Awesome build! Thing looks so tough, especially on full lock.

I'll be following!

[na beast]

Id say its in between a gt35 and a 40 but just a guess.

New brake lines throughout entire car including separate hydro handbrake all using speedflow teflon braid

[na beast]

Modified gearbox crossmember to a solid mount setup with just a thin layer of hard rubber to reduce a little vibration, also a brand new 2 piece tailshaft to suit welllll over 1000hp, made by gibsons at edgeworth

Exaust has started, all will be made out of stainless, 4" dump into twin 2.5" straight to the rear.

Decided to make the screamer come out the fender because we could and didnt really have much room to go down because the 4" dump.

sceamer and dump will be hi temp coated and wrapped, also need to make a heat shield for the brake master.

Very nice indeed mate.

How's the fitment of the Getrag 6spd in the skyline tunnel? Much modification needed?

Nice project, something I'd love to do one day as I'm a big fan of the JZ.

[na beast]

size wise in the tunnel is sweet, if anything the bell housing is slightly smaller than an rb box, only thing is its places the shifter slightly further back and have to chop a bit out of the top of the tunnel. in my opinion the rb shifter sat to far forward and always found myself kind of stretching for 1st and 3rd so I like where it sits now. ill get a photo of in the next couple days.

yer wasn't really hard getting the jz to fit either.

Exhaust getting finished

All done.

[Leroy Peterson]

Shit dude, you dont muck around. Fast progress

[na beast]

Just some photos of the lobster back work on the exhaust by Stav Fab and Fitting.

Car is now back at my shed to finish wiring, fit rest of kit and paint.

And the wiring begins! It is made a whole lot easier with the help of a brand new engine harness and sub chassis harness from Chasebays in America. You can choose what engine, injectors, ecu and chassis you have to make it easier. I chose the race sub chassis harness as I'm only going to be running head lights, harzards, Windows, wipers and fuel pumps.

Really cool build man, keep it up!

That loom looks great

[-Jimmy-]

Didn't even know you had a thread on here

Awesome stuff looking through the progress from the start til now.

[Rbdirty30]

Unreal! Good to see your getting stuck into it! Loving the mad lock!

[na beast]

Alrighty guys, been pretty busy with renovating with my brother over the last month and a half but im back into it.

Car is currently off getting the cage done, wiring is probably about half way, will be getting painted over the next few week's, and then just a few bits and pieces to finish her off.

Aiming for a drift day down at Wakefield on the 6th April, will definitely be pushing it to get there but fingers crossed.
