It's a long shot, but you can always ask an admin for his email address... Tell the admin that the ability to contact him is in the best interest of the network? lol...

Guys,

I apologize for not replying sooner but very busy at work.

First, let me say that lambo doors on the SVX have been done (not perfectly) but notheless done!



This image was my inspiration! A couple of points:

1) My car will look like this by the end of the year ;-) but better!
2) The doors weigh closer to 200lbs
3) The require 300ft pd dual struts to easy lift and maintain a 90 degree angle and lift.
4) The best kit is sold in CA (the only one I would ever recommend) for $1000.
5) Proper installation (in the US) should cost $1000-1500, depending on where you are and who is doing it. The price is high because of the steel safty beams that go through the doors for structural integrity (more work to dismantle and install than a civic)

Side note - the company that you can buy the kit from will also recommend an installer if one is available in your area.

6) the lambo car kit in this picture was purchased and installed for $2000 (not the CA company) and the doors issues staying up and closing properly. So be careful, all lambo kits are not alike and more importantly- you get what you pay for!

Good luck and if I can help you in any way, PM me.

JT

Spear,

Unfortunately, I could not find the measurements but I found the company in CA that has the lambo kits that work with SVXs. I am sure if you ask them for the specifications (without telling them that you are developing a similar kit) they will give you the specs and whatever else you need.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=36475

good luck and keep us posted.

Joe
