SR240Z reconstruction, SR350Z continued
Well we finally decided what we are going to do with the silver 240Z that we tore apart to do the motor mock-up for the 350Z. Full unlimited time attack car!!!!!!!!!! The current suspension setup it had was Ground-Control coilovers with Tokico Illumina shocks and camber plates up front. The brakes were Arizona Z Car 12.2″ Wilwood front/rear.
We came to the conclusion of ditching this setup and swapping in an S13 complete rear subframe so that we have more gear ratio selections as well as strong axles and a 5-lug setup. For the front we will be running S13 front knuckles and a set of KW Clubsport S13 coilovers thanks to Eddie at Dynamic Autosport. The new brakes are Megan Racing 6-piston 350mm front with 4-piston and 332mm rear.
The 350Z we have been waiting on our FRP body parts to get here so that we can do the front mock-up of the intercooler and radiator. We’re hoping to build a 2.2L stroker engine for this car now and throw the current motor back into the 240Z for time attack since it is setup for more high end rather than mid-range torque. Now on to the pictures of the subframe swap on the 240Z:
