BBR shop car build

BBRSpeedWorks · 10-28-2015, 10:48 PM

Poly everything and solid diff and subframe. 12k springs in the back and also a second set for the track also no sway bar in the front. I run BC coil cus I get them for 799 and I can get any spring I want...I would have went solid everywhere in the back but it was over a grand so I'll do that later.

Just out of curiosity what exactly does removing the front sway bar do? I have heard this for years, but never full understood it much. Getting the Z chassis to hook up is a full time job. Ive been trying everything everyone talks about and nothing works. The compression camber on the suspension design is too much for high horsepower builds.

I have solid subframe and diff mounts. I only noticed a difference on handling, But over all nothing on traction.

My next try will be running 28" TALL tires.

Talking it off helps with weight transfer to sit on the the tires. The solid mounts are good but u need to do all the mounts in the back I. E. All the mounts on the rear hubs all that.. what tires are you running? You do not want a z to squat. Squat equals wheel hop.. this is what I do, run the stiffs spring u can get in the back, poly everything, get it aliNed but strap it down as tight as u can get it to see what the car is going to do with the lil bit of swat it has left..make ur adjustments there so ur at 0 wit the lil bit of swat it has left..run ur tire pressure at 15 psi. Make adjustments from there. But this is what I did someone else may go a different route....
For the daily I'll be running nt05r 325
For the track Mt x275 15x1 275 tire

Engines back from the machine shop. Start assembly tomorrow.

BBRSpeedWorks · 10-30-2015, 05:59 PM

Sooooooo I started assembly and was checking oil clearance when I open my nice new bearings from my local nissan to find out they gave me .25 over bearings...
So I'm a lil bummed out and have to see if I can get some asap...

BBRSpeedWorks · 11-06-2015, 12:29 PM

So i got the new main bearings in and pulled a late night, till about 3am but it was well worth it the Short block is complete. Everything lubed and torqued rings gapped and clocked. Now on to heads and cams today.

After a 2nd look. It looks like you might have the Pistons upside down...

No there all in there right none of them hit the oil squirters . The cp piston valve reliefs are the same on both sides they have a cut out on the bottom of the piston for the oil squirters.

Here is idea. Then you could run with the GTR's and UGR Lambo in the 1/2 mile run.

Was going through this thread and I started to climax, but then flop. What ever happened to this build? 6/7 years later.
