Space Shuttle Switch Guards We asked NASA for their Rockwell-designed Space Shuttle titanium switch guards but they wanted $800 each (Your tax dollars at work!)…so we made our own hard-anodized aluminum masterpieces. 1.18" wide, 0.90" X 1.04.They fit the standard 12 mm or 15/32" bushing switches with a key slot. We supply these in a CNC version to NASA (Orion) and the military but no longer offer CNC Guards to the public because of cost. The ones we now sell are precision investment castings (The original Space Shuttle Guards were cast Titanium) from A356-T6 aluminum (same as car alloy wheels and engines). Very rugged and look identical to the originals except they’re aluminum, so they’re 60% lighter. They are finished with a hard anodized coating. Investment cast hard anodized P/N PDM-005 Price: US$ 8.99 each (Thanks to Historic Space Systems) The get the discount price, simply offer it to ma and I will accept it. Switch not included of course. 1- $ 8.99 10- $ 8.55 50- $ 7.44 100- $ 6.63 500- $ 5.47 |

Chevrolet Volt plug-in hybrid: the leaked photos
Tue, 09 Sep 2008By Tim Pollard First Official Pictures 09 September 2008 12:00 Images of the production Chevrolet Volt plug-in hybrid car have leaked onto the internet a week ahead of GM's planned shindig to celebrate the brand's centenary on 16 September 2008. The Volt is a landmark model – a hybrid electric car that can run for 40 miles on battery power alone or use the onboard 1.4 petrol engine for further charge. The new Volt will also be one of the world's first plug-in hybrids when it goes on sale in 2010 (2012 for Europe), allowing it to be hooked into the mains to top up the battery.
Nissan GT-R 4 Door Saloon
Sun, 18 Jan 2009But Nissan admits that the GT-R is a loss-maker, which is hardly a surprise. So what can they do to capitalise on the kudos surrounding the GT-R? The route seems to be more models based on the GT-R’s platform, including a saloon and even an SUV.
Future Audis may time traffic lights for you
Tue, 11 Mar 2014Here's a trick efficiency-chasing hypermilers have been using for years: spotting the cycles of stoplights from 100 to 200 yards out and letting the car coast up to the light just before it turns green, then carrying on without ever letting the car come to a complete stop. These hypermilers, along with professional truck drivers, do this because they know that accelerating from a standstill burns the greatest amount of fuel, and because letting a car coast up to the light with the automatic transmission downshifting by itself is easier on the transmission than stomping on the brakes right beneath the stoplight. Oh, and it's easier on the brake pads as well.
