise of opening at weird hours to suit your customer that will appeal to quiet a few i imagine

that's not Ben from Smooth Garage or Simon Michealmore ??

thats wicked...good to hear a garage being open at all sorts of wierd hours to cater for people that work the normal 9-5 hours...goodluck to all involved and hopefully see you guys soon....considering your up north

Any opening discounts? Say... a certain high percentage off the receipt? :P

Yeah we will be giving discount to random people at our meet and greet day.

Yeah Ben and i know how hard it is to get stuff done to your cars when your working long hours. We are also thinking about getting a car trailer so if your cruising around and brake down you can call us and we can come out and bring your car back to our workshop repair it and get it back on the road asap.

now that car trailer idea is a winner works on so many levels and im sure not just import drivers would use a service like that

yes been in the positon of having an unroadworthy car and just getting it to place's for tunes is hard so its also good for those of you with track only cars, and need work done, we can collect and drop the car off to you. Also we are working on all types of cars and not just imports :P

then it should be like $70 round trip i know flat top's to charge about that much

and remember its an inconvenience service

But they aren't a towing company, if they charge you a small fee for towing as long as its going to their workshop, then the cash is made in parts and labour, not dollars per k's.

    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
    • Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.
