jackso11 Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 I am sure I read a post about this when I first joined up 4 years ago but have been searching all day and can't find it. Basically, is there a way to increase the power of the boot lifts to make the boot lighter? I am going to go spoiler-less for a while and realised over the weekend that I won't have anything to hold on to to lift the boot open. Also, totally off topic, but does anyone know who has photos of 2 spoilerless black supras that look almost identical in their garage? Found them the other day and can't remember what I was looking for at the time so finding them again is proving impossible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexM Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 You'd have to replace the boot struts with another set that have a higher pressure, could probably find a set on ebay.. however, the boot will be a fair bit lighter without the spoiler so you probably won't need to! As for lifting it, just put your fingers under where the toyota badge is and lift it from there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Did this just happen? Have you thought about spraying your dials too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackso11 Posted September 1, 2009 Author Share Posted September 1, 2009 Yeah I thought it would be a fair bit lighter. Guess I will just wait and see what its like. My struts are in perfect working order, just thought there may be a way of increasing there power. I just want enough power to launch people over my car if they sat on the boot. You reckon thats possible? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

devan Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 I took my spoiler off a few weeks ago to sort out a leak, and it hardly weighs anything! I was really surprised at how light it was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
