frank280zx Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Well it is getting together i seam welded the rear sub frame and trailing arms.. swapped the bushings for poly ones .. and test fitted my 17" 10 J not a bad lip! and from testing it seems to work out fine here is a picture of the rim with arm attached and a brake disk in between, it space it clear of the arm. Sofar they only thing that can go wrong is the filler neck as far as i can tell, but that would be a sign i have to get a fuel cell sooner than i wanted My OBX HLSD is all done aswel. I plan on using a MSA sway bar kit with end links. this way i have minimum rubber and polyurethane. Next week 300zx cv axles and bolting up the rear sub frame so it is ready to be swapped on the car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jp 280 Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 Hey Frank, are you going to be using a handbrake with your set up? over here we have to keep it for street use and i havent managed to find something to replace the stock setup, was hoping for something to fill up my 18" wheels.

VinhZXT Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Frank, What do you have to do for the 300ZX axles to fit the 280ZX? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frank280zx Posted March 27, 2007 Author Share Posted March 27, 2007 Nothing Vinh... they are the exact same lengt.. for the front however you need to adapt the arms. These are two strengthened and seam welded front control arms, we measured that they needed a 25 MM extension for my 8,5 to fall within the fenders top and clean up the camber issues involved with running a z31. Thanks VA-Motorsports!!(my friends shop) i keep learning from them:038: Only they would TIG weld for costumers etc .. but watch and learn from teh pro's!it is great to watch and learn to think that motor sport way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
