For anyone who doesnt know already, its a Heads/cam LS1/T-56 powered 93 Nissan 240sx.
The factory IRS setup is known to do 1.4 60's (I doubt it will last) but that isnt cool enough for me. I'm ditching the factory setup for a full 4 link backhalf. Ford Explorer 8.8, beefed Trac-lock, Strange axles, 9" ends, QA1 shocks and rod ends, aluminum fuel cell and external pump. Wheels are 15x10 Prostars wrapped with 325/50R15 M/T ET Street Radials. Skinnies up front with a cowl hood. I want to yank the front wheels :rockwoot:
Its my first backhalf, but I've done my homework. Its VERY VERY scary. I just have to get over the fact I can see the ground through my back window :eek5:
Shooting for 1.4-1.5 60's, 10's with 450HP and a backhalf @ 2500 lbs.
As it sits, I have to re-level the car, take my marks and measurements, drop the IRS, and cut the rest of the floor out. Its dirty as shit, and is getting repainted once it hits the ground again. Hoping to finish it before the Woodward Dreamcruise.
Heres the build thread:
