rps30 build


Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

 

well i think my build is finally on the way.

I already tore down my s13 car and sold the shell.

Now the rear suspension will be grafted onto the rear of the s30 as well as the front cross member.

 

I know everyone will wonder why and to copy someone else's statement.

 

1) Easy to source parts for CHEAP (and easier to replace if broke)

2) I know and understand the S13 suspension and culture. I have a lot of friends who can get me parts on the cheap.

3) I wanted something different.

4) It widens the stance of the 240Z by a few inches.

5) I have already spent quiet a lot of $$$ on upgrades to the s13 suspension. Including z32 brakes, coilovers, 5 lug hubs etc.

 

I also have a fully built sr20det that made 377 rwhp on a Mustang Dyno @ 11psi.

 

Here are my pics so far.

Well Its been a couple of years in the shop with nothing done to it. After getting back from Afghanistan It was about time.  The s13 suspension was fitted in. I also fully modified the front suspension with a doing away with the McPherson strut system and replacing the crossmember with a Double A-Arm front suspension with coil-overs. it was NOT a "Mustang II suspension but designed more like the Camaro/Corvette style suspension. The front also has 13" Wilwood brakes with manual Rack and pinion steering. 

 

As soon as I can figure out how to post pics I will share with you.
