STORY
After Modding a buch of modern vehicles and not getting satisfaction, I decided to get something old school: I bought my first 1969 Datsun Roadster and did an S14 engine swap. It was my first old car and didn't knew much about looking for "rust." After twisting the frame on that one, I choose to get another car and found My '68 in Baltimore. I stripped the whole car, Gusset and sandblasted and powder coat frame. Media blasted the whole body and install every bolt, nut and washer new. Also build a S15 SR20DET. To transfer power to wheels I'm using a custom made Mazda RX7 rear differential with 411 gears and LSD. Front brakes we borrow from 300ZX TT and made our own custom 2 piece rotors. SSR Longchamps 15x10.5 /15x7.5 wrapped on Toyos R888. Custom Bride Interior. Custom dash and gauges. SLS AMG matte paint job. the only one carbonfiber hardtop ever made! Carbonfiber fender flares. Full roll cage.
