Published 2012-08-12
Sup guys,

Here's a short update on the Z. I really didn't want to upload this until I had some more mods done, but considering how long its been I went ahead and made another clip. Some legal race footage n stuffs coming soon

    I love that you included music from legends at the end man :P and with both tires not being stretched, i think you're running a 15x7 F and a 15 7.5 R, though i vaguely remember you having a light stretch, so maybe 7.5 F and 8 R
  • @jaydemdorifto
    Yes it will, my 16x8's are a 0 offset with the 10 mm spacers. However, you will more than likely need to roll/pull the fenders if you're low and you have no flares.

    Yes actually! The beta build was a bust. Turns out the job wasnt done correctly and as such i had a major oil leak, my belt stopped spinning my water pump, my car over heated, i warped the head and blew my head gasket. I'm have the Z re-worked at my friends shop R&D Factory. Once i get her back on the road ill be updating! Also i started a turbo z31 project too! so ill be introducing her shortly :D

    yupyup. Updates to be had: new cam and supporting mods, further head work, pistons, rings, crank work, updated damper, updated header, and flywheel
  • @BrickMuffin
    well thats the thing! im not exactly sure why the leak started but i have a feeling it had something to do with my crank case over pressurizing due to all the damn blowby. As for the head, fortunately it was still useable. i got super lucky on that one. Only .1016mm of the head needed to be shaved. the motor's currently getting re-ringed so as soon as we start re-assembly ill be able to see the true cause of the leak! oh yea, im all ready prepping my first z31 clip!

    DAMN that is 200 wheel HP. I am very afraid for when mine is done, probably dyno it and never push it hard again.
  • @Perfect240Z
    Make sure you post everything to Hybrid Z. Hopefully your new build will work this time around.

    Thanks bud! there 15" SSR Formula Mesh. I'm not 100% sure on the dish and offset. I'm running 205's in front, and 225's on the rear. both tires are stretched, so im guessing a 8inch front and 8.5 to mayyyybe 9inch rear.

    Actually I just put together the old Frankenstein set up: V07 Crank N42 Head F54 Short Block L24 Rods KA Pistons
  • @BrickMuffin
    ehh, i meant to say "tires are NOT stretched"
  • @spooln30
