Thanks, to answer your question when orignally starting this resto mod build . It was more for car that could potentially track look very good but I wasn’t necessarily planning on tracking it . More to show at car shows . but I think I let everything get away from me because as I started getting into it and buying things I would talk myself up into the better / cooler (to me) options . i really want to make sure the car is reliable and doesn’t break making the whole build a waste. but since I’ve been upgrading it I’m starting to think maybe I should track it as a little side hobby (lessons and what not) since I’m building it I should use it that way. but I’m new to this so if my posts sound stupid I apologize.

Hi It’s 8 point roll custom roll cage for 240z. I got it from the uk. the front strut is the apex engineered triangulated one the goes to the firewall. Do you think stick welding it is needed?

Hi, hopefully this is the right spot to post this question. i have a 71 240z that I am restomoding. I also have a close to 600hp ls3 dry sump engine . if anyone has experience with that much hp in the 240z, what would you recommend to stop it from twisting? I have a full roll historic roll cage. Front and rear strut braces. what else should I look to do?

So I have a 240z I have upgraded to 370z wheel bearings and breaks with upgraded suspension as well. my question is it’s a project car so it’s still going to be a couple years before it’s done. Are there steel rims (like the cheap ones used for winter) that will work for 370z ? When I tried ordering online there was no 370z option just mission Altima. Will 17inches work and fit with 370z breaks?? the goal is just to put old rubber onto cheap steel rims to have it rolling until I’m at the spot to invest into some sport rims and tires

Hi, im in the process of restomodding my 1971 240z. I am upgrading the suspension and changing to 5 bolt pattern to support 370z breaks and 17 inch tires. I also have a wide body kit to go more aggressive on tire width. my question is are stock 370z breaks good enough for track days? ( I’ll upgrade the fluid and pads to be high performance) Or do I need to upgrade the breaks further. the car will be 450-500hp at the crank (ls3) please let me know your thoughts. thank you

So I’ve been in contact with the owner mostly through Facebook. He told me he will be setting up a series of videos on the installation he’s working with a shop . I think that’s a big step in the right direction . I’m not rich or anything but unless I start hearing some really bad stuff about it’s performance I’m probably going to go for it. But I have time, even the owner suggested I wait until the series of videos come out so I can see how much is involved before jumping in. But if more and more people are getting them I’m sure soon enough we will start hearing some real world experience .

Any feed back yet? im debating on doing it myself I really want to use it but I’m not a huge car guy going into this so I have a lot of learning to do. The owner has been super responsive to my questions but still a ton of questions to be answered. What worries me is I cannot find one person who has started this suspension actually on the road . Even the YouTube guy who installed it hasn’t got his car on the road. I might bite the bullet anyways and risk a lot of money if I can a good list of instructions and modifications required to complete the swap.
