Team 307 BDC build

[CMD 307]

Excellent work. Inspires me for my 13, I am someone with a motorsport background as well (although not competed). I am nearly fully stripped down ready to roll and weld up the underside. Keep up the good work

Thanks. u got a build page for that buddy? My only advice is trile fit everything!

Not on DW but do have one on SXOC. It's not a fast moving project though as I struggle for time. Would love to be working on it today but looking after son whilst Mrs works.

Anyway, Mandelbug's 200sx S13 that's mine.

After a weekend of fixing my arch mistake i finished up got the car back on its wheel and gave the chassie a clean. So a little late but i give you one rolling chassie

yea geo and ride hight need set proper but that will come! now have to trile fit this engine and new engine mounts

Any one else noticed japspeed parts are hard to get hold of at the moment??

 

[CMD 307]

trile fit one everything looks ok so far

will have to mark the sump for modification

Japspeed G box mount fitted ok

So far plenty of room. have to modify japspeed engine mounts. Engines quite low would like to keep it that way

Will extend the sump a bit to make up for what i have cut out and i hope to still fit a tomi baffel

Modifyed japspeed engine mounts

Fitted areomotive Y and also played with ware to fit the filter

Love the rear brakes. Its a good idea too. The Dragon RX8 has massive Porsche rear brakes and stock front ones for the same reason too- Handbrake is on the button every time at every speed.

 

[hansen]

i agree! you should be able to lock anywhere anytime! alot of people are starting to do this now! looks the tits! good luck with it all! can't be long now until she is finished!

Ive seen them pop up on a few formula d cars so if they see the need for them i thought id give them a go, yes expensive but thought it might make my car stand out a bit

The kit takes a bit of fitting round the geo masters but dosn't need much modification. spaces out the back end a bit as well. Just have to order up all my lines and fittings to get it all plumbed in

Not a lot of guys running mega front brakes. Infact i have heard of guys having front brake failure and running a good run without front brakes. Still look cool though!!!

If it wasn't for my job and general life getting in the way it would be done by now also everythings a learning curb Even fitting the driftworks suspencion its not just a bolt on 5 minite job. I still have a lot to play with to get the lock i desire!. still a lot to do but i will get there. The expensive bit is coming up (engine turbo engine manigment) and i am waiting for a koyo radiator and a new intercooler so i can fab up the front end.

Ill be back on it this weekend so keep an eye out for up dates

 

[CMD 307]

Getting used to fitting and removing this engine

So far the sump mod works have a few ideas about moving the sway bar mounts forward a bit and using custom drop links to help

Going to fab up the front end this weekend !!!!

 

[the hat]

Thank you sir

No turned out it was bad wiring too the coil packs even though it had spark it obviously just wasn't powerfull enough lol but thanks so much for te help fella And good work what happened I thought the car was painted and now the fronts been hit with a grinder again

It was no problem at all buddy glad to hear you have sorted it out

 

[CMD 307]

small update i did fab up part of the front end but ill put up pictures once i have the intercooler mounted and the radiator positioned.


Fitted the pedal box

Need to get the fuel system finished and the brake lines run so have a bit of ordering to do!!!

 

[CMD 307]

small update to show there still work on going! The bit i don't like about the build is project managment ie ordering parts in order or importance!!!


Had to sort out my fuel fittings order

I like when i get boxes like this thre the door!!!!

made a mistake with ordering the intercooler and radiator so once i get them hopfuly next week i can finsih the front end!!!
