Im trying to get window nets sorted out for the comp car,

I would prefer the string type ones but cannot find a reasonably priced source? any one know of a better option?

[SuziBlu]

tanshi, what do you want, I can get "string" in just about any size you want, I'm an ex commercial fisherman, and all my mates are still there, netting is generally nylon, and from any inch size you want, and thickness.

Very common is 150mm by 6mm. (around 350lb breaking strain) This is streched length, so its around 106mm square.

I can get smaller, bigger, whatever you want.

We used to use trawl nets cause they are so cheap, strong and can be zipped tied on to anything.

go the green so it doesn't interfier (sp) with your periferal ( out the corner of your eye) vision

[tanshi]

is it best to tape and hem the sides?

[SuziBlu]

Green is generally polypropylene or polyethylene, a much weaker material than nylon.

But, if you use trawl, its usually pretty heavy shit.

I can get trawl, set, static, poly, nylon, white, blue, red, black, your call.

Just the shipping price is all.

chris mills performance and rocket industries are the main suppliers to the drag racing fraternity, google them, they will post it out to u
there are different size's so make sure u get the biggest
they are about $40-50 and come in 4 colours

[tanshi]

this is around 18inches by 24 and pretty much how i want one. the ribbon type ones cut alot of vision down

[SuziBlu]

[tanshi]

thats just the way they make the ones you can buy.

by the looks the squares are between 1.6 and 1.8 inches

[SuziBlu]

Its a dead easy way of doing things, as net makers go, its a poor substitute for quality.

Hey mate, message dank on here. He can get the string ones for a good price.

Dragging this up again

Which are the best types and where can you get them from around Brisbane or at least here before TT rd 1

[tanshi]

tried Motorsport accessories in northgate?

[burls]

Yeah that seems to be the going rate, 40 bucks for a net and 50-60 for the fitup kit. Looks like what l gonna be up for

[tanshi]

Just use press studs for the fitting

[burls]

Sounds like a good idea, would have liked to get one of those ones with the string netting rather than the webbing to get better visuals

[just_cruizin]

I bought the netting from a sports supply company, got the strap for the outside and go old mummy sewed them up, go 4 for about $30

[tanshi]

yeah i use the net ones too. i shipped mine from over seas though

[burls]

Nil time for OS stuff now
Ive got a web one coming from superior but still want to look into the net option

[just_cruizin]

That might get me out of a bind
Where are you or importantly the nets?

[just_cruizin]

Nets are in Joyner but I'm not. I'll try and sort something out for you this week.

[burls]

Possibly get it couriered to ARB acacia ridge? Obviously I'll pay (somehow)

[Bruce]

Greg, get Nat to drop them at my work and I can take them to round 1.

[burls]

Gents

[just_cruizin]

Ok, let me know if you need it.

[burls]
