Hey guys so i recently put some coilovers on my skyline v36 370gt and its quite low i have trouble getting over speed bumps but i can sideways crawl over them but today i tried driving up my Dads driveway but it literally could not get up whatsoever even if i drove sideways up it does anyone have any suggestions? Ive heard about putting planks down but i have no idea what to do? Hopefully someone can help me out here. Thanks guys. ive also attatched some images to give a better understanding of my dilemma.

Seriously though, you could try reversing in, I have this issue at my mum's place which has the usual 45/60 degree gutter, can't go in front ways, but reversing up is fine, it would be much more severe than what that your dad's looks like

2 pieces of 4mm steel plate about 600 long, with some 25mm square bar welded across the underside half way along.  Use them as ramps, with the square bar located across the bottom of the slope to fill the gap between the plate and the concrete.

If that doesn't work, adjust length of plate or thickness of bar upwards, as required.

Or, put coilovers up to practical height.

    • You still want a proper tune on the stock ECU though. Stock tune + stock ECU with GT-SS/-9s is probably playing with fire if you're running more than stock airflow/power.
    • I like their veal scallopini.
    • Definitely a hearty eater when we go out, I consider these meals my cheat day as I've been watching my calories in and calories out pretty hard since my little fun size stroke, I've gone from a fat boy of 89 Kg, I'm only 165cm tall/short, down to a almost semi lean 73 Kg over the last few years, I'm currently around 17% body fat which my doctor is very happy with, but, my goal is to slowly get down to and maintain 15%,so yeah, I want all of the protein, carbs, fats and sugars when I go out for a binge
    • There was a great one on Victoria Rd in Gladesville too back in the day. I can only assume GTSBoy is thinking of the mill up on the wollondilly, no restaurant there any more but they have restored the original steam engine on site and run it every few months, have an annual steampunk festival etc @The Bogan, you came to the wrong town for restaurants. we have a few reasonable asian and indian options but the Paragon is as good as it gets otherwise. That brewery is apparently just opened, been meaning to give it a go some time. The Highlands have plenty of fancy options but I suspect you are more a hearty eater than fancy eater
    • Thanks for coming back to post the update, maybe it will help out the next person!
