Megan Ver. 2 Journal

Megan370z · 07-02-2014, 08:56 PM

Welcome into Megan Ver. 2 Journal.
As you may already know, Megan is the name of this sweet looking 370z.

The Version 2 of her Journal should have started when she got an heart attack on August 19th 2012. She needed a heart transplant to survive.
Since I already had one from her cousin 350z 2007 on standby, this was the moment to get the big swap going.

The goal at that time was to swap the HR engine with the VHR crank/rods and some big *** cams !! and of course the 6 speed transmission because Megan came with a 7AT that wasn't up to the task I was getting in to but it was a very nice tranny to use !!

The engine/tranny swap was done between November 2012 to April 2013.
I couldn't get on the track in 2013 to test the new setup due to some ex-wife issue and debts ! which I had to cancel a few events ;/

Then I put my mind to set 2014 as a new year to start setting up the car like I first wanted in 2009 after the car was finally paid off !

The new project started at the end of 2013. I was capable to work on it which I didn't exactly planned and expected to last this long !
It was time to learn on how to make parts with Carbon Fiber & Kevlar

- My first part was a rear bumper over lay for a center exhaust single exit * Click Me *

- After this I knew a little bit more and I could start on the real project.
To look at the aero & bodykit progression . look up in this Album * Click Me *

Fast Forward to July 2014
The project has been relatively slow in the past several weeks due to my upcoming move to another city for my job and then a terrible ankle injuries which is stopping my capability to go safely on the track.

I am currently trying to make the car back together and finishing up some stuff on her before the actual move. There is a ton of work left on her as well as on the trailer then the house !!

so enough with the writing ,
this is where the project is at this point.

Hell yha dude. That looks sweet, nothing more sexy than a home made race car with custom aero. I bet you can hardly wait to let her rip!

thanks ,
hell yeah, I wish I could !!!
Its been way too long and today I had to take a decision to just store Megan in the trailer until I move in a week. Because I need to start packing/cleaning the garage then the house. I should be able to start working back on her around July 18-20th.

Masterbeatty · 07-03-2014, 08:53 PM

your aero set up inspired me to revisit and finish my rear diffuser.

Megan370z · 07-08-2014, 09:13 PM

2013 was a nightmare
2014 is now putting me in Hell...

as a few saw in my older thread about my ankle injury. it is now a very serious one.
We received the report of the MRI and it showed 1 broken bone , 1 bone fracture , 2 ligaments 100% cut . 1x ligament that is about to fail completely 75% cut.
and we now suspect another ligament/tendon/bone cut & fracture on the tibia. which was not scanned by the MRI & X-ray ...

so they put me into a cast and now waiting for a call about surgery.
It seem like no track time at all in 2014 !

I still wish to finish the body work (Ver.1) by the end of September for the last Time Attack event of CSCS.ca
Not driving but showing off with the Z as its gonna be the most attended event in Canada as it include Drag/Drift/show n shirne/ Time Attack

Megan nice work on the CF. Sorry to hear the ankle is worse than you originally thought.

Do you have a thread anywhere with info about the diffuser? Construction, mounting, etc. Looks really impressive
