What like this







I made it to fit the jacking point under the car out of a bit of mild steel

[mole]

Whats the best way to jack these cars up. Is there a special tool designed by a clever someone that fits in the jacking point and that a trolley jack will work with????

If so where do I get it and how much??

Thanks

Love seeing the pics :thumbs:

You will need a low entry jack.

You will need a low entry jack.

I previously owned a thing called a Walkinshaw Group A Commodore (Holden(GMH) V8 with help from Tom Walkinshaw it had a lip that is lower than the CSL and further in front so I made some 2 step ramps so getting it off the ground is no issue but didn't want to try the up in the air bit till I had a better jacking method.

My trolley jack has a round top which hopefully the part mentioned is bigger then all will be good...otherwise a new trolley jack with a flat plate is required it seems.

Hmm might have some bad news for you re the import.......you can't and then get it registered. You can drive it on the track but thats it or at least thats how I understand it to be....I'll do some checking on the DOTARS web site for you.

As to pricing if you can find one, we only got 24 cars out here, I would say around the $110k Aussie or around the $50k pound mark. yes more expensive than in the UK for sure but of course no use if it can't be registered!!!!!

Thank you for the info.

I would really appreciate any info you can find out?

Yes good point I was thinking about the run in bit might have to start from scratch.

Once I get all the fluids done and any computer upgrades done I'll probabaly invest in another set of rims with "normal" road tyres and keep the originals in case I display the car sometime. Won't cry if I kerb them that way!!!!

I wouldn't worry about the top speed limiter, it's not even run in yet lol :thumbs:

edylcreyob, I offer a personalised "engine running in" service, you ship it over, I pay the freight, I will then run it in for you, and then ship you "an" engine back !! sorted !! :whistle:

[edylcreyob]

What and I miss all the fun....no way Jose. I promise I am going to drive it sure it will stay low mileage but I am going to get it run in as soon as I can just another 1000km to go....should be done by tomorrow night:hahaha:
