Got a few updates on my build.
I threw my drag pack on and my v1 nismo wheels got stolen so I picked up a set of ray gramlights fxz57 overseas edition paired with 285f 325r nitto invos.
Took a long time for those wheels to come in so naturally I had to race on the slicks and of course I snap an axle AND a diff mount first race. Got it home and the diff was just handing by the one DSS axle I have on the passenger side…
Had to replace the diff cover so just ordered a high cap Z1. I had a ton of metal on the drain bolt so I hope everything in the wavetrac is OK. Threw it all together with some new motul and car has been driving fine since.
Lowered the front of the car on some BC racing BR coil overs. Lowered the rear with SPL midlinks and swift springs while retaining oem rear shocks. Got new SPL front end links as well to replace the worn ones I had. I have that weird pop in the front suspension and I can’t figure it out. I tried the lock nut on the sway bar/end link connection which seemed to help most people but it didn’t help me so I’m just gunna look at it under a lift once I get it aligned.
I traded my SOHO manifold for a different clutch just because I haven’t been enjoying the specialty Z clutch too much. Picked up a new OS giken quad plate. Overkill I know but what a beautiful piece lol. It weighs a freaking ton. I really don’t want to go built motor till I see a fair amount of people not lifting the heads at 1k+HP so I’ll just play around with the stock long block for now. No need for the soho manifold so I just traded for that OS clutch.
At about 20k of TT driven miles, trying to catch up to you old timers
