Well the car at the shop said these arent recomened for tying your car down he said you need to find specific ones used for trailers or over the wheel ratchet straps but cant find any shops that sell stuff like that

truck shops have the good ones...what area u in theres heaps of truck shops in dandy that sell them

Bunnings have some but there expensive and not as good..but they will do the job

personally id be getting something rated at least 2500kg would be perfect

that said i have tied cars down with rope before..

go supercheap auto? they sell straps, i use them to tie down the car on the tandem trailors... they work like a charm, $40 or so for good ones and shitty ones for like 25 or so..

Do not use crappy 1in straps. its the lashing rating that needs to be high. and you want to use 1 per corner.

You run up the back of something you dont want the car on top of you.

Its amazing what some people strap their cars down with...

I bought some from Bunnings. Not sure if i got the correct ones, just some high load ones.

Attached them onto each wheel pulling car forward and back.. Heard this is the best way as the suspension still sways but wheels wont move anywhere?

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.

      You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛

      Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.

      That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together

      I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it.
