adam8103 Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 here is the story, a little while ago i picked up 1971 240z, she is a little rough on the cosmetic side but floors frame rails have been redone, there is already the toyota truck brake upgrade on the front and the 280zx rear disc conversion, she already has lowering springs on new shock inserts, also has a fuel cell. So my plans are to make it a race car and make it look nice inside out and install a 2jz ge (NA-T). i already have a bunch of parts left from my 1000whp 2jz sc300 lexus. I still need to get, tranny, rear end, drive shaft, wheels and tire anda lots of other things to build and put together the engine, but everything should come along durring the summer. Hoping on taking it out before the winter starts. I have been taking some pictures since i started on this here are some pictures no great quality pictures just to share! i started taking the dash apart to fix the spaghetti incident issue after taking out all the wires it was time to make the dash harness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
