New RB Build

[markrolston@mac.com]

Hello RB fans. I've posted before various updates on my first RBZ (http://web.me.com/markrolston/NewSite/Z-Blog/Z-Blog.html)

 

This summer I began building a second RBZ and this time I'm starting from scratch and building a more radical car. I invite you to take a look at the early stages:

As soon as the core IFS and IRS arrive I'll begin fabricating the tube chassis. I'm hoping that by the time we get to the motor I can find used VG38DETTs out there and make the switch from the RB. I'd like a motor with more grunt and available parts in the U.S.

Good luck Mark, Sounds like a heck of a project!

Good luck and keep us updated

 

Your car was what really convinced me into starting an RBZ project.

 

I hope you don't convince me a VG38DETT is better... that's gonna be expensive.

cool stuff but can i suggest you change the font or the color of the font on your web page. Its really really hard to read. But I did like reading what i was able to read. Seems this is going to be one of the wildest s30's ive ever seen or even heard about

I thought my car convinced you? Geez, now what do I do?

Do you mean VR38DETT? As in the new R35 engine?

Hahaha... Mark, your car was the first (and only) RBZ that I've seen in person that actually ran. So getting a ride in it was like a dream come true.

 

And a lot of your help and advice is what has made mine into an achievable project.

 

Your car keeps me motivated!
