TOO60Z Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 Flares & fender mirrors are so passe. Wheels 5 inches back is where it's at baby! Quote
KatoKid Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 ...and I still don't understanding reasoning for it. Sure the engine needs to go back but sump issues aside the cross-member and wheels can stay where they are??? Quote
RAP260 Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 I'm glad you said that. I was thinking the same thing, but worrying that I had overlooked something obvious. They're going to all the effort of doing the transplant, but don't want to have to reposition the engine mounts?. Am I missing something?. I'm interested, is there something going on in the forward 5 inches of the engine, that means it can't be shifted back relative to the cross member? Quote
Cory Posted April 14, 2018 Posted April 14, 2018 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LyyGioSVGUw Not sure if this build has been posted here yet but it's one of my favourites. There's just something so relaxed and meticulous about this guys approach. Quote
Administrators gav240z Posted April 14, 2018 Administrators Posted April 14, 2018 Always had a fascination with the Corvair, kind of like Tucker motors with their air cooled rear mounted engines. Very cool stuff. Quote
KatoKid Posted April 20, 2018 Posted April 20, 2018 Struggling to take this guy seriously....do admire his can do attitude....but talk about doing it arse about RAP260 and Cory 2 Quote
Cozza Posted April 20, 2018 Posted April 20, 2018 He’s building a tube chassis’d 240z with m5 running gear but they didn’t send him any instructions. Weird huh!! Ive got no idea of his history but I can’t see this project making it to completion from what I’ve seen so far. gav240z 1 Quote
260DET Posted April 20, 2018 Posted April 20, 2018 Can't take that 'build' seriously, suspect that it's click bait. Quote

Administrators gav240z Posted May 1, 2018 Administrators Posted May 1, 2018 Yep ruined a completely restorable car.. I haven't been watching just seen the updates via thumbnails and refuse to watch this mess.. B is for Butchered. GregTas and RAP260 2 Quote
Rickers Posted May 1, 2018 Posted May 1, 2018 I've seen the first one I linked, more than likely not going to watch the second... It was fun watching the BRZ's/Evora. Quote
TOO60Z Posted May 1, 2018 Posted May 1, 2018 B is for Bath water. It’s his and he has definitely been drinking it. RAP260 and gav240z 2 Quote
GregTas Posted May 1, 2018 Posted May 1, 2018 (edited) And after totally destroying the car he tells us he didn't damage the back of the car lifting it off the rear susp so us guys wouldn't be freaking out about a possible dent in the back panel. ???

RLY240 Posted May 2, 2018 Posted May 2, 2018 Couple of laps from both the long and very long tracks at the new Tailem Bend Motorsport Park in SA. Quote
260DET Posted May 2, 2018 Posted May 2, 2018 Wow, wide open, love it compared with the oversize go kart tracks that are around. The name The Bend sounds a bit local though,nothing wrong with Tailem for a race track, I can't pass em so I'll tailem. Quote
Administrators gav240z Posted May 2, 2018 Administrators Posted May 2, 2018 Love this OdinZ and CBR Jeff 2 Quote
HomeBuiltByJeff Posted May 3, 2018 Posted May 3, 2018 Nein Nein Nein! It's available on MT on demand: https://www.motortrendondemand.com/show/jdm-legends/89949002/ I have MT on demand, but I think they just link to Velocity as we still can't watch it here. I am quite annoyed actually, as most of the stuff on MT we can't watch here like Fast N Loud, Street Outlaws, etc, etc. The only things that we can actually watch on there is their own stuff like Roadkill, Head to Head, etc. Quote
