Product ideas
 
I have a general idea of what products I am going to be offering and in what order, but if I get a high demand for certain products, I will make those. I am going to be concetrating on the intake and exhaust side of things, but I can also do other sheet metal or machined parts. I have a very good machinist and water jet company at my disposal. Toss up your ideas and I will consider them!

Right now I will be looking at products that would appeal to a large audience, so one off items probably won't be done right now. Once I get the core products out, I will look at adding more custom things like that.

-SS O2 Housings that can be switched from external to internal
>>(Similar to what Brian Wilson builds @ FP but hopefully not so damn expensive)

Spark Plug Covers? I don't see a whole lot of them out there anymore.. don't know if there's a market there or not.

Re: Product ideas
 
O2 housings were one of the next things on the list. The SS heat shield will be pretty quick to draw up in CAD, so I may do that quick before I do the O2 housings.

For the spark plug covers, are there any certain designs that people want to see? Maybe the "V-tec This *finger*" that they were selling on Ebay?

Re: Product ideas
 
Id be interested in both of those ideas. What about a cover for the battery. Basically like a square cover so you cant see the ugly battery? I dont know if there is market there... just had that idea for a while.

Yes a spark plug cover, maybe one that just says DSM or something. What up air intakes?

Re: Product ideas
 
Polished SS air intakes are planned, but probably won't be out until fall.

A SS battery cover sounds a little dangerous :D

Thanks for the ideas, guys. Keep them coming!

Strut tower bars?

spark plug cover, i'm in the market for one right now, i wouldn't mind one that says dsm, but nothing too much you know, just something simple, (planning on having it powder coated to match my valve cover).

I need a better cup holder for the laser. I could use something to hold a camera, Somthing to hold a laptop. I would like a differnt steering wheel too.

a product that is done give or take 6 months after you anounce its 'done' or 'in progress' or 'new'.
The 02 housings, spark plug plate covers, etc are all things that can be made and thrown on the market with everything else. That being said, the stuff does move, especially if reasonably priced, or of insane quality.

JET 04-18-2005 10:17 PM

Re: Product ideas
 
Strut bars are out there already and dirt cheap. Cup holders etc. probably wouldn't have enough demand.

How many people would be interested in a "DSMStyle" spark plug cover? I would have to check with AJ first, but I wouldn't think it would be a problem. For each one sold a small donation could go to the site.

Since coil-on-plug is all the rage, make a spark plug cover to bolt the coils to.

That would be cool...wish I had a DSM to put one on!

well, i'll put it to ya this way, i'm looking at the ams or road race engineering spark plug cover, so, if you could make one that just said dsm, and included a donation to this site....(but for a reasonable price) i'll pay now. i would love that idea, just absolutely no offense to this site (cause i do appreciate), i don't know about a "dsmstyle" spark plug cover, i just want something simple, hell, i don't care if its plain, i just want a metal one so i can powder coat it. and it is a good idea if a donation is included into this site...hey some extra money is good.

ps- the only reason i'm looking at the ams one, is cause i'm having them build my engine. other wise the rre.com one is plain, no company logos, nothing.

I would like a flat cut & polished cam/valve cover in chrome, with flames cut in it and the 4G63 cut in somewhere.And a matching t-belt cover.

JET 04-19-2005 10:02 AM

Re: Product ideas
 
The flames probably aren't very doable, but I don't see any reason I couldn't do a polished SS valve cover and T-belt cover. It won't be one of the first products out, but I will put it on the list.

I could offer several different spark plug covers, plain, DSM, DSM style and COP ones. The COP ones Switzer uses aren't very high quality. I won't be offerening the full system though, just the cover.

Probably something similar to what DV/DT offers?
