I've searched.
Anyone know anything about air jacks, similar to the ones you see on race cars. It would make maintenance a lot easier. Just don't know the cost or availibilty.

Thanks for any help.

 

I hope he means the kind that are built into the frame, like an indy car

 

Actually I did.

That's a garage jack. Not a body air jack like on a race car.

 

I know it's a ***** to install them.

The e46 motorsport chassis direct from BMW has the tubes already built in. You'd have to cut 4 holes in the chassis, weld in some cans to mount them and then buy the jacks and route the air lines.

Not. worth. it.

 

I thought it might be a pain.
I did find them at essexparts.com made by AP.
I'll call to get a price, but cutting and welding isn't worth it.

Thanks to all for the help.

 

I don't see why those would help much. They raise the car barely enough to get the tires changed. And that's on race cars that are low to the ground and the tires don't travel much once the car is lifted.
The 350z sits much higher, and even after you lift it a few inches the tires are still touching the ground. You'd have to install some long extending air jacks. i would just stick to what has worked before. I can't say i wouldn't wanna see it done though.
