does the stock driveshaft work with the adaptor plate in place or haven't got that far yet? Awesome to see the progress
thats AWESOME Chris, well done mate. Ive so got to see this beast when its finnished. Nice and loud straight out the pipes hey..lol It's Aliveeeeee Cheers Patrick
Should work, haven't tried as of yet. I have used the standard gearbox mount so the distance between the 'box and diff should be same as stock. The sump is leaking a bit still I think I might draw one up in Cad and get it made up by a ally fabrication place.
Haha, probably not Hasn't been run in 2 years or so, so not surprising. Probably had a bit of oil seeping in from the heads and whatnot. I'll worry about it if it doesn't stop Next steps: Coolant system Fix sump leaks Make some extractors, off to the exhaust shop soon to get some 'supplies' Rebuild diff and install LSD Workout if I have to mod my roll cage to comply with stupid QLD transport regs or will CAMS regs be enough. So yeah, bit to keep me busy. :thumbup:
chrispy ... your abilities never cease to amaze me ... congrats on progress to date ... ... and air coolled ... lol.... !!!!
You flatter me Baz... Still nothing compared with your cooking skills at the Chardy Shack! Nothing wrong with air cooled if it's for a short stint It has oil, that's all it REALLY needs.
Hmmm, and how much are we looking at in materials to make a roll cage? This is starting to look financially viable....
VT ss roll cage are around 1400 and cams approved. highly doubt it could be much more for a zed made one? lol. on topic. crispy your car is outstanding. i watched the other 450z video on youtube and that thing was a beast. if its anything to go by, your zed will be amazing! well done with everything mate! kindest regards. rod.
FARK... thats awesome! well done, i cant wait to see this thing rolling around shredding tyres and the road! so whats left on the to-do list chrispy?
