By far a baller trailer set up over that harbor freight trailer crap...

For anyone interested in autoX/drifting, or any Z motorsports:

The harbor freight trailer is commonly used by autoX'rs and is just fine for $260 bucks.
The down side on it though:
Is that its 40"x48". So standing tires up side by side with a pole down the middle is not easy with wide tires. 4 each 275/45/17 tires mounted on 17x9 rims measures out right at 43 inches!

Jacobs trailer is a "port-o-potty" trailer - Usually found very very cheap on Craigslist, for about 60 bucks or so....

Dimensionally, they are 44"x48"........... that extra 4 inches makes it super simple to put the cross pole like Jacob and I did on the back.

This is the harbor freight trailer:
ITEM 90153-3VGA:

http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=90153

Notice how 4 each wide tires wont fit barely so the owners of these trailers "build up" the structure to then mount the wheels and put a pole through it...

I put 370z springs on a G last night - looked great. About the same drop as a 350z. I dont know spring rates or what not but we will about ride quality later when the owner updates me with how he likes it.

Morning DFW!
