Welcome to the IHoP v.2

[jonbearsmt 919]

im building an amp rack, the bottom will be birch ..l im putting on a surface that i can not screw into becaue  the fuel tank is below it....

 

 the surface is coated in ford factory dampener, 

 here is the question,

 

 i need it to stick VERY WELL.. but i also need to be able to remove it if i ever have issues.

 

 so VHB tape or liquid nails to mount the plywood to the car?

[Tirefryr 1,742]

Use silicone.  Clean the dampener very well with alcohol, then simply silicone it in place.

Trade Percy Harvin and sign Greg Jennings?  I don't get it.

Still somewhat of a stupid question, Sean. How am I going to put it on if it's stitched together? It's a closed circle, not a pipe with two ends.

But yeah. I wrap it around the wheel and start sewing and pulling and fitting.

I said it was stupid, but I'd ask how you stitch it when it's tight.

Drove a CL65 AMG today, twin turbo V12. Did front brakes (4 calipers in front, 2 per wheel).

 

People really pay $225K for that car? What a fucking waste.

Mechanical wreck too. My buddy had one that got lemon'd

Percy would have sat out, refused to sign here. Considering we got a shitload for him. Plus we got him out of the division and took Jennings from a rival. GB got worse and we got better. Works for me.

 you think it will work i have HEAVY vibration out of my trunk. 155 dbs plus in the trunk

[Tirefryr 1,742]

That vibration is no more than normal chassis flex that floor pan sees every day.  Think about how well silicone holds a gasket in an engine with heat cycles, extreme temps and constant temp changes, elements, fuels, oils, and solvents, vibration and harmonics, etc. . . It's also used to seal enclosure gaps without issue and in that instance would be much thinner.

Or you could use all thread and hang em off the rear deck.

ahh i was thinking shower calk at first..  i have used ultra black RTV before it works REALLY WELL.. i used to normaly to mount my remote gains,  plyable  has a little give but is a  bitch to get off !!!  but it does let lose when  you NEED it do .. good call

 

 thanks bro.

 i think my back deck is a little too thin.. and it may give me more vibration then i want.. i think what im working on will be the most solid thing....

 

 lord i hope so.. i dont want to fuck my amp up again because of vibrations.

I wonder how the situation in NK is gonna affect amp production this year.

 yeah i cheked them out before when you posed it.. but i cant understand most the specs.. and the specs i can.. it reads its made for weight around 600 LBS  and higher.. i feel it would be to riged for my use.

[MKader17 332]

Nah, I flew in yesterday. Short visit in Charlotte. Tomorrow doing consulting at Borg Warner and then a flight home.

Oddly enough I was in a presentation by some Borg Warner folks on the same day.

You weren't in Asheville were you? If it was Diesel Turbo related, that is the group.

Oh no, they came here. It was friction plate related for transmissions and axles.

In and effort to promote the high-speed grip of its new Hakkapeliitta 8 winter tire, Nokian threw a set of its new rubber on a race-prepped Audi RS6 and got moving – very, very quickly. In fact, on March 9 on top of the very frozen Gulf of Bothinia near Oulu, Finland, Nokian's test driver Janne Laitinen set a new world record for the fastest speed recorded driving on ice. If you'll recall, this isn't the first time that Audi and Nokian have played this game, either.

Using the guidelines set forth by the Guinness Book of World Records for such things, Laitinen averaged 208.602 miles per hour (335.713 kilometers per hour) over the course of two runs on natural, untreated ice. Another constraint is that the ice speed record must be done using commercial available tires, which is obviously great PR for the new Hakkapeliitas.

Right Stuff. It is the best silicone available outside a dealership, and even inside most dealerships.
