first 2 things i knew i had to cover is the yaw sensor and abs i went ahead and wired in switches so i can cut power to the yaw sensor and abs unit whenever i wanted to. next i went ahead and dropped out the rear end and trans i ended up putting in a south bend 6 puck clutch and the z speed slave and new oem master. and for the rear end i went with a kaaz 2.0 way diff and a nice z1 diff cover unfortunately i never took pics of the clutch install

seat is in for a test fit. once i get everything how i want it then i will start to build the cage around what i want. its better to make the cage around you then to make the cage first and then try to adapt to somthing that you dont feel comfortable in...if that makes sense haha

i found that building a car like this brings out all types of people some that love it and some that think you are an idiot for "destroying" a perfectly good car. i am building this car for me. i always wanted a nice slide car that looks badass and is just an overall fun car i don't care how much money im dumping in to it and how much money im going to lose. don't let others build your car...on that note...say bye bye to the ac, blower motor and heater core.

https://vimeo.com/163969160 well we had a cook out at work on Friday so i decided to take out the z to have a little fun found out i could not do a standing burn out and was pretty upset. found out our cars have a safety feature where if you press both the gas and break then it dies down the car. so i went and decided to take care of that problem and wired in a switch with a inline fuse for the brake lamp now i can do standing burnouts all day!! haha this is a clip from last night having a little fun in the parking lot at work. sorry for my video quality
